CTT620E UNABLE TO UNCATALOG DATASETS

Explanation: In response to a request for option E (immediate expiration) for a volume, all data sets on the volume were deleted, but the Online Facility cannot uncatalog the data sets from the MVS Catalog. The probable cause of the problem is that the MVS Catalog is not available.

Corrective Action: Call your system programmer for assistance.

CTT621E SILO REQUEST FAILED

Explanation: In response to a request for option E (immediate expiration) for a volume, the volume was scratched in the Media Database and the corresponding SCRATCH request was sent to a Silo Interface. However, the Silo request failed. Error message CTT334E, containing return and reason codes, in the MVS SYSLOG accompanies this message.

Corrective Action: Check the MVS SYSLOG for the return and reason codes in message CTT334E. Proceed accordingly.

CTT623E SLOT slot WAS NOT RELEASED. RC=rc, VAULT=vault, MEDIA=media

Explanation: A volume expiration request was issued for a vaulted volume. Control-M/Tape cannot release the slot that was assigned to the volume.

Possible values for rc (causes for the failure) are:

• 04 -- Slot Definition Records not in Media Database (MDB) for specified vault.
• 08 -- Internal program error.
• 12 -- Not enough memory.
• 16 -- I/O error.
• 20 -- The specified media was not defined for the specified vault.
• 32 -- The CTTVTM utility is currently running, and updating the Slot Definition Records.

The currently executing function continues. The requested volume becomes scratch in the MDB.

Corrective Action: For a return code of 12 or 16, do one of the following:

• If rc is 12, increase the region size for the executing job’s online procedure.
• If rc is 16, notify your INCONTROL administrator.

In all other cases, check the vault definition using the Vault Definition screen (screen TV), and then run the CTTVTM utility in mode SLOTBLD to synchronize the Slot Definition records with the Volume records.

CTT624E BOX CANNOT BE VAULTED MANUALLY

Explanation: Option VAULT was requested in the Inquiry/Update Media DB screen (screen TI) for a volume that is located in a box. This is not permitted since the volume was not previously recalled from a vault. Option VAULT is valid for a volume from a box only if the box was previously recalled from a vault to the MAINLIB.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTT625E INVALID DATASET GENERATION QUERY

Explanation: An invalid format was used for data set generation in the DSNAME field in Screen TI, the Control-M/Tape Inquire/Update entry panel. To request data set generation, specify zero or a negative number in parentheses appended to the data set name in the DSNAME field, for example, data set (-1).

No data is displayed until data set generation is specified correctly.

Corrective Action: Correctly specify the data set generation value. For more information, see the DSNAME field in the section that describes entry panel fields in the chapter on online facilities of the Control-M/Tape User Guide.

CTT626E INVALID SORT COMMAND SYNTAX. USE ‘SORT FIELD-NAME A/D’

Explanation: The syntax for the SORT command on the TI screen, the Control-M/Tape Inquire/Update screen, is invalid.

The valid syntax for the SORT command is SORT field [{A|D}] where:

• A means sort in ascending order
• D means sort in descending order

For more information about this command, see the section that describes the commands of the Inquire/Update screen in the chapter on online facilities of the Control-M/Tape User Guide.

The SORT command is ignored.

Corrective Action: Specify the command with valid syntax.

CTT627E SORT FIELD UNKNOWN, OR INVALID WITH {VOLUME | DATASET} RECORDS

Explanation: The SORT command contains an invalid sort field. Either the specified sort field is unknown or it is not in the current display. This command is used in the Inquire/Update screen (Screen TI).

If data set records are currently displayed, only data set fields can be used to sort displayed records. If volume records are currently displayed, only volume fields can be used to sort displayed records.

The SORT command is ignored.

Corrective Action: Specify a valid sort field. Valid field names are listed under the heading External names in tables in the appendix that describes logical field names for the Control-M/Tape repository in the INCONTROL for z/OS Administrator Guide, or the column headers on the TI screen.

CTT630E LOCATION NOT FOUND IN THE VAULT PATTERN

Explanation: During update of a vaulted volume record using the Volume Update screen, the value specified in the LOCATION field did not match any of the VAULT NAME fields.

Corrective Action: Synchronize LOCATION and VAULT NAME fields.

CTT631E DATE CANNOT BE LESS THAN PREVIOUS VAULT ENTRY DATE

Explanation: During an attempt to update a vaulted volume record using the Volume Update screen, one of the Entry Date fields was specified for a date earlier than the previous entry date.

Corrective Action: Correct the erroneous Entry Date field.

CTT632E INVALID TYPE retention. VALID RETENTION TYPES ARE CA,CY,DAT,EX,L,P,VA,VO,M

Explanation: An invalid UNTIL type specifies the retention period in a DO VAULT statement. The UNTIL type specifies the retention period for which a volser is kept in a vault, and how the period is calculated. A single UNTIL type, or a combination of up to three types, can be specified using the AND/OR field.

See the UNTIL subparameter of DO VAULT in the chapter on rule parameters of the Control-M/Tape User Guide for a description of valid UNTIL types.

Corrective Action: Correct the entry by specifying a valid retention type.

CTT633E INVALID TYPE retention. VALID RETENTION TYPES ARE CA,CY,DAT,ED,L,P,R,S,M

Explanation: An invalid RETENTION type was specified in a DO RETENTION statement. The DO RETENTION statement specifies a duration for which a data set is kept. The retention type specified identifies how the duration is calculated. A single retention type, or a combination of up to three different retention types may be specified using the AND/OR field.

For a description of valid RETENTION types, see the RETENTION subparameter of DO VAULT in the rule parameters chapter in the Control-M/Tape User Guide.

Corrective Action: Correct the entry by specifying a valid retention type.

CTT634W VAULT PATTERN HAS MORE THAN THREE ENTRIES

Explanation: The user was attempting to update a vaulted volume record using the Volume Update screen, but the volume record contains more than three vault entries in the vault pattern. It is impossible to update such a vault pattern.

All vaulting related fields, such as LOCATION and MOVE DATE, are displayed but cannot be edited.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTT635E INVALID DATE date

Explanation: An invalid date was specified in the Volume/Dataset Update screen. The date format is set according to installation parameters and may be either ddmmyy, mmddyy, or yymmdd.

Corrective Action: Correct the invalid value according to the field contents.

CTT63AE MAXIMUM VALUE IS 2047 TB

Explanation: A value greater than the maximum was specified in the capacity value fields in the Volume/Dataset Update screen.

Corrective Action: Correct the invalid value.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

CTT646I INVALID fileName. RESTART CANCELED

Explanation: The specified file is invalid. RESTART mode cannot continue. Restart is based on information in the specified file. Because the file is invalid, the utility cannot run in RESTART mode.

RESTART mode is canceled. The utility continues in NORMAL mode.

Corrective Action: No action is required.
