IEC130I TLMSOPTS DD STATEMENT MISSING running CAS9

Products

• TLMS Tape Management

Issue/Introduction

CAS9 for TLMS failed with the following messages:

IEC130I TLMSOPTS DD STATEMENT MISSING

CATL116E OPEN FAILED FOR OPTIONS DATA SET

CATL040E TLMS OPTIONS(IPO) INSTALL FAILED RC=0016

CATL030E TLC6INIT: UNSUCCESSFUL INITIALIZATION

Cause

Required DD statement TLMSOPTS DD was missing in CAS9 Procedure
 

Resolution

Add the following DD statements for TLMS to the CAS9 Procedure:

//TLMSOPTS DD DSN=CAI.CTAPOPTN(TLMSIPO),DISP=SHR

//CTSOPTNS DD DSN=CAI.CTAPOPTN,DISP=SHR 

NOTE: simply rerunning CAS9 after these DD statements have been added will fail with:

CATL003E INIT ALREADY PERFORMED, USE REINIT 

Use the following REINIT statements in CARIMPRM to reinitialize TLMS.

PRODUCT(CA TLMS-PRD) VERSION(TLC6) INIT(TLC6INIT) - 
LOADLIB(CAI.CTAPLINK) - 
PARM(REINIT,OSI=REINIT,LPA=ALL) 
PRODUCT(CA TLMS-PRD) VERSION(TLC6) INIT(TLC6INIT) - 
LOADLIB(CAI.CTAPLINK) - 
PARM(REINIT,SMF=YES) 
 
Running CAS9 with the REINIT statements above will result in Error Message

CATL039E TAPE ERROR EXIT - NOT INSTALLED   

This is expected for the first REINIT statement. The second REINIT statement using SMF=YES will install the missing Exit confirmed by message

CATL037I TLMSSMFE SMF EXIT LOADED  


NOTE: Since only up to 32 characters can be passed in the PARM field, two REINIT statements are required since a combination of all required parameters (REINIT,OSI=REINIT,LPA=ALL,SMF=YES) would exceed this limit and will fail with 
 
*CATL006E INVALID CAIRIM PARAMETERS FOR TLMS 

Additional Information

After successful REINIT change statements in CARIMPRM back to be sure TLMS will initialize successfully at next IPL.

PRODUCT(CA TLMS/MVS) VERSION(TLC6) - 

LOADLIB(CAI.CTAPLINK) - 

INIT(TLC6INIT) PARM(INIT)

NOTE: the LOADLIB statements above are optional and can be omitted, if the TLMS CTAPLINK is in the LINKLIST concatenation.
