Adabas Response Codes

The command was executed successfully.

The meaning of this response code varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

Depending on the subcode in the rightmost two bytes of the ACB's Additions 2 field or the ACBX's Error Subcode (ACBXERRC) field, one of the following has occurred:

Open Systems

An ISN list could not be sorted as a result of an excessive number of resulting ISNs, or because during a non-descriptor search a value larger than the corresponding field length in the FDT was found, or because the ISN quantity returned does not correspond with the actual number of records found.

For an S9 command, this response indicates that there is no space available for additional temporary working space. For an S2 command, this response is only a warning and the S2 becomes an S1.

The method of resolving the error varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

Increase the ADARUN LS parameter value.

Open Systems

Provide sufficient disk space for temporary working space or adapt the FDT to the real field length.

The meaning of this response code varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

This response code can only occur with a BT, ET or RI command. The BT, ET or RI command executes successfully. One of the following has occurred, depending on the subcode:

Open Systems

The required function has not been executed completely. For an OP command with command option 2 = E or for an RE command, the specified record buffer length was shorter than the length of the ET data read. The record buffer has been truncated.

For an A1//N1/N2 command, a descriptor value with the TR option is larger than 1144 bytes. In this case, only the first 1144 bytes are stored in the index. Search operations for truncated values may be inexact since only the first 1144 bytes are evaluated. The first 2 bytes of the Additions 2 field contain the number of descriptor values truncated, the third and fourth bytes contain the field name of the descriptor value that is truncated.

For an S1/S2/S4/S9 command, the resulting ISN list may not represent the exact result: this is because the search values and the values in the database were truncated after 1144 bytes during the search operation of an S1/S2/S4 command and during the sort operation of an S2/S9 command.

The method of resolving the error varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Open Systems

For an OP or RE command, increase the record buffer length or ignore the warning.

For an S1/S2/S4/S9 command, either perform a post-selection using the complete field values, perform your own sort operation using the complete field values, or ignore the warning.

One of the following has occurred:

• An end-of-file or end-of-list condition was detected.

• A program tried to read or change a multiclient file's record using either a blank or incorrect-length owner ID, or an owner ID that is not allowed for the record.

The following are some possible subcodes:

The internal Adabas TRS storage directory is full.

Free some of the active queries.

A complex search command was rejected because it was estimated that it would exceed the maximum search time TLSCMD.

The current user's command was interrupted to prevent a Work overflow because of a pending backout operation.

The value specified for the LP parameter might have to be increased.

The meaning of this response code varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

A subcode indicating the specific cause and action for this response code appears in the low-order (rightmost) two bytes of the ACB's Additions 2 field or in the ACBX's Error Subcode (ACBXERRC) field. The following are the subcodes and their meanings:

Open Systems

This response is caused by one of the following:

• The last user transaction has been backed out by Adabas (ET logic users only) or an exclusive control user (non-ET user) or an access-only user exceeded the Non-Activity Time Limit;

• The user session was abnormally terminated by the operator and the user issued a command;

• The protection log area (= WORK container) was too small and an internal BT was executed.

The ADDITIONS 2 field in the control block contains additional information:

The information in the first two bytes is represented as an integer, and the third and fourth bytes are alphanumeric.

The method of resolving the error varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

User actions are described in the subcode list in the explanation.

Open Systems

Check the appropriate reason. If the Adabas nucleus was started without the option OPEN_REQUIRED, and the reason for response 9 was a non-activity timeout or a STOP user, users who started their sessions with an OP command must re-issue their OP command under the following circumstances:

• if they set a User ID

• if they specified restricted file lists

• if they had user-specific timeout values

• if they were not ET users.

If too many transactions are backed out because of a Work overflow, the size of the Work container should be increased.

Too many occurrences for a periodic group.

An error occurred in an MC call during subcommand processing. The error code and additional information can be found in the control block of the subcommand. The first 2 bytes of the Additions 2 field contain the number of the subcommand in binary format. The third and fourth bytes of the Additions 2 field contain the offset of the subcommand's control block in the MC call's record buffer in binary format. All subcommands before the one that failed were executed.

