SEL204E taskType memName jobName/jobId OID=orderId OUTPUT CONDITION condNameDate NOT ADDED/ DELETED - SECURITY VIOLATION

Explanation: User is not authorized to add/delete the condition condNameDate to/from the conditions file. The date is in mmdd format.

The job definition contains OUT statements or ON STEP/DO COND statements (or both) for the referenced condition. The condition was not added/deleted because the user ID of the job order is not authorized to add or delete the condition.

Output condition is not added/ deleted, but processing continues.

Corrective Action: Consult your INCONTROL administrator.

SEL205I OID=orderId RERUN IN PROCESS USING MEMBER memName

Explanation: This information message indicates that a DO RERUN instruction has been activated.

An event which requires a rerun has been triggered. Control-M will place the job again in wait schedule state. If all the runtime conditions are met the job will be submitted immediately.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

SEL208I taskType memName jobName/jobId OID=orderId ENDED "OK" RUN-NO=<run number>

Explanation: This information message indicates that a job finished executing OK. The Control-M run number is incremented each time a cyclic task is executed or a job is rerun.

The job ended successfully in one of the following ways:

• The job ended with a condition code from 00 through 04, which is the Control-M default for ended OK.
• Other events were marked OK in the production parameters and no event was unexplained or marked NOTOK.
• If text is FORCED OK, the job was terminated upon request and therefore marked as ended OK.
• If text is CLEANUP, the run was a Control-M/Restart Cleanup run.
• If text is (DUMMY JOB), the job that was run was a Control-M dummy job.

For more information, see the Control-M for z/OS User Guide.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

SEL209E taskType memName jobName/jobId OID=orderId SYSOUT DISAPPEARED

Explanation: The job sysout disappeared. The Control-M monitor could not check the sysout to analyze job execution results.

Possible causes are:

• Someone purged the output of the job before the Control-M monitor was able to read it.
• Someone released the job from Held status and the job was printed before the Control-M monitor was able to read it.
• In the case of a started task, if the JES parameters signify that the STCMCLAS is not to be printed, then sysouts of STCs will always disappear.

The job finishes executing NOTOK, and the code JLOST is used to describe the event.

Corrective Action: Check the exact reason for the disappearance of the job and try to prevent it from happening again. See a description of sending a job to a held output class in the INCONTROL for z/OS Installation Guide, and sending a job SYSDATA to a held output class in the INCONTROL for z/OS Administrator Guide for additional considerations regarding the Control-M held class.

The job ended unsuccessfully in one of the following ways:

• The job ended with a condition code greater than 04 which is the Control-M default for ended NOTOK.
• Other events were marked NOTOK in the production parameters or some event was unexplained and marked NOTOK.
• If text is FORCED OK, the job was terminated upon request and therefore marked as ended OK.
• If text is CLEANUP, the run was a Control-M/Restart Cleanup run.

See the Control-M for z/OS User Guide for more information.

Corrective Action: No action is required.

SEL220I taskType memName jobName/jobId OID=orderId WILL BE RERUN

SEL241W taskType memName jobName /jobId OID=orderId OUTPUT CONDITION condNameDate NOT UPDATED - NO MORE SPACE. NOTIFY THE IOA ADMINISTRATOR

Explanation: Highlighted, unrollable message.

No more space to add output conditions to the conditions file. The date is in mmdd format.

The record for the specified day of the month is full. For example, if a condition with date reference of January 3 cannot be added, then an entry in the conditions file that contains conditions for the third day of every month is full.

The condition is not added, and a highlighted message is displayed on the operator console. Control-M continues to function, but the jobs that depend on the condition are not submitted.

Corrective Action: Immediate actions:

1. Enter the Control-M Online Facility Resource Map (screen 4). By changing the date range limit, find conditions with the same day (but a different month) as the condition that could not be added, and manually delete those that are not needed.
2. Add the failing condition manually, to maintain production flow.
3. Report the event to your system programmer.

Long term actions:

1. Run the IOACLCND Control-M utility more often.
2. Increase the record length of the IOA Conditions file. For more information on how to do this, see the description of expanding IOA files in the INCONTROL for z/OS Administrator Guide.

SEL244S OPEN OF DD NAME "DAALTRES" AND/OR "DAALTSNC" FAILED. DUAL RESOURCE FILE IS NOT AVAILABLE.

Explanation: Open of IOA alternate (dual) Conditions file (the DAALTCND DD statement) failed.
