GIM54501S ** ALLOCATION FAILED FOR SMPHOLD BECAUSE THERE IS NO DD STATEMENT IN THE JCL AND NO DDDEF

>>>

GIM54501S    ALLOCATION FAILED FOR library BECAUSE THERE IS NO DD
               STATEMENT IN THE JCL AND NO DDDEF ENTRY IN THE GLOBAL ZONE.
 
               Explanation:
 
               library   ddname of the library
 
                         If this is in the form SMP#####, the library is
                         part of a concatenation.  Message GIM54601 shows
                         the ddname of the library for which the
                         concatenation was done.
 
               SMP/E was trying to allocate the indicated data set but could
               not find the required DD statement or DDDEF entry.
 
               System Action:  A subsequent message identifies the system
               action.
 
               Programmer Response:  Do one of the following:
 
               o   Add the required DDDEF entry to the zone.
               o   Include the DD statement in the JCL used to run SMP/E.
 
               Then rerun the job.

 

During the Base install of the R20, the SDSNLOAD DDDEF SDSNLOAD pointed to the DB2 SDSNLOAD dataset. During the Apply when SMP/E tries to allocate the SDSNLOAD, the job fails with

GIM54701E ** ALLOCATION FAILED FOR SMP00019 - IKJ56228I DATA SET DATA SET db2.SDSNLOAD NOT IN CATALOG BE ACCESSED.       GIM54601E ** DYNAMIC ALLOCATION FAILED FOR SMP00017 BECAUSE SDSNLOAD IS PART OF THE SMP00017 CONCAT ALLOCATED.
 GIM69149E ** CALLLIBS COULD NOT BE ALLOCATED FOR LMOD IDBPDTCC IN ZONE TZN.
