This is the first time that this has happened and I am confused. What would make a couple dataset "go bad"? We have a two system, basic sysplex. This weekend, we IPL'ed both systems. Our procedure is to take down SY1 first, and reIPL it. When SY1 is up, then shutdown SY2 and reIPL. On the IPL of SY1, we got messages:
IXC268I THE COUPLE DATA SETS SPECIFIED IN COUPLE11 ARE IN AN INCONSISTEN T STATE IXC275I COUPLE DATA SETS SPECIFIED IN COUPLE11 ARE 168 PRIMARY: SYS1.LIH1.XCFCDS01 ON VOLSER LIHTS4 ALTERNATE: SYS1.LIH1.XCFCDS02 ON VOLSER LIHTS6 IXC273I XCF ATTEMPTING TO RESOLVE THE COUPLE DATA SETS IXC275I RESOLVED COUPLE DATA SETS ARE 170 PRIMARY: SYS1.LIH1.XCFCDS01 ON VOLSER LIHTS4 ALTERNATE: NONE USED I did a SETXCF to make SYS1.LIH1.XCFCDS02 the alternate.