Correct the failed subcommand if necessary and re-issue the subcommands beginning with the one that had failed.

A subcode indicating the specific cause and action for this response code appears in the low-order (rightmost) two bytes of the ACB's Additions 2 field or in the ACBX's Error Subcode (ACBXERRC) field. The following are the subcodes and their meanings:

Invalid file number usage. The file number was modified between successive L2/L5 calls or between successive Lx and Sx calls.

Correct the file number.

An attempt was made to update a file which is either already open for read access or can only be opened for read access. The leftmost two bytes of ACB's Additions 2 field or the ACBX's File Number (ACBXFNR) field may contain the file number.

Do not attempt to update a file with read-only access.

One of the following invalid values was used for a command ID value:

• Binary zeros

• Blanks

• The high-order byte contains the hexadecimal value "FF", but there is no automatic command ID generation

• The three high-order bytes contain the ASCII string "SYN".

Correct the command ID and avoid using any of these invalid command ID values.

An invalid command ID value was detected. One of the following explanations or subcodes is provided:

Correct the command ID.

The command or command option is invalid. A subcode indicating the specific cause and action for this response code appears in the low-order (rightmost) two bytes of the ACB's Additions 2 field or in the ACBX's Error Subcode (ACBXERRC) field.

When using the LNCSTUB module on mainframe systems, this response code may indicate problems with the initial call (IC) to the Adabas CICS command-level link component. If the Adabas control block shows a command code of "IC", the link routine being used may not be at the proper release level or may not be the command-level version.

The following are the subcodes and their meanings:

Correct the command code or command option or the previous OP command, and rerun the program.

An invalid starting ISN was specified for an L2/L5 command sequence:

• The ISN was not assigned to a record in the file; or

• The ISN was greater than the MAXISN in effect for the file.

Open Systems

On open systems the following subcodes may occur:

Correct the ISN.

The meaning of this response code varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

For an S9 command:

• The ISN list in the ISN buffer was already sorted; or

• The ISN list in the ISN buffer contained an invalid ISN; or

• The "D" option was specified when trying to sort an ISN list by ISN.

Open Systems

An ISN is equal to "0" or is greater than or equal to the first free ISN found in the ISN buffer. The Additions 2 field contains the value of the invalid ISN in 4 byte binary format.

Correct the ISN buffer.

The ISN specified in ISN lower limit field for an S1/S4 or S2/S9 command was not found.

Open Systems

On open systems the following subcodes may occur:

Correct the ISN lower limit.

An invalid ISN buffer length for an S9 command was detected. The number of ISNs to be sorted as provided in ISN quantity is equal to "0".

Depending on the subcode in the rightmost two bytes of the ACB's Additions 2 field or the ACBX's Error Subcode (ACBXERRC) field, one of the following has occurred:

Correct the ISN buffer length.

Sufficient work space was not available to accommodate the combined sizes of the search and value buffers as indicated in the search buffer length and value buffer length fields.

The first two bytes of the Additions 1 field contained an invalid descriptor for an L3/L6 or S2/S9 command.

Depending on the subcode in the rightmost two bytes of the ACB's Additions 2 field or the ACBX's Error Subcode (ACBXERRC) field, one of the following has occurred:

Correct the Additions 1 field.

In an L3 or L6 command, a value repositioning was attempted (bytes 3-8 of the Additions 1 field contain spaces) and the Command Option 2 field did not contain the value "A", "D", or "V". The command ID is released.

Correct the Additions 1 or Command Option 2 field.

An invalid command option has been detected.

Depending on the subcode in the rightmost two bytes of the ACB's Additions 2 field or the ACBX's Error Subcode (ACBXERRC) field, one of the following has occurred:

Either remove the invalid command option or replace it with a valid option.

The user/DBA attempted to perform a function for a noncluster Adabas nucleus that is available only for an Adabas cluster database.

Either perform the function against a cluster database or change the function.

A logically deleted descriptor was used as a search criterion or was specified in the first two bytes of the Additions 1 field for an L3, L6, L9, S2, or S9 command.

