ISN list not sorted. DB/FNR/Subcode .../.../.... |
Explanation |
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. |
Action |
Provide sufficient disk space for temporary working space or adapt the FDT to the actual field length. |
Text |

Last transaction backed out of database .... Subcode .... |
Explanation |
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 nucleus was abnormally terminated and the user issued a command; - Protection log area was too small and an internal BT was executed; - The Adabas node has been restarted or in an Adabas cluster environment a primary/secondary switch took place; - In high-availability (HA) mode, ADALNK was used as access method instead of the fully supported native ADATCP access method. The ADDITIONS 2 field in the CB contains additional information which is described in details in the Adabas documentation. |

Mismatch of format buffer usage for supplied CID. DB/FNR .../.... |
Explanation |
Mismatch of format buffer usage for the supplied command ID. - A test option user has supplied a different format buffer than that of the previous Adabas call. - A non-test option user, using global command IDs, may receive this response when a test option user has supplied an incorrect format buffer for the global command ID. - A command ID of global ID format buffer has been found in the format pool and has a different file number than the file supplied by the caller.; - The file number was changed in subsequent Adabas calls with the same normal or global command ID, independent of the test option. |
Action |
Check the usage of the command IDs. |

Error during Open processing. DB/Subcode .../.... |
Explanation |
An error occurred during the processing of a command such as OP or N1. The default reason for this response code is that files are not available at open time. Other reasons are indicated by a subcode: 1 A specified file is locked against the requested use. 2 A specified file is currently in conflicting use. 4 The file is locked or in exclusive control by another user. 8 The user ID provided in the OP command is already assigned to another user. 11 A non-privileged user issued an open (OP) command to a nucleus that is in UTIONLY (utilities only) status. 17 The data of a specified file is not accessible. This can happen if a utility aborts or an autorestart fails. Further subcodes are described in the Adabas documentation. |
