CTM5A1E OPEN OF CONTROL-M STATISTICS FILE FAILED. RC=VSAM_return_code ERROR=VSAM_reason_code

Explanation: Error when trying to open the Control-M Statistics File for updating the Jobs Counting data. If the Control-M Statistics File was already successfully opened previously, then the error is considered as recoverable and Control-M tries to later update the Jobs Counting data. However, if it was the first attempt to open the Control-M Statistics File, then the error is considered as unrecoverable and Jobs Counting Facility is terminated (message CTM5A3E issued).

Corrective Action: If the message is issued frequently or the message CTM5A3E is also issued (Jobs Counting Facility is terminated) then contact IOA Technical support.

CTM5A2E ERROR IN operation JOB ACCOUNTING RECORD. RC=VSAM_return_code ERROR=VSAM_reason_code

Explanation: Error when trying to process the Jobs Counting Record (in the Control-M Statistics File) for accessing/updating the Jobs Counting data. The Jobs Counting Facility is terminated, the message CTM5A3E is issued.

Corrective Action: Contact IOA Technical support.

CTM5A3E JOB ACCOUNTING FACILITY TERMINATED

Explanation: The Jobs Counting Facility is terminated as the result of an error in accessing the Control-M Statistics File or the Jobs Counting Record in that file. It is preceded by the CTM5A1E or CTM5A2E message.

Corrective Action: Contact IOA Technical support.

CTM5A4W JOB ACCOUNTING RECORD NOT FOUND

Explanation: The message is issued by the Jobs Counting Report Utility when it detects that the Jobs Counting Record (which would contain the Jobs Counting Data) does not exist in the Control-M Statistics File. Usually it means that the Jobs Counting Facility was not activated or it was terminated and the corresponding error messages (CTM5A1E / CTM5A2E / CTM5A3E) will be issued by Control-M Monitor.

Corrective Action: Check the job log of Control-M Monitor and contact IOA Technical support.

CTM5A5W JOB ACCOUNTING RECORD IS EMPTY

Explanation: The message is issued by the Jobs Counting Report Utility when it detects that the Jobs Counting Record (which would contain the Jobs Counting Data) is empty. Usually it means that the Jobs Counting Facility was not activated or it was terminated and the corresponding error messages (CTM5A1E / CTM5A2E / CTM5A3E) will be issued by Control-M Monitor.

Corrective Action: Check the job log of Control-M Monitor and contact IOA Technical support.

CTM5B1I RECOVERY PROCEDURE INVOKED TO PREVENT DUPLICATE JOB PROCESSING

Explanation: During the start of Control-M monitor, it was detected that the previous monitor execution terminated abnormally and there are jobs whose processing might cause duplicate submissions or DO FORCEJOB execution. The Recovery Mode processing is invoked. It will scan the IOA LOG, extract information regarding the jobs whose statuses are ambiguous and set their statuses appropriately. In a CTMPLEX environment, this message can be issued not only during the start of Control-M monitor, but it can also be issued by the Global monitor if it detects a Coupling Facility failure or the abnormal termination of any Local monitor. The message can be also issued by a Local monitor when it switches to Global as a result of an abnormal termination of the previous Global.

For a general description about the Control-M Recovery Facility, see the Recovery Tools sub-section in Chapter 3, Control-M, in the INCONTROL for z/OS Administrator Guide. For more information about the installation parameters, RECENA and RECLEVEL, which control the Recovery Mode processing, see Chapter 2, Customizing Control-M, in the INCONTROL for z/OS Installation Guide: Customizing.

Corrective Action: Check the following messages issued by the Recovery Mode processing. Some messages indicate customer analysis and manual intervention might be required.

CTM5B2I JOB member_name / Order_ID PUT IN SUBMITTED STATUS BY RECOVERY PROCEDURE

Explanation: The Control-M Recovery processing analyzed the job in WAIT SUBMISSION status to prevent duplicate job submission. As a result of the analysis of the IOA LOG, the procedure detected that the job has already been submitted (before the Control-M abnormal termination) and extracted its JOBNAME and JOBID from the IOA LOG. The job is automatically put into SUBMITTED status so that Control-M can continue tracking and performing the regular Post Processing when the job finishes.

For a general description about the Control-M Recovery Facility, see the Recovery Tools sub-section in Chapter 3, Control-M, in the INCONTROL for z/OS Administrator Guide. For more information about the installation parameters, RECENA and RECLEVEL, which control the Recovery Mode processing, see Chapter 2, Customizing Control-M, in the INCONTROL for z/OS Installation Guide: Customizing.