Remove the use of the logically deleted descriptor and inform your database administrator about the problem.

A syntax error was detected in the format buffer.

Mainframe Systems

On mainframe systems, one of the following subcodes may be used:

On mainframe systems, the following information is returned in the Additions 2 field of the control block:

• The rightmost two bytes contain the name of the field being processed when the error was detected.

Correct the format buffer.

The meaning of this response code varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

One or more specification errors exist in the format buffer. When possible, the short name of the field for which the error occurred is stored at offset 2 of the ACB's Additions 2 field or in the ACBX's Error Character Field (ACBXERRB).

The following specification errors may have been made:

Open Systems

• A field with the NC option was used more than once together with its S element;

• The add option is not compatible with the format/length;

• The specification of a character set was invalid;

• A field was specified with an edit mask not allowed for the field;

• A field segment notation '(byte-number,length)' or '(byte-number,length,length-2)' was not correct: byte-number + length must be less than or equal to the maximum value length + 1, and length-2 must be equal to length. The maximum value for LB fields is 2,147,483,643, for LA fields 16381, an for other values 253 bytes;

• The rightmost two bytes contain the name of the field being processed when the error was detected.

Correct the specification error and reissue the command or job. For more information about syntax rules for multiple field and periodic group indexing, refer to the Adabas Command Reference documentation.

A space problem occurred. The following are the subcodes and their meanings:

See the actions described in the subcodes.

In an L9 command, the descriptor specified in the format buffer did not agree with the descriptor specified in the search buffer.

Correct the format buffer or the search buffer.

The meaning of this response code varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

One of the following format buffer errors occurred (subcodes are shown in the leftmost column):

Open Systems

One of the following situations occurred:

Correct the format buffer or use a different read or update command.

The meaning of this response code varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

The internal format buffer space has been exceeded. Either the LWP parameter setting is too small or the internal format buffer requires more than 2 G.

Open Systems

Multiple field or periodic group overflowed when using the N suffix in the format buffer for update.

The following information is returned in the Additions 2 field of the control block:

• The first two bytes will contain the number of the byte (in binary format) relative to the beginning of the record where the error was detected;

• The third and fourth bytes will contain the name of the field being processed when the error was detected.

The method of resolving the error varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

Increase the size of the LWP parameter and try again. If the problem persists, contact your Software AG technical support representative for assistance.

Open Systems

Because the multiple field or periodic group reached its absolute limit, the application must be redesigned.

The meaning of this response code varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

The maximum value for the NQCID parameter was exceeded (the number of TBI and/or TBQ elements is greater than NQCID).

Open Systems

Mismatch of format buffer usage for the supplied command ID.

• A command ID of global ID format buffer has been found in the format pool and has a different file number to the file supplied by the caller;

• The file number was changed in subsequent Adabas calls with the same normal or global command ID.

The method of resolving the error varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

Adjust the size of the NQCID parameter and try again.

Open Systems

Check the command IDs used in the call and try again.

The maximum value for the NISNHQ parameter was exceeded. The following subcodes appearing in the low-order (rightmost) two bytes of the ACB's Additions 2 field or in the ACBX's Error Subcode (ACBXERRC) field provide more detailed information.

Increase the value of the NISNHQ parameter by modifying its ADARUN parameter value in the nucleus startup file, or (on open systems) using ADAOPR.

An error occurred during the processing of a command such as OP or N1. Refer to the hexadecimal subcode that appears in the low-order (rightmost) two bytes of the ACB's Additions 2 field or in the ACBX's Error Subcode (ACBXERRC) field.

On open systems, the corresponding file number is returned in the first two bytes of the Additions 2 field in binary format except for value 8 in the third and fourth byte. The value 0 means the whole database.

The following user actions are possible:

• Wait for the other user or utility to finish, then retry the command.

• Make the file available for all users (on open systems, if value 16 occurred in bytes 3 and 4).

• Restore or unlock the file (on open systems, if value 17 occurred in bytes 3 and 4).

• Rebuild the file's index (on open systems, if value 18 occurred in bytes 3 and 4).

