Problem 3 – Volume Chain Error

CTT983E RBA 000200: VOL: HIS001 CHAIN ERROR: INVALID PREV/NEXT POINTERS

CTT999I V HIS001 SEQ:001 FIRST:HIS001             NEXT:HIS002

CTT983E RBA 000201: VOL: HIS002 CHAIN ERROR: INVALID PREV/NEXT POINTERS

CTT999I V HIS002 SEQ:002 FIRST:HIS001

An error was detected in a multi-volume chain. The values for the PREVVOL and/or NEXTVOL fields are missing or invalid. Determine which of the pointers are wrong or missing. The volume records need to be updated with the correct PREVVOL and NEXTVOL information. The index pointers for this multi-volume chain only need to be rebuilt if the data set is not listed for each volume in the chain.

In this example, the Inquire/Update screen (TI), indicates that the volumes are part of a multi-volume chain for data set, DSN.HIS01, but the Additional Information screen (A) for volume HIS002 indicates that the Prev Volume pointer is missing.
