This group includes messages for the Control-M for z/OS, Control-M/Assist, Control-M/Links for z/OS, and Control-M/Restart products.

CTR100I ABEND CODE code IS RECAPTURED FOR STEP procStep. pgmStep

Explanation: This information message indicates that the CONTROLR step recaptured an abend code from a previous run of the job. This code may affect execution of the restarted job. The steps of the restarted job can refer to (COND=EVEN or COND=ONLY) abends in steps that are not executed in the restart run.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTR101I NONCAT2 FROM STEP procStep. pgmStep TO STEP procStep. pgmStep

Explanation: This information message indicates the range of steps which will be executed in a Prevent NCT2 run.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTR102I CLEANUP FROM STEP step.procStep TO STEP step.procStep

Explanation: This information message indicates that the Control-M/Restart Data Set Cleanup Facility (CLIST CTRCCLN) was used to perform data set adjustment, without performing the actual restart. Data Set Cleanup Facility is used to restore the steps in the specified step range to their initial state. The CONTROLR step performs data set adjustment, deleting all new cataloged files, adjusting GDG bias numbers, and so on, without executing other steps of the job.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTR103I job [procedure] step - STEP NOT EXECUTED - DUE TO RESTART DECISION

Explanation: This information message indicates the step that is being skipped during the restarted run of a job. The job step was not executed because restart was requested by a From Restart Step statement from a later step.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTR104S ALL STEPS WILL BE FLUSHED DUE TO PREVIOUS CODES

Explanation: Restart resulted in flushing all remaining steps in the job. A request was made to Control-M/Restart to recapture step completion codes. This request will cause all remaining steps not to be executed, because of condition codes specification.

All the job steps are not executed.

Corrective Action: If recapturing of completion codes is required, mark the job as ended OK using the FORCE OK command, or restart the job without the step recapturing option.

CTR105I 'NCT2' IS RECAPTURED FOR STEP stepName.procStep

Explanation: This message informs the user that Control-M/Restart recaptured the NCT2 codes for a specific step and specific procstep. Control-M will use this information during post-processing analysis of the results of the job.

Corrective Action: No action is necessary.

CTR106I jobName processName stepName - complCode systemAbCode/userAbCode nct2_sign

Explanation: This message appears for every step in the job. It is used by Control-M during the Post-processing analysis of the results of the job.

Corrective Action: No action is necessary.

CTR107I ABEND CODE code IS RESET FOR STEP procStep. pgmStep

Explanation: This information message indicates that Control-M/Restart reset the abend code for the specified step and reset the step to a "not abended" state with a zero condition code.

This code might affect execution of the restarted job.

Corrective Action: No action is necessary.

CTR120E READING OF THE SYSOUT OF PREVIOUS RUN(S) OF ORDERID orderId FAILED

Explanation: Severe errors were encountered during processing of the sysouts from the previous run or runs of the job. The preceding messages explain the problem in detail.

Depending on the Read Sysout Indicator, Control-M/Restart either terminates or continues processing.

If R was specified as a value for READ SYSOUT INDICATOR then the CONTROLR step terminates with a nonzero condition code or with an abend code, depending on the setting of the ABENDTYP Control-M/Restart installation parameter in CTRPARM. The job terminates after the CONTROLR step.

If C was specified as a value for Read Sysout Indicator then Control-M/Restart continues processing.

Corrective Action: Check the combination of CONTROLR step parameters MEMNAME and ORDERID. If the combination is valid, try to find out why the compressed data sets containing the sysouts of the previous run for the job were deleted.

CTR121E IMPORTANT SYSOUT OF JOBID jobId FROM ORDERID orderId IS MISSING. RESTART IMPOSSIBLE

Explanation: Control-M/Restart did not find some or all of the archived SYSDATA for the orderId order ID during the restart run CONTROLR step. The SYSDATA pointers that Control-M/Restart received pointed to archived SYSDATA that was deleted before the restart run was executed. Control-M/Restart cannot perform a restart without this data.

The CONTROLR step terminates with a non-zero condition code or with an abend code, depending on the setting of the ABENDTYP Control-M/Restart installation parameter. The job terminates after the CONTROLR step.