• On open systems, if the value in bytes 3 and 4 of the Additions 2 field is 8, and the nucleus was started with the OPEN_REQUIRED option, you can reissue the OP command immediately. This will cause the other user with the same user ID to be stopped, unless that user is currently active.

• On open systems, if a utility receives a response 48 because non-utility users are still active, you can lock the file with ADAOPR LOCK. This ADAOPR command stops all non-utility users from accessing the file and allows only utility users to access the file until it is unlocked again.

  On mainframe systems, if a utility receives a response 48 because non-utility users are still active, you can lock the file with ADADBS MODFCB FILEREADONLY. The FILEREADONLY command stops all non-utility users from accessing the file and allows only utility users to access the file until it is unlocked again.

The compressed record was too long. It exceeds the maximum permitted compressed record length for the file.

On open systems, the first two bytes of the Additions 2 field contain the length of the compressed record in binary format.

On mainframe systems, the following subcodes may be indicated:

On open systems, add a new DATA extent with sufficient block size (block size >= compressed record size + 8). Alternatively you can start the nucleus with OPTIONS=AUTO_EXPAND; then the Adabas nucleus automatically creates a new DATA extent with sufficient block size.

A syntax error in the record buffer was detected during processing of an OP command, an invalid character set was specified, an invalid time zone was specified, or an invalid file number (zero or greater than maxfiles) was specified.

On open systems, the first two bytes of the Additions 2 field contain the number of bytes (in binary format) relative to the beginning of the record buffer where the error was detected. If a time zone problem occurs, the two right-most bytes of the Additions 2 field in the ACB will contain a subcode; in an ACBX, the Error Subcode field will contain the subcode.

Correct the record buffer and try again.

An error in the record buffer was detected during processing of an OP command.

One of the keywords EXU, UPD, ACC or WCHARSET is duplicated.

On open systems, the following information is returned in the Additions 2 field of the control block:

• the first two bytes contain the number of bytes (in binary format) relative to the beginning of the record buffer where the error was detected;

• the third and fourth bytes contain the open mode that failed (ACC =1, UPD = 2, EXU = 4, WCHARSET = 128)

Correct the record buffer and try again.

The meaning of this response code varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

One of the following errors occurred while processing the record, value, or search buffer. In an ACB, the rightmost two bytes of the Additions 2 field contain the subcode; for subcodes 1-5, the leftmost two bytes contain the Adabas name of the field where the error occurred. In an ACBX, the subcode is stored in the Error Subcode (ACBXERRC) field; for subcodes 1-5, the Adabas field name where the error occurred is stored in the Error Character Field (ACBXERRB).

Open Systems

• The value of a G format field was not in floating point format;

• The value of a P format field was not in packed decimal format;

• The value of a U format field was not in unpacked decimal format;

• A variable-length field was specified without a length parameter;

• The SQL null value indicator (S element) has a value of less than -1;

• A field with the NN option is forced to take the SQL null value;

• The resulting value exceeds 4 bytes (longword) if the format is F, or exceeds the maximum (format dependant) length;

• No record with the specified ADAM key was found.

The following information is returned in the Additions 2 field of the control block:

• The first two bytes contain the number of the byte (in binary format) relative to the beginning of the record/value buffer where the error was detected. This value is -1 if a field with the NN option is forced to take the SQL null value.;

• The third and fourth bytes contain the name of the field being processed when the error was detected.

Correct the format, record, value, or search buffer and try again.

The meaning of this response code varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

One of the following errors occurred:

Open Systems

The record buffer was too small, or the ISN buffer was too small for a requested multifetch command. The following information is returned in the Additions 2 field of the control block:

• The first two bytes contain the expected buffer size in binary format. This value is -1 if the command would have exceeded the maximum record size.

• The third and fourth bytes contain the name of the buffer that was too small. ("RB" or "IB"). If the error occurred while using a hyperdescriptor exit, the name of the hyperdescriptor exit is stored here.

Increase the record buffer or ISN buffer size, as appropriate.

