Hello Mike, thanks for your response. I'll tell my DB2 folks about your assessment.
Christian -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Wood Sent: Friday, February 24, 2006 3:46 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: DFSMSrmm and DB2 Christian, ... maybe I am biased, but this is a DB2 problem. The data set sequence number in a catalog entry should match the value you would have specified in JCL to create the data set. So, if I create data set sequence number 3 on first volume, and the data set spans to a next volume both volumes in the catalog should have FSEQN of 3. I believe that DB2 catalogs the data sets with 3 on the first volume and 1 on the next. DB2 is aware of this problem but reluctant to make a change after it appears to have been working ok for years. To get this problem fixed, please raise a PMR and request an APAR against DB2. thanks, Mike Wood RMM Development On Fri, 24 Feb 2006 10:19:27 +0100, Mika, Christian SZ/HZA-ITDS1 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >Hello, > >we have a problem with interaction between RMM and DB2 and i wonder if >anybody has seen the same phenomenon before: > >Our DB2 Master Adress Space writes his own Archlogs to Tape >(PGM=DSNYASCP). >If these were multi-volume datasets, they are not correctly updated in >RMM Catalog. >On the first volume the DSN has catalog status=YES, on the second volume >the DSN has catalog status=unknown.