Corrective Action: Determine the cause of deletion of the needed SYSDATA, and ensure that all SYSDATA needed by Control-M/Restart for restart are available at the time the restart is performed.

CTR126W PROBLEMS READING ARCHIVED SYSOUT DATA BASE. DSN=dsn

Explanation: Control-M/Restart encountered problems while attempting to read archived SYSDATA from the archived SYSDATA database. This message is accompanied by other messages that define the exact problem.

The CONTROLR step terminates with a non-zero condition code or with an abend code, depending on the Control-M/Restart installation parameter ABNDTYP. The job terminates after the CONTROLR step.

Corrective Action: Notify BMC Customer Support.

CTR128S SYSOUT(S) OF THE PREVIOUS RUN(S) DO NOT CONTAIN USEFUL INFORMATION. NUMBER OF CARDS READ nnnn

Explanation: SYSDATA read by Control-M/Restart did not contain the data necessary to complete processing properly.

The CONTROLR step terminates with a non-zero condition code or with an abend code, depending on the Control-M/Restart installation parameter ABNDTYP. The job terminates after the CONTROLR step.

Corrective Action: Notify BMC Customer Support.

CTR131E INCORRECT DSN SPECIFICATION - dsn

Explanation: The dsn data set specified in the RESTART or PREVENT NCT2 Control-STATEMENT has an invalid syntax.

The CONTROLR step terminates with a non-zero condition code or with an abend code, depending on the Control-M/Restart installation parameter ABNDTYP in CTRPARM. The job terminates after the CONTROLR step. The statement in error is printed before this message.

Corrective Action: Correct the RESTART or PREVENT NCT2 Control-statement. Refer to the Control-M/Restart User Guide for the description of the RESTART or PREVENT NCT2 Control-statement.

CTR132I PARAMETER MISSING IN THE DEBUG LEVEL STATEMENT

Explanation: This information message indicates that parameter DEBUGLEVEL was specified in the CTRPARM member, but no value was supplied.

The program ignores the parameter and continues processing.

Corrective Action: Enter the value from 1 to 255 for the DEBUGLEVEL parameter in the CTRPARM member.

CTR133I INVALID DEBUG LEVEL VALUE

Explanation: This information message indicates that an invalid value was specified in the DEBUGLEVEL parameter in the CTRPARM member.

The program ignores the parameter and continues processing.

Corrective Action: Correct the value specified in the DEBUGLEVEL parameter in the CTRPARM member to a number from 1 to 255.

CTR134E INVALID SPECIFICATION OF NONRESTARTABLE STEP [procStep.pgmStep]

Explanation: The NONRESTARTABLE_STEP parameter in the olprefa.CTR library was specified incorrectly.

The program aborts the CONTROLR step with an error code.

Corrective Action: Correct the format of the NONRESTARTABLE_STEP parameter to [PROCSTEP. PGMSTEP] and restart the job.

CTR135E INVALID SPECIFICATION OF NONRESTARTABLE PGM programName

Explanation: The NONRESTARTABLE_PGM parameter in the olprefa.CTR library was specified incorrectly.

The program aborts the CONTROLR step with an error code.

Corrective Action: Correct the format of the NONRESTARTABLE_PGM parameter to PGM and restart the job.

CTR141S MVS/JES TABLE tableName CANNOT BE LOCATED

Explanation: Control-M/Restart cannot locate the specified operating system table for retrieving necessary information.

The CONTROLR step terminates with a non-zero condition code or with an abend code, depending on the Control-M/Restart installation parameter ABNDTYP in CTRPARM. The job terminates after the CONTROLR step.

Corrective Action: Contact BMC Customer Support for assistance.

CTR142S TOKEN TRANSLATION FOR TABLE tableName FAILED. TOKEN= token. RC= rc

Explanation: Failure in request by Control-M/Restart for MVS SWA Manager translation service. Values of table, token, and return-code are provided for problem determination purposes.

The CONTROLR step terminates with a non-zero condition code or with an abend code, depending on the Control-M/Restart installation parameter ABNDTYP. The job terminates after the CONTROLR step.

Corrective Action: Notify BMC Customer Support.

