Some STORE, RESTORE and VSTORE errors cause the program not
to store, restore, or verify a particular file. Others cause the
program to stop running. When STORE, RESTORE or VSTORE
cannot transfer files that you named in your command, it lists the names
of those files on your terminal as part of its standard progress
listing.
When STORE or VSTORE aborts because of an error, you see
specific error messages followed by a general error message
(which is the same for both commands):
STORE ABORTED BECAUSE OF ERROR
|
When RESTORE aborts because of an error, you see
specific error messages followed by a general error message:
RESTORE ABORTED BECAUSE OF ERROR (CIERR 1091)
|
You can use the STOREJCW job control word (JCW) to determine the
cause of an error and a proper recovery procedure. Each time you issue
a STORE or RESTORE command, the system updates the value
assigned to STOREJCW.
When STOREJCW is equal to 0, the command executed successfully.
STOREJCW values greater than 0 alert you to the cause of an error.

 |  |
 |
 | NOTE:
Issuing the VSTORE command also results in the system updating the
value assigned to STOREJCW. |

Viewing the Value of STOREJCW |
 |
To view the value assigned to STOREJCW, use the following
SHOWVAR command:
The system reports the current value. For example:
Determining the Cause of an Error |
 |
The value of STOREJCW after you issue a STORE, RESTORE, or VSTORE command tells you the cause of any errors in storing, restoring, or verifying the files you named. To determine the cause of an error:
Table A-1 STOREJCW Values
Value | Cause | Recovery Procedure |
---|
0 | No errors. | None. |
1 | Syntax error. | Correct and reenter command. |
2 | Error in opening system resource allocation. | Purge some files or
perform disk space recovery.
|
3 | Error in opening an indirect file. | Does the indirect file you named
exist? Do you have adequate access to it? Is it in use? Is the
redirect file an EDIT file?
|
4 | Error in opening the file. | Is the FILE command describing the
correct device? Is the media on the device you named? Unload and
reload the media. If you are restoring or verifying files, check
whether or not you have adequate access to them.
|
5 | Error scanning the files. | Make sure the file names are
syntactically correct and correctly spelled.
|
6 | Error in actually storing, restoring, or verifying files. | Enter the
command again. After a second failure, contact your system manager.
|
7 | A file you attempted to store does not exist on disk, or a file you
attempted to restore or verify does not exist in the STORE files, or
the system could not find files that matched the pattern you specified
(for example, FEB@). | Did you name the files correctly in the STORE, RESTORE, or
VSTORE command? Do the files you want to store, restore, or verify
exist?
|
8 | A file that you tried to store, restore, or verify was in use, or
unable to quiesce a certain TurboIMAGE database. See the $STDLIST for
further information.
| Wait until the file is no longer in use. Enter the command again. STORE
may have timed out trying to quiesce an open transaction.
|
9 | Media Manager Service error encountered. | Check the STORE
listing for the media manager error message. Look up the message in
Appendix A of the Magneto-Optical Media Manager User's Guide (36398-90001) and follow the suggested action.