The record buffer for a C3, C5, or ET command is too long. The maximum allowed size is 2048 bytes. The following subcodes provide more information:

Correct the record buffer specification, then reissue the C3, C5, or ET command.

The meaning of this response code varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

One of the following occurred:

• During a read-type operation, a field defined with the SQL null (NC) option contained a null value, but the format buffer held no "S" (significant null) indicator for the field.

  In an ACB, the Additions 2 may contain the field name in the leftmost two bytes; the rightmost two bytes may contain the offset into the record buffer. In an ACBX, the Error Character Field (ACBXERRB) may contain the field name; the Error Offset in Buffer (ACBXERRA or ACBXERRG) fields may contain the offset into the record buffer.

• Attempted format conversion was not possible due to incompatible data formats or other compatibility problems.

  In an ACB, the Additions 2 will contain the field name in the leftmost two bytes; the rightmost two bytes will contain the offset into the record buffer. In an ACBX, the Error Character Field (ACBXERRB) will contain the field name; the Error Subcode (ACBXERRC) field will contain the subcode.

  Subcode	Meaning
  0	Conversion error on record decompression.
  1	Invalid conversion between formats.
  2	Invalid length for fixed encoding. For example, user encoding Unicode with code-point size of 2 bytes and no even length specified.
  4	Conversion error of a floating-point field (underflow) when converting to/from a non-IBM floating-point format.
  5	One of the following conditions exists: Format conversion of a field with the NV option is not allowed. In a read command (Lx, Sx), the format buffer of a field containing a null value is defined with the NC option, but without the NN option, and is missing the SQL significance indicator (S). For read-type commands, the S indicator is required when the NC fields are defined without the NN option. If the S indicator is not present when a read command detects an NC-specified field and the field actually contains a null value, this response code and subcode are returned.
  6	An invalid length was specified ( for example, a wide character field in Unicode encoding must have an even length).
  7	Invalid conversion between formats (different case than subcode 1).
  8	Conversion error of a floating-point field (overflow) when converting to/from a non-IBM floating-point format.
  9	A one-byte field was provided in the record buffer for the occurrence count of an MU field or PE group in a file with extended MU/PE limits. A two-byte occurrence count value is expected.
  10	A field using the NC field option has a null value and no S indicator was specified in the format buffer.
  20	Unsupported date-time conversion -- internal error.
  21	Date-time value outside valid range. The valid range depends on the date-time edit masks being used in the format or search buffer and the FDT.
  22	Invalid local time – (non-existing local time in the gap that occurs when switching from standard to daylight saving time or when the time zone advances GMT offset)
  23	Year outside range of 1-9999.
  24	Month outside range of 1-12.
  25	Day outside range of 1-n.
  26	Hours outside range of 0-24.
  27	Minutes outside range of 0-59.
  28	Seconds outside range of 0-59.
  30	Accessing a field defined with option TZ but no time zone was specified in the user session. Issue the OP command with TZ='timezone' parameter in the record buffer to set the time zone for the user session.
  31	Invalid daylight saving offset given (fldD) for date-time and time zone.
  n	Data between user and system data representation could not be converted without error and 2-byte error code from ECS.
  254	Numeric field length in format shorter than the field length in the FDT.
  255	Field length exceeded maximum for variable fields.

  Entire Conversion Service (ECS) error codes are described in Entire Conversion Service (ECS) Errors, elsewhere in the Adabas Messages documentation.

Open Systems

A format, length conversion, or truncation error occurred while processing field values in the record buffer or value buffer.

• The value for an FI field is too long;

• The resulting value exceeds the border of the FI field;

• Truncation error of numeric field;

• Truncation of alphanumeric fields or truncation of numeric fields which are converted to alphanumeric, except when OPTIONS=TRUNCATION is enabled in ADANUC;

• A value defined without LA or L4 option with variable length is larger than 253 bytes. This may happen for Unicode fields after conversion to another encoding.