CTR143S UNIT NAME NOT FOUND: unitName

Explanation: Unit name unitname was not recognized by Control-M/Restart. The unit name is either incorrect or missing from the Control-M/Restart Unit Table.

The job terminates with error.

Corrective Action: Specify a correct unit name in the Control-M/Restart Unit Table.

CTR146S "MOD" DISPOSITION IS REQUESTED, BUT THE SPACE PARAMETER IS NOT SPECIFIED IN THE JCL

Explanation: The data set that was specified with a MOD disposition could not be found, and therefore a new one must be allocated. However, the space parameter is missing.

For non-SMS environments, the CONTROLR step terminates with a non-zero condition code or with an abend code, depending on the Control-M/Restart installation parameter ABNDTYP in CTRPARM. The job terminates after the CONTROLR step. Under SMS the message is not produced.

Corrective Action: Add the SPACE parameter to the data set with the MOD disposition, and rerun the job.

CTR147I REFERENCE TO GDG DATASET WILL BE ADJUSTED TO dsn1 FROM: dsn2

Explanation: This information message indicates that the GDG adjustment phase will change the data set name because the generation number was updated by the job during a previous run. Usually the change will be to return to the previous generation data set.

The data set name will be changed. The JCL of the job remains unchanged. Only the real job references the new data set name during execution.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTR148E DATASET NOT FOUND IN CATALOG. STEP ADJUSTMENT IS ATTEMPTED

Explanation: A step that should run in the restarted job contains a data set that is not found in the catalog.

Control-M/Restart tries to do a step adjustment, find a previous step that creates the required data set, and restart from that step.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTR149W "NEW" DISPOSITION IS REQUESTED FOR A DATASET USED BY A PREVIOUS JOB STEP

Explanation: A job step must allocate a data set as if DISP was set to NEW, but Control-M/Restart determined that a previous step in the job references the same data set name with a disposition other than DELETE.

Processing continues normally.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTR150I exitName USER EXIT WILL BE INVOKED TO func DATASET

Explanation: This information message indicates that the CTRX001 Control-M/Restart Exit will replace Control-M/Restart data set adjustment processing. This exit is installed during Control-M/Restart Installation. It overrides CATALOG, UNCATALOG, DELETE (SCRATCH), LOCATE and SCANDS functions originally performed by Control-M/Restart.

For more information concerning Control-M/Restart user exits, see the INCONTROL for z/OS Administrator Guide.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTR151W ERRORS OCCURRED WHILE COLLECTING JOBS/DATASETS CROSS-REFERENCE STATISTICS

Explanation: Errors occurred during Control-M/Restart PREVENT NCT2 processing while statistics were being collected for the Job Dataset Cross Reference report.

Control-M/Restart continues PREVENT NCT2 processing, and Control-M continues processing of the job, but the Job Dataset Cross Reference report statistics relating to this job are not collected.

Corrective Action: Retain the whole sysout of the problematic job execution, and contact BMC Customer Support.

CTR152I JOBS/DATASETS CROSS-REFERENCE STATISTICS COLLECTED SUCCESSFULLY

Explanation: During Control-M/Restart PREVENT NCT2 processing, statistics for the Job Dataset Cross Reference report were collected successfully.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTR160E INVALID "EXEC" CARD FOUND - stmt

Explanation: An unknown type of EXEC statement was found during sysout processing.

The CONTROLR step terminates with a non-zero condition code or with an abend code, depending on the Control-M/Restart installation parameter ABNDTYP in CTRPARM. The job terminates after the CONTROLR step.

Corrective Action: Check the problematic EXEC statement and if appropriate, correct it. If everything appears in order, contact BMC Customer Support.

CTR161S "SUBSTITUTION JCL" CARD NOT FOUND FOR JCL LINE " lineNum"

Explanation: Substituting JCL message (IEF653I) had been expected for the JCL line number line-number but it was not found in the sysout. This is probably an internal error in Control-M/Restart. Control-M/Restart tries to analyze the JCL of the previous executions of the job. This message means that Control-M/Restart could not resolve some internal references of the sysout of the job.

