Running IDMSBCF with ARCHIVE LOG abends with error:

BAD BIND ON AREA
ERROR STATUS = 0966

The CA IDMS CV always readies the log area in retrieval mode. Only the log archive job will ready the area in update mode.
​If an archive job fails, the area is left locked and subsequent ARCHIVE LOG commands will return the 0966 error status.

Release: IDADSO00100-18.5-ADS-for CA-IDMS
Component:

To resolve the error the SYSTEM.DDLDCLOG area needs to be unlocked before archiving the log.

Run IDMSBCF with the following input:

UNLOCK AREA SYSTEM.DDLDCLOG;
ARCHIVE LOG;
