Issue/Introduction

Executing Fast Load for Db2 for z/OS (PFL) under the Batch Processor for Db2 for z/OS (RBP), the following messages are returned:

    IEC130I PTIMSG DD STATEMENT MISSING
    PTIMSG DDName Missing or Failed OPEN

This is an attempt to restart a failed PFL job due to a previous sort capacity exceeded error.  What would cause the above messages to be returned.

Resolution

The RBP EXEC card was incorrectly modified to specify:

    //STEP1 EXEC PGM=PTLDRIVM,REGION=4M,
    // PARM='SUFFIX=00,EP=UTLGLCTL/ssid,RESTART( CURRENT )'

The original RBP EXEC card was established as follows:

    //STEP1 EXEC PGM=PTLDRIVM,REGION=4M,PARM='SUFFIX=00,EP=BPLBCTL'

The .CALL UTLGLCTL statement was correctly modified within the RBP input to include RESTART(PHASE) to resolve this problem.

    .CALL UTLGLCTL PARM(ssid,RESTART( PHASE ))