The CONTROLR step ends with a non-zero condition code or with an abend code, depending on the Control-M/Restart Installation parameter ABNDTYP in CTRPARM. The job ends after the CONTROLR step.

Corrective Action: Check the problematic sysout, and correct the JCL of the job. If everything appears in order, contact BMC Customer Support for assistance. Provide a printout of the sysout of the previous execution of the job that failed, and the complete sysout of the job run that produced this message.

CTR162S UNKNOWN SYSOUT STRUCTURE OF JOBID jobId

Explanation: Severe failure during sysout processing. Control-M/Restart is unable to process the sysout from the previous run of the job (JOBID jobId). Control-M/Restart encountered a job SYSJCL or SYSMSG structure with which it is not familiar. It is probably an internal error of Control-M/Restart.

The CONTROLR step terminates with a non-zero condition code or with an abend code, depending on the Control-M/Restart Installation parameter ABNDTYP in CTRPARM. The job terminates after the CONTROLR step.

Corrective Action: Contact BMC Customer Support for assistance. Provide a printout of the sysout of the previous execution of the job that failed, and the complete sysout of the job run that produced this message.

CTR163I MISPLACED "JCL" STATEMENT - jclStmt

Explanation: This information message indicates that a JCL statement was found in the message area of the job sysout from the previous run.

CONTROLR step continues processing. This JCL statement is ignored.

Corrective Action: Check why the specified JCL statement was found in the improper area of the sysout. If everything appears in order, contact BMC Customer Support.

CTR164I MISPLACED SYSOUT STATEMENT - sysout stmt

Explanation: This information message indicates that the specified sysout statement was found in an improper area of the job sysout from the previous run.

CONTROLR step continues processing, and the sysout statement is ignored.

Corrective Action: Check why the specified sysout statement was found in the improper area of the sysout of the previous run of the job. If everything appears in order, contact BMC Customer Support for assistance.

CTR165E ERRORS WHILE PROCESSING SYSOUT. SENSE= sense

Explanation: Control-M/Restart encountered an error in the structure of a SYSDATA statement from a previous run. The SYSDATA contained data that was in an invalid format. The value of sense is an internal code that helps in problem analysis. This message is accompanied by message CTR167I, which contains the content of the statement in error.

Control-M/Restart continues the restart process.

Corrective Action: Notify BMC Customer Support.

CTR166I CURRENT JOB JCL IS DIFFERENT FROM JCL OF PREVIOUS RUN(S)

Explanation: This information message indicates that differences were found between current job JCL and the JCL or JCLs of the job from previous run or runs of the job.

CONTROLR step continues processing.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTR167I UNKNOWN CARD STRUCTURE - sysoutData

Explanation: This information message contains the data that caused the error indicated in the preceding CTR165S message.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTR168I ANALYZE {STAGE2 | CHKSTG2} INFORMATION FOR STEP=STEP= stepName PROCSTEP= procStepName

Explanation: This information message provides additional information for messages CTR164I and/or CTR038I.

The program continues normal error processing.

Corrective Action: Supply BMC Customer Support with the sysout of the original run of the job, and the sysout and Control-M/Restart output of all restarted attempts of the job.

CTR169I {JESJCL | SYSMSG} ddName dsn gdgLevel

Explanation: This information message provides additional information for messages CTR164I and CTR038I.

The program continues normal error processing.

Corrective Action: Supply BMC Customer Support with the sysout of the original run of the job, and the sysout and Control-M/Restart output of all restarted attempts of the job.

CTR171S processName FROM CONTROL-M/RESTART STEP IS NOT SUPPORTED

Explanation: Control-M/Restart was requested to perform process starting with the CONTROLR step itself. A RESTART or NONCAT2 run must start processing at some step other than the CONTROLR step itself. The request to begin at the CONTROLR step may have been generated manually, either in the Control-M Restart Window or by manual creation of the JCL, or automatically as the result of a prior run abending in the CONTROLR step.

The CONTROLR step terminates with a non-zero condition code or with an abend code (depending on the Control-M/Restart installation parameter ABNDTYP). The job terminates after the CONTROLR step.

