Additional Information

ICSCBTIN13 $RBS RC=2 indicates a problem accessing a VLS file.

The 'RBS' stands for 'read block sequential' and RC 02 says that a file doesn't exist or isn't open.

A SCBTIN  message with RC 02 indicates that the READ BLOCK from SEQUENTIAL macro failed to read the Command Stream. This is an indication that the batch file table @IIDSYSF must be reassembled.
