Utility Messages and Codes

ADACHK was successful.

ADACHK was successful but encountered a warning condition.

With the ADACHK utility, a return code of 4 indicates that either the number of unreachable index blocks is greater than zero or any CHKnnnW (warning) message was received.

ADACHK encountered an error condition but then continued.

With the ADACHK utility, a return code of 8 indicates that a database inconsistency was encountered.

The function could not be completed.

The operation encountered an error condition but did not terminate abnormally because NOUSERABEND was specified.

One of the following occurred:

• At least one rejected record occurred during processing.

• The utility has processed only the base file of a LOB group (a base file and its associated LOB file) without the associated LOB file.

The utility detected inconsistencies between the files in a LOB group (a base file and its associated LOB file).

One of the following occurred:

• CHANGE, NEWFIELD, or RELEASE: The operation was performed on a component file of an expanded file. The other component files must be processed explicitly.

• MODFCB DATAPFAC: The Data Storage padding factor (DATAPFAC) setting is ignored for files containing spanned records. The following warning will also appear if DATAPFAC is specified for a file that has data storage spanning enabled:

    
  
   *****DATAPFAC is ignored for files with spanned data storage enabled****** 
  
  

• MODFCB MAXRECL: The MAXRECL must be the same for all component files.

• OPERCOM ADAEND/CANCEL: The Adabas nucleus was not active.

• OPERCOM CLUFREEUSER: One or more otherwise eligible UTEs were not deleted because they were due a response code 9 (ADARSP009), subcode 20, and FORCE was not specified.

• OPERCOM DUQE: The user queue element (UQE) for the specified user ID was not found.

NEWWORK: Attempt to write RLOG information or close RLOG data set failed.

One of the following occurred:

• The utility's DIB entry was removed by another user during ADAINV operation.

• (all functions) Attempt to write RLOG information or close RLOG database failed.

• ADAINV was restarted, but at least one of the descriptors to be inverted was already in the index. The index is correct.

• ADAINV INVERT was run on a component file of an expanded file. The other component files must be explicitly inverted.

One of the following occurred:

• (all functions) Attempt to write RLOG information or close RLOG data set failed.

• In an UPDATE function, the allocation of a file-specific DLOG extension failed. ADALOD completed the UPDATE function, but marked the whole file as changed; it did not log the Data Storage and address converter RABNs of blocks that were actually changed.

• The utility has processed files in a LOB group (a base file and its corresponding LOB file) that were incorrectly linked to each other or marked as being out-of-sync.

• The utility has been unable to establish or validate the base-to-LOB file linkage in a LOB group because one of the files was locked or otherwise unavailable.

• The utility has been unable to validate the base-to-LOB file consistency in a LOB group because some input records were not loaded due to the use of the SKIPREC/NUMREC parameters.

• The utility has processed a file in a LOB group (a base file and its corresponding LOB file) where Adabas has been unable to track whether the two files in the group have stayed in sync.

One of the following occurred:

• The input records loaded in a file in a LOB group (a base file and its associated LOB file) were unloaded from a file that had been marked as being out-of-sync with the other file.

• The file in a LOB group (a base file and its associated LOB file) that was loaded or updated had a different status with respect to LOB updates than the other file in the LOB group.

• Inconsistencies were detected in a LOB file from which LOB values were to be deleted.

One of the following occurred:

• The utility's DIB entry has been removed by another user during ADAORD operation.

• RESTRUCTURE functions: Initialization of RLOG processing failed.

• RESTRUCTUREDB: Attempt to initialize RLOG access failed.

• RESTRUCTUREF: Attempt to initialize RLOG access failed.

• A system file was excluded from ADAORD STORE operation.

• MAXRECL was specified for a component of an expanded file. Ensure that the same MAXRECL is specified for all components.

• The utility has processed files in a LOB group (a base file and its corresponding LOB file) that were incorrectly linked to each other or marked as being out-of-sync.

ADARAI RECOVER cannot create the job control statements needed for the sequential file used during utility execution. The message "unknown file element" is returned and the RECOVER function completes with return code 4. The generated job control must then be edited. See message ADAR78.

• A bad ISN/RABN length indicator was detected in the FCB.

• At least one parent field in the FDT has no corresponding special descriptor table (SDT) field.

• An invalid FDT/SDT length was detected.

• The count of coupled files is greater than 18.

• There are inconsistencies in the expanded file chain.

• The volume serial number could not be identified.

• For a report from an online save tape, either no protection log was specified, an invalid protection log was specified, or an error was encountered while processing the protection log.

One of the following occurred:

• (Adabas Delta Save Facility Facility) An error occurred in a PLCOPY or COPY function when processing the delta save images (DSIM) data set. Building the DSIM data set was discontinued. The PLCOPY or COPY function continued normally. RC 8 is also given in all cases where the DSIM data set is necessary but is not available or is not usable.

• REGENERATE or BACKOUT function determined that one or more files in the file list were in an inconsistent state; that is, in load, reorder, refresh, or restore status. Processing continues for all other files in the file list.

An error occurred after the PLCOPY/CLCOPY function successfully closed the DDSIAUS1 or DDSIAUS2 data set. The error message is printed in DDDRUCK.

One of the following occurred:

• (all functions) Attempt to write RLOG information or close RLOG data set failed.

• (Adabas Delta Save Facility Facility) The nucleus returned a response code after ET synchronization at the end of an online save operation, but the online save operation was nevertheless completed successfully. The response code was ignored by ADASAV.

• The utility's DIB entry was removed by another user during ADASAV operation.

• MERGE: Attempt to initialize RLOG access failed.

• REPLICATION FOR FILE file-number IS SWITCHED OFF BECAUSE REPLICATION IS NOT ACTIVE.

• RESTORE (database) or RESTORE GCB: Attempt to initialize RLOG access failed.

• RESTORE could not be performed for a file that was already present because OVERWRITE was not specified.

• RESTONL (database) or RESTONL GCB: Attempt to initialize RLOG access failed.

• SAVE could not be performed on a file that was inaccessible. The file is in load, refresh, reorder, or restore status.

No records were found matching the selection criterion.

One of the following has occurred:

• No records were found using ADAULD selection criteria/values.

• UNLOAD: Attempt to initialize RLOG access failed.

The nucleus returned a non-zero response code. Depending on the ERRLIM parameter of ADAULD UNLOAD, the function may continue. Unloaded data can be used, but records may be missing depending on the particular response code returned.

No autorestart information available on Work Part 1

Autorestart will not complete successfully .

This return code is returned instead of an abend when the NOUSERABEND parameter is specified.
