Issue/Introduction
I aborted a Block Size Alter (BA24) running on a Datacom area. They I tried to restart the BA24 on the same area via DDUTILTY but the job failed with: **** ERROR **** DB RETURN CODE = 94 (177) BLOCK ALTER 24X7
Environment
Release: DBCISF00200-15.1-Datacom-Database-Option for CICS Services Component:
Cause
On the MUF joblog I see: DB02831E - BLOCK ALTER 24X7 nnn aaa ERROR COMPLETE, OPEN
The error is that you are doing a BA24 after a previous BA24 for the same area without the base being closed and reopened.
Resolution
Close and reopen the involved area to restart the Block Size Alter process