• The length specified for a Unicode field for a character set with fixed character length is not a multiple of the character length: in particular, the length for UTF-16 based character sets must be a multiple of 2, and the length for UTF-32 based character sets must be a multiple of 4;

• The specified value is not a valid date/time value;

• The field does not contain a valid date/time value. This can happen if the value was stored without a date/time edit mask;

• A date/time field with option TZ was specified in the format or search buffer, but there was no time zone specified in an OP command for the current Adabas user session;

• The attempted format conversion was not possible due to incompatible data formats or other compatibility problems.

The following information is returned in the first two bytes of the Additions 2 field, and in the case of an ACBX, also in the field ACBXERRC:

The field name is returned in the third and fourth byte of the Additions 2 field, and in the case of an ACBX in the field ACBXERRB.

In addition, the following information is returned in the case of an ACBX call:

• The offset in the record or value buffer in ACBXERRA;

• The type of buffer in ACBXERRD (‘R’ for error in record buffer, ‘V’for error in value buffer).

Depending on the reason:

• Correct the appropriate buffer and try again;

• If the time zone specification in the OP command is missing, execute an appropriate OP command;

• On open systems, if a record structure error is indicated, run ADAVFY FIELD against the corresponding file. If this produces errors, then the file must be unloaded, decompressed, recompressed and reloaded;

• On open systems, subcodes 2 and 5 should never occur; you should, therefore, contact your nearest support center if you receive one of these subcodes. A copy of the command log and an export copy or backup of the files accessed will help us to analyze the problem.

One of the following occurred:

Store a shorter descriptor value or collation value.

On open systems, you also can specify the TR option for the descriptor, which truncates larger descriptor values before they are stored in the index. Note that with the TR option, search results may be inaccurate: this is because values that are identical in the first 1144 bytes are considered to be equal to each other.

In an L9 command, the descriptor specified in the format or search buffer or in the Additions 1 field was invalid or the descriptor was not specified:

• The field name specified may not be the name of a descriptor.

• The descriptor specified may be a phonetic descriptor or a hyperdescriptor, which are not allowed in an L9 command.

• On open systems, the descriptor specified may be a collation descriptor with the option HE.

Correct the descriptor in the format buffer, search buffer, or Additions 1 field and try again.

The format could not be found (as defined within format selection criteria).

Adjust the format specification and try again.

Format conversion of a subfield is not possible. The source field has fixed point (F) or floating point (G) format.

Correct the field for which you are attempting format conversion and try again.

The meaning of this response code varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

A syntax error was detected in the format or search buffer. Generally in an ACB, the first two bytes of the Additions 2 field contain the two characters under inspection when the error was detected and the rightmost two bytes of the Additions 2 field in the ACB contain one of the following subcodes. In an ACBX, the Error Character Field (ACBXERRB) contains the two characters under inspection when the error was detected and the Error Subcode (ACBXERRC) field contains one of the following subcodes.

Open Systems

A syntax error was detected in the search buffer.

• The first two bytes will contain the number of the byte (in binary format) relative to the beginning of the search buffer where the error was detected;

• The third and fourth bytes will contain the name of the field being processed when the error was detected.

Correct the format or search buffer and try again.

An error was detected in the search buffer, value buffer, or during an S8 command.

Mainframe Systems

On mainframe systems, one of the following subcodes may also be included with this response code:

Open Systems

On open systems, an error was detected in the search or value buffer, or during an S8 command:

• Invalid command option 2 specified for ISN LIST processing (S8 command);

• Invalid element or element order;

• The specified field was neither a descriptor, subdescriptor, superdescriptor nor a phonetic descriptor;

• Invalid connection of partial criteria and/or different indices used for a descriptor contained within a periodic group;

• Invalid use of a phonetic descriptor;

• Invalid periodic group index;

• Invalid index usage;

• The length of a descriptor value was greater than 253 or greater than the permitted length for the required format;

• Invalid format type;

• Invalid file number specification;

• Invalid usage of the S operator - FROM value greater than TO value;

• Invalid usage of the N operator - BUT NOT value was outside the range of the preceding FROM-TO range;

• Invalid comparator;

• The value in the value buffer cannot be converted into the field's FDT format;

• The specified file name is not an ADAM key while using the V option with an A1 or E1 command;

• Invalid value given in the value buffer while using the V option with the A1 or E1 command;

• Invalid usage of the C option - only allowed for collation descriptors;

• A field was specified with an edit mask that is not allowed for the field.