Corrective Action: No user action required.

CTM5B3W JOB member_name / Order_ID PUT IN HOLD BY RECOVERY PROCEDURE TO PREVENT DUPLICATE action

Explanation: Control-M Recovery processing placed the job into HOLD status because it detected the possibility of duplicate submission or DO FORCEJOB execution and the analysis of the IOA LOG did not determine the job status at the moment of the Control-M abnormal termination. 'action' can either be 'SUBMISSION' or 'FORCEJOB'.

For a general description about the Control-M Recovery Facility, see the Recovery Tools sub-section in Chapter 3, Control-M, in the INCONTROL for z/OS Administrator Guide. For more information about the installation parameters, RECENA and RECLEVEL, which control the Recovery Mode processing, see Chapter 2, Customizing Control-M, in the INCONTROL for z/OS Installation Guide: Customizing.

Corrective Action: Check the actual status of the indicated job. If the job was not submitted or no DO FORCEJOB executed before the Control-M abnormal termination, then FREE the job so that Control-M can submit the job or execute its DO FORCEJOB.

If the job was already submitted or at least some of its DO FORCEJOB were already executed before the Control-M abnormal termination, more detailed analysis and manual actions are required. Check the results of the job execution (for the job put into HOLD to prevent duplicate submission) or check the DO FORCEJOB executed (for the job put into HOLD to prevent duplicate DO FORCEJOB). The customer might then have to manually make up the Post Processing actions according to the jobs execution results (for example, adding OUT CONDITIONS). In some situations the Force OK request might be applicable here.

CTM5B4W number JOBS PUT IN HOLD STATUS BY RECOVERY PROCEDURE TO PREVENT DUPLICATE ACTIONS

Explanation: Control-M Recovery processing placed number jobs into HOLD status because it detected the possibility of their duplicate submission or DO FORCEJOB execution and the analysis of the IOA LOG did not determine the job statuses at the moment of the Control-M abnormal termination. The CTM5B3W messages, which were issued before CTM5B4W, indicate the jobs put into HOLD statuses.

For a general description about the Control-M Recovery Facility, see the Recovery Tools sub-section in Chapter 3, Control-M, in the INCONTROL for z/OS Administrator Guide. For more information about the installation parameters, RECENA and RECLEVEL, which control the Recovery Mode processing, see Chapter 2, Customizing Control-M, in the INCONTROL for z/OS Installation Guide: Customizing.

Corrective Action: Analyze the previous CTM5B3W messages and handle the jobs listed by these messages as explained in the User Action part for CTM5B3W.

CTM5B6E ERROR IN LOG FILE DURING RECOVERY PROCEDURE

Explanation: During the Control-M recovery procedure, Control-M recovery could not open the IOA log file and extract the needed information.

Corrective Action: Check the IOA Log file and fix the issue.

CTM5C5I JOB job_member_name IS RECYCLED WITH CYCLIC SMART TABLE Table_Name RECYCLE

Explanation: The job belongs to a Cyclic SMART Table. When the Cyclic SMART Table is recycled for possible re-execution, all of its jobs (excluding ones in HELD or DELETED statuses) are recycled.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTM5C6I PERFORMING CONDITION ADJUSTMENT TO ALLOW CYCLIC SMART TABLE Table_Name RECYCLE

Explanation: The recycling processing of Cyclic SMART Tables includes the Internal Smart Table Conditions cleanup, which guarantees the correct order of execution of the SMART Table jobs. This message is followed by the SEL250I message, which contains the name of the Conditions deleted.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTM5C7I TABLE IS MARKED TO BE COMPLETED BY JOB jobName (orderId)

Explanation: This message is issued to the Smart Table’s log, indicating that it was completed by the job’s ‘End Table’ Post Processing parameter.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTM5C8I END-TABLE PERFORMED. TABLE tableName (orderId) IS MARKED TO BE COMPLETED

Explanation: This message is issued to the log of the job that marked the specified Smart Table as ‘To be Completed’ as a result of processing the job’s ‘End Table’ parameter.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTM5CAI TABLE TableName (OrderId) IS MARKED TO BE COMPLETED BY AJF COMPRESS

Explanation: Control-M New Day processing or AJF Compress forced Smart Table completion because the MAXWAIT of all its jobs (and the Smart Table itself) had expired. For additional information, see the description of Control-M Installation parameter FRMAXWT in the INCONTROL for z/OS Installation Guide: Customizing.

Corrective Action: No action is required.
