Issue/Introduction

The COVERED_ADD command can be issued from the system console, running a DBUTLTY COMM function or executing an SQL query (e.g. via DBSQLPR) but fails using all these three methods:

• Console:
  F jobname,COVERED_ADD 001,IXX,105,F,0
  returns:
  DB01311I - COVERED_ADD 001,IXX,105,F,0
  DB01335I - CONSOLE SCHEDULED - COVERED_ADD 001,IXX,105,F,0
  DB00605E - CONSOLE BAD SYNTAX - COVERED_ADD 001,IXX,105,F,0
  
  
• DBUTLTY:
  COMM OPTION=CONSOLE,OPTION2='COVERED_ADD 001,IXX,105,F,0'
  gets:
  DB13001E - UNEXPECTED RETURN CODE 94 (129) INVALID DST CONTEXT
  DB10045E - ABNORMAL TERMINATION DUE TO ERROR(S)
  
  
• SQL Query (DBSQLPR):
  INSERT INTO SYSADM.SQL_CONSOLE (MUF_NAME, CONSOLE_COMMAND ) VALUES ('mufname', 'COVERED_ADD 001,PMF,105,F,0');
  gets:
  SQLCODE = -117, SQLSTATE=S9481, DB RETURN CODE = 94(129) 
  MESSAGE = RAAT/CBS ERROR: CMD=ADDIT TBL=SQX DBID=00998 KEY= RC=94 (129)

Environment

Release: 15.1
Component: Datacom

Cause

The code related to this command requires that at least one MRDF area already exists, i.e. there was at least one valid VIRTUAL or COVERED card in MUF SYSIN when it was started.
By default, CBS index (IXX006) and IXX and TTM areas of DBID 17 are defined as VIRTUAL areas.

Resolution

Be sure that the MUF region has been started with at least one COVERED or VIRTUAL card in the Startup Options before using this command.
