Hello, We have a KSDS file being read randomly during daily batch process. But the read fails with file-status 23 (record not found). On analysing the abend, the record with the read-key is always found in the file. This happens on a random basis - once or twice a month.
The job gets through successfully if we resubmit the job (after the abend:w/o making any changes!) or introduce another step to take a backup of the file and then use it(the backup file) in the program. Initially I thought that the file was being updated by some other program running concurrently. I checked the abended job's execution time and found that no other program running parallely was even using this file. I have seemingly exhausted any possibility I could think of. Could it be related to the record being present in secondary extents? I am getting wilder :) Does someone has an idea here?
