Barry, The STORAGE GROUP was backed up via HSM, what I didn't say correctly that the volume was not backed up (full dump). When I am able to do a browse of the dsn, all the members are displayed correctly, however when I browse each member I get the following : I/O error
When I press F1 for more info I get the following: An I/O error was encountered reading the first record requested. The DCB of the PDS is as follows, however I cannot be sure if it is correct since this PDS was inherited from a client Organization . . . : PO Record format . . . : FBA Record length . . . : 133 Block size . . . . : 133 1st extent cylinders: 5 Secondary cylinders : 2 Data set name type : PDS From: "Schwarz, Barry A" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, July 26, 2011 3:57:31 PM Subject: Re: CORRUPT PDS - I/O ERROR If the storage group is not backed up, how did HSM ever back up a copy for you to recover from? Was there a copy of the dataset on disk when you recovered it from HSM? What was the command you used to perform the recovery? When you browse the PDS, does the member list display correctly? What are the DCB attributes of the PDS? Do they match what you think they should be? What is the exact error message? > -----Original Message----- > From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On > Behalf Of esmie moo > Sent: Tuesday, July 26, 2011 10:03 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: CORRUPT PDS - I/O ERROR > > Good Morning Gentle Readers, > > When I try to browse a member of my pds I get a I/O error.