The following information is returned in the Additions 2 field of the control block (not for the S8 command):

• The first two bytes will contain the number of the byte (in binary format) relative to the beginning of the search buffer where the error was detected;

• If the third byte is zero, the fourth byte contains more information about the error:

  • Fourth byte 1: invalid length.

  Otherwise the third and fourth bytes will contain the name of the field being processed when the error was detected.

Correct the search or value buffer or S8 command and try again.

One of the following has occurred:

• The length of the search or value buffers as specified in the search and value buffer length fields, respectively, was not sufficient to accommodate the search criteria specified.

• The first character in the search buffer was a period (.).

• The search buffer does not contain a period (.).

Correct the search or value buffer and try again.

The command ID value specified in the search buffer was invalid.

On open systems, the value in the first two bytes of the Additions 2 field indicates the reason (2 byte binary format):

Correct the command ID in the search buffer and try again.

This response code is used for communication with Adabas utilities and Adabas Online System (AOS), and was returned because the requested function could not be performed on the Adabas system (including checkpoint and security) files or because an error occurred in an AOS or utility function.

The following table shows some of the subcodes that may be returned:

Refer to the ADAREP output report for a list of the system files, or to the subcodes in the job output for more information. For AOS, a subcode is displayed in the error message, following the AOS module number. For utility functions, the subcodes may be described within the message text.

Natural provides a trace facility which locates such Natural application characteristics. Contact Software AG for details.

An overflow occurred in the table of sequential commands.

The DBA may increase the value used for the LQ parameter or RC commands may be used.

An overflow occurred in the table of resulting ISN lists.

The DBA may increase the value used for the LI parameter or RC commands may be used.

One of the following errors occurred:

The DBA may increase the value used for the NU parameter.

An overflow occurred in the section of the Work data set (mainframe systems) or the temporary working space (open systems) in which resulting ISN lists are stored.

On open systems, please note that for read-only databases, temporary working space is only created if a location for it is explicitly specified (environment variable TEMPLOCn or entries for TEMPORARY_LOCATION in the file DBnnn.INI); otherwise only some of the space in the Adabas buffer pool is used for storing the ISN lists.

On mainframe systems, the DBA may increase the size of the Work data set and/or the number of saved ISN lists during an Adabas session may be decreased.

On open systems, provide enough temporary working space. For read-only databases, specify the location for the temporary working space explicitly or increase the size of the Adabas buffer pool (ADANUC parameter LBP).

No space was available on the Work data set for complex find commands.

On open systems, increase the size of the Work data set.

On mainframe systems, increasing the size of the Work data set alone will not solve this problem. Instead, set the value of LWKP2 (WORK-PART-2) to a higher value than the calculated one (whatever that might be). Then increase the size of the Work data set to ensure there is sufficient space for WORK-PART-3.

Attempts to allocate additional Associator or Data Storage extents for a file were issued, but the maximum number of extents that can be handled by the FCB have already been allocated.

On mainframe systems, BT (backout) or autorestart processing could cause the file to be locked because of inadequate extent space (see response code 48, ADARSP048).

On open systems, the last extent is allocated only for a command which is being backed out and for AUTORESTART and ADAREC REGENERATE. The first two bytes of the Additions 2 field contain the highest possible extent number (in binary format). The third and fourth bytes indicate where the overflow occurred. Possible values are: "DS" (Data Storage), "AC" (Address Converter), "NI" (Normal Index) and "UI" (Upper Index).

On mainframe systems, ask your DBA for assistance; Associator or Data Storage extents may have to be reallocated.

On open systems, unload the file and reload it with appropriate initial allocations.

An overflow occurred in an inverted list index (the maximum is 15 levels).

Unload and reload the file with an appropriate padding factor for the Associator.

Sufficient space was not available for a required Associator or Data Storage extent.

