Text

UPDATE loop for path ... to ESDS file ... not supported.

Explanation

CICS only supports path access to an ESDS file with restricted
options. The related RBA for the ESDS base record is not
returned from the READNEXT/READPREV path call by CICS,
and an UPDATE is therefore not possible.

Action

In this case, use native AIX file processing.

If the file is a member of an UPGRADE set, increase the max. CI size
or enlarge the file.

Text

END of TRANSACTION not successful, RC: ....

Explanation

Under CICS, this error may be caused, for example, by a failure in the
synchronization of remote systems.
In DFSMStvs, a program or environmental error has occurred, or the
Resource Recovery Service (RRS) is not available.

Action

Under CICS, use CEDF to determine the cause of this error.
In DFSMStvs, refer to the IBM documentation on Callable RRS.

Text

BACKOUT TRANSACTION not successful, RC: ....

Explanation

Under CICS, this error may be caused, for example, by a failure in the
synchronization of remote systems.
In DFSMStvs, a program or environmental error has occurred, or the
Resource Recovery Service (RRS) is not available.

Action

Under CICS, use CEDF to determine the cause of this error.

Action

Either set the OPRB parameter to 'O' (for output) for this database,
or omit the OPRB parameter.
Check the NTDB setting in the Natural parameter module.

Text

Overflow of FCT table.

Explanation

Natural for VSAM's internal file control table is full.

Action

Increase parameter TAFE in the NTVSAM macro of the Natural parameter
module.

Text

Now it is too late for BACKOUT TRANSACTION.

Explanation

The program contains a design error: it attempts to backout updates
which have already been committed.
The most likely reason is that a terminal I/O has forced the end of
the logical transaction; that is, internally a SYNCPOINT command has
already been executed by the TP monitor at the time when the BACKOUT
TRANSACTION statement is executed.
Nevertheless, Natural VSAM has executed a BACKOUT TRANSACTION. This
means that the actual scope of the BACKOUT TRANSACTION is different
from the expected one.

Action

Correct error in program.

Text

Working storage for user exit ... cannot be allocated.

Explanation

Overflow on Natural internal buffer CFWSIZE.

Action

Contact Software AG support.

Text

DDM ... not found in the system file.

Explanation

Natural for VSAM also uses the DDM at execution;
however, at execution time the required DDM was not existent on
the current FDIC system file.

Action

Contact your Natural administrator.
