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 DATA SET ABC.OPSMVS.BBB.ARCHIVE NOT ALLOCATED+ @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
Insufficient space to create the dataset on the disk volume.
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.
