Issue/Introduction

Our OPS/MVS admin has created a new OPS/MVS Archive GDG. However, when F OPSS,RESTART(ARCH) is issued the following error occurs:

OPS0158S IKJ56879I DATA SET ABC.OPSMVS.BBB.ARCHIVE NOT ALLOCATED, REFERENCED DATA SET NAME IS A GDG GROUP NAME

Other messages:
IGD17272I VOLUME SELECTION HAS FAILED FOR INSUFFICIENT SPACE DATA SET

@OPS0158S IKJ56894I STORAGE MANAGEMENT SUBSYSTEM DETECTED AN ERROR, EITHER MESSAGES WERE NOT REQUESTED OR A SYSTEM ERROR OCCUR +OPS8300O RC=33, The archive OPSLOG data set could not be allocated +OPS8330I OPSLOG archive creation request processing completed
+OPS8320O OPSLOG (OPSLOG) archive creation completed, MAXRC=33


 

Cause

Insufficient space to create the dataset on the disk volume.

Resolution

For release 12.3 ensure: 
Apply fix RO96471 Title: OPSLOG ARCHIVE MAXIMUM SPACE REQUESTED


For all other releases:
Things to check when there is an allocation error:
  • Check the Archive parameters are correct by going to OPSVIEW 4.1.1
  • Check the OPS/MVS parameter member OPSSPA00 for the archive dataset high level qualifier being set and verify the name.
  • Check to see if the ARCHIVEMODEL parameter was updated with the correct(New) dataset name.The ARCHIVE HLQ(GDG BASE)and MODEL cannot be the same name. 
    (Note: The previous GDG BASE and ARCHIVEMODEL may be used from the previous release.
  • Review the complete JCL for setting up the data definitions. Check the proclib for ARCHPROC and the correct datasets for the STEPLIB and SYSEXEC.
  • Recycle OPS/MVS to pickup the changes in OPSSPAxx.
  • Restart of the ARCHIVE subtask. Stop and start OPSS then issue F OPSS,RESTART(ARCH) from the OPSLOG in OPSVIEW.
