I have a VSAM file that is used in CICS. The region is down and we are trying to restore the file but it will not restore because it is flagged as open for update by multiple users. How do you correct this?
Normally one would use IDCAMS or TSO VERIFY command to reset the dataset's OPEN status - or any usage of the file that causes an OPEN should also do an auto-verify (with possible except of OPEN by a COBOL program with no status checking, which may cause the program to terminate with no CLOSE of the file, which again leaves file in an OPEN state).