On mainframe systems, the following subcodes further define the error:

On open systems, the third and fourth bytes of the Additions 2 field contain either "AS" (Associator) or "DS" (Data Storage). You can also get the response 77 if you specified an explicit RABN for an Associator or Data Storage extent and the requested space is not available at the requested RABN. Please note that Adabas distinguishes between small (< 16KB) and large (>= 16KB) index blocks. This means that a response 77 can be returned even though there are enough free Associator blocks, but the free Associator blocks have the wrong size.

On mainframe systems, ask your DBA for assistance; Associator or Data Storage extents may have to be reallocated.

On open systems, add a new Associator or Data Storage extent to the database using the ADADBM utility or specify a RABN where the requested space is available.

The meaning of this response code varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

The cause of this response is indicated by one of the following subcodes:

Open Systems

An overflow occurred in the free space table (FST) as a result of Associator or Data Storage fragmentation, or the maximum number of DSST extents has already been allocated.

The method of resolving the error varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Mainframe Systems

If the file has reached the 16-MB limit, you might convert it to a file with the 4-byte ISN option or to an expanded file. If ISNREUSE is in effect, ADABAS ISNREUSE=ON, RESET can be used to reset the rotating ISN pointer or the file can be reloaded to eliminate the fragmentation.

If the file has NOACEXTENSION specified, look for alternatives to increase the file size such as adding an additional file to the expanded file chain. If the file is not part of an expanded file chain, you may want to reload the file to remove the restriction.

Open Systems

If it is an FST problem, reorder the database. If it is a DSST problem, which can only occur in the context of a utility, refer to the message DSSTALL for further information.

The meaning of this response code varies, depending on whether you are using Adabas on mainframe systems or Adabas on open systems.

Increase the size of the LBP parameter.

A hyperdescriptor exit return error occurred for one of the following reasons:

• An incorrect sign for a packed descriptor value was created.

• A value with an incorrect length byte was returned.

• The ISN was changed by an update command.

On open systems, the following information is returned in the Additions 2 field of the control block:

• The first two bytes contain a value. This value can be:

  1	the hyperdescriptor pool exceeds the nucleus buffer pool
  2	the hyperdescriptor exit has returned an invalid pointer, length or count value
  3	an element in the user-defined format buffer is not a parent field of the hyperdescriptor
  4 - 255	Adabas response code
  >255	user-defined error return for hyperdescriptor exit routine

• The third and fourth bytes contain the name of the hyperdescriptor or the name of the parent field.

The Adabas buffer pool is locked; it is too small to accommodate all blocks needed for (parallel) command execution.

Check the length of the buffer pool (LBP) as follows:

This response code generally occurs when there is a workpool (LWP) shortage. Sufficient work pool space is not available or the sort work space is too small (even if only one user is active).

On mainframes systems, when this response code occurs, refer to the hexadecimal subcode that appears in the low-order (rightmost) two bytes of the ACB's Additions 2 field or in the ACBX's Error Subcode (ACBXERRC) field. This subcode describes what kind of operation encountered the error.

The following table describes the mainframe subcodes and provides recommended actions.

For mainframe systems, review the actions described in the table above.

For open systems, verify the parameter values for the database that relate to the working storage allocation. Ask your DBA to increase the size of the LWP or LS parameter, as necessary.

An invalid buffer length was detected by the Adabas interface routine. If the command uses a classic ACB, the buffer is larger than 32,767. If the command uses an ACBX, the buffer is greater than 2,147,483,647, or the send length in the ABD is greater than the buffer length. The subcode identifies the buffer type:

Open Systems

An invalid buffer length was detected by the Adabas interface routine, in an MC call, or one of the following errors occurred for a multifetch command:

• the buffer header was invalid (both offsets are set)

• at least one ISN buffer offset was not divisible by 4

• the start offset was outside the multicall buffer range

• the record buffer was not large enough to contain all subcommand control blocks.

The value in the Additions 2 field identifies the buffer: the first 2 bytes contain the buffer number in binary format, the last two bytes contain the buffer name, as shown in the following table:

                  Bytes 1-2        Bytes 3-4
                     1             FB (format buffer)
