Issue/Introduction

Getting the following error when trying to Import a CA 7 Database:

DB00311I - LOG AREA IS 100% FULL, SPILLING TRACK NONE, OUT OF 2027      

How should I handle this problem?

 

Environment

Release: ALL
Component: Datacom/AD

Resolution

• You should prevent the LXX becoming full. Getting 100% full message stops your Multi-user.
• You still need to re-allocate the LXX larger. Consult your Using Product Support for information.
• Spilling should be an automated activity if not then you need to check on regular basis how full is the LXX.
• If it happens you need to SPILL the LXX into the RXX. 
• A SPILL job is provided in the Datacom/AD library INSTJCL:
  • in 14.0 member INSTJCL(AD14LXXS)
  • in 15.0 and 15.1 member INSTJCL(AD15LXXS)
