IGD049I
ACTIVATE FAILED - {SCDS|ACDS} dsname IS AN INVALID CONFIGURATION
Explanation
An ACTIVATE request attempted to use the storage management subsystem (SMS)
data set name, which is either:
source control data set (SCDS)
active control data set (ACDS)
If the data set is SCDS, the data set has an incorrect status because the
configuration was not validated when it was defined or modified through ISMF.
If the data set is ACDS, the data set is one of the following:
In error
Empty
Does not exist
In the message text:
dsname
The data set name.
System action
The system ignores the request.
Operator response
Notify the system programmer.
System programmer response
If the data set is a SCDS, validate the data set using ISMF. Reinitiate the
ACTIVATE request. If the data set is an ACDS, correct the data set. Reinitiate
the ACTIVATE request.