Corrective Action: If the FROM step was manually specified on the Control-M Restart Window, specify a subsequent step in the job as the starting step. If the JCL for the RESTART or NONCAT2 run was created manually, correct the JCL to point to a subsequent step.

If the FROM step was generated automatically, the restart step must be overridden manually in the Control-M Restart Window to point to a later step in the RESTART or NONCAT2 run.

CTR180E DSN dsn IS LOCATED ON MORE THAN ONE VOLUME - CANNOT RESTART

Explanation: During restart of a job that was executing when the system crashed, Control-M/Restart found data set dsn on more than one disk volume. After a system crash, Control-M/Restart must determine where new data sets that did not specify a specific volume were allocated. The system crashed before the data sets were cataloged. At restart, Control-M/Restart found more than one data set with the same name.

This message precedes a series of CTR181E messages that list the volumes on which data set dsn was found.

The CONTROLR step terminates with a non-zero condition code or with an abend code, depending on the Control-M/Restart installation parameter ABNDTYP. The job terminates after the CONTROLR step.

Corrective Action: If it can be determined from the CTR181E messages which data set was the one created when the system crashed, delete all others with the same data set name and retry the restart.

If it is not possible to determine which data set is the correct one for restart, delete all data sets with data set name dsn, and when restarting, manually ensure that the restart step occurs before the step that created dsn.

An alternative is to modify the JCL for the job so that a specific volume is requested for data set dsn. This permits restart to proceed. In this case, delete dsn from all other volumes on which it appears.

CTR181E DSN dsn IS LOCATED ON VOLUME vol

Explanation: This message accompanies message CTR180E and indicates on which volumes the duplicate data sets reside.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTR182I STEP ADJUSTMENT REQUIRED BUT "NOSTEPADJUST" WAS SPECIFIED. RESTART PROCESSING TERMINATED

Explanation: This information message indicates that restart processing terminated because a required step adjustment could not be performed due to a NOSTEPADJUST specification. Control-M/Restart determined that step adjustment was required to perform the restart correctly. However, control statement NOSTEPADJUST, which prevents automatic step adjustment, was specified.

Restart processing is terminated and the job is not executed.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTR183I STEP step PROCSTEP procStep NON RESTARTABLE BY REQUEST (reason). STEP ADJUSTMENT ATTEMPTED

Explanation: This information message indicates that the step is non-restartable, as requested by the user. Therefore, Control-M/Restart attempts step adjustment, that is, to restart the job from the previous step.

If a reason appears for why the step is non-restartable, it can be one of the following:

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTR184S JOB IS NON RESTARTABLE BY REQUEST

Explanation: Job could not be restarted because Control-M/Restart attempted to perform the restart from the first step, but the user specified the CTRNORST DD statement within that step or there is a NONRESTARTABLE statement that prevents the step from running.

If Control-M/Restart attempts restart from a step that is non-restartable, Control-M/Restart then attempts restart from the previous step.

Control-M/Restart attempts step adjustment.

When Control-M/Restart attempts restart from the first step, but the CTRNORST DD statement is specified for that step or there is a NONRESTARTABLE statement that prevents the step from running, there is no previous step from which the restart can be attempted, so the restart fails.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTR185E ERROR IN PROCESSING OF "IF/THEN/ELSE" JCL CARD FOR STEP stepName PROCSTEP procStepName

Explanation: An internal error occurred during Control-M/Restart analysis of the ‘IF/THEN/ELSE’ job JCL statements.

The CONTROLR step terminates with a nonzero condition code or with an abend code, depending on the Control-M/Restart installation parameter ABNDTYP in CTRPARM. The job terminates after the CONTROLR step.

Corrective Action: Report the problem to BMC Customer Support.

CTR186E ERROR ACCESSING CTR PARM LIBRARY

Explanation: Control-M/Restart encountered an error while trying to read the $DEFAULT parameter file member or the Restart Parm Member Name (by default, the Job MEMNAME).

The CONTROLR step terminates with a nonzero condition code or with an abend code, depending on the Control-M/Restart installation parameter ABNDTYP in CTRPARM. The job terminates after the CONTROLR step.

Corrective Action: Try to verify the members. If no issue is found, report the problem to BMC Customer Support.
