Issue/Introduction

IDMSDBAN reports issues message DC598604 - UNCONNECTED MEMBER(S) IN MA SET: <Set-name>.

What does that actually mean? How can this be corrected?

Environment

Release: All supported releases.

Resolution

DC598604 indicates that DBAN found occurrences of a record type that was defined as a member of a Mandatory/Automatic set that were not connected to the set. This is a logical database error with no broken chains. This is usually the result of someone running a job with a different subschema (that defined the record as optional) and disconnecting the record.

If the set is an indexed set, rebuild that index from all rows.

If the set name is a chained set, locate the offending record by running an area sweep on the record type testing for NOT MEMBER OF SET and accept DBKEY. Once the dbkeys are found, connect the members to the set, through a program or DMLO, using a subschema that defines the set as Optional Manual.
