Issue/Introduction

From running a SARDBASE /ADDDS, the following message is received:

SARDBI01 Data file allocation failed for VIEW.DB1 - ERROR=970C
INFO=0000 DS=036.

Environment

Release: View 14.0

Cause

The ERROR=970C indicates:

1. The number of cylinders specified, for one database extent, exceeded the maximum of 4369.
   
   
2. The block size specified either exceeded the maximum (32760) or was less than the minimum (3476).
   
   
3. The volume specified is SMS-ineligible for the high-level qualifier (for example, VIEW.DB1).
   
   
4. The volume specified does not have enough contiguous space, for the extent (in the above message, extent 036), for the number of cylinders specified.

Resolution

If the SARDBASE /ADDDS rerun job still receives the 970C error:

• Run SARDBASE /STATUS FULL.
  
  
• If the database extent incorrectly created (VIEW.DB1.SARDBASE.D00nnnnn) is in the MVS catalog but NOT in the STATUS listing, do the following:
  
  
  • Use ISPF =3.4, to delete only the extent in question from the catalog.
    
    
  • Re-run SARDBASE /ADDDS to recreate the extent.
