Re: Failed GO SAVE 21

My last two attempts at a GO SAVE 21 failed. Second tape was requested,
but save would end. The portion of the save was acting on IFS, thus the
multiple SAV commands. Had idea that maybe system reply list was
involved. Nope. I perform GO SAVE with the same user profile. I also
looked at the system reply list entries and only the first four had either
C or D. Some issue there. the message ids for those messages are:
CPA0700, RPG0000, CBE0000 and PLI0000. Message CPA0700 is not in QCPFMSG.
Maybe it was an an earlier release? In any event, I can't see why the tape
change does not work. It is very discouraging.

John,

I never had issues with multiple tapes during a normal save, but I do
remember the 2nd tape handling was a bit different for a system save, GO
SAVE 21.

Today, I ran multiple SAV commands. Idea was to see if overflowing a tape
caused issues that were not detected. So, after three SAVs complated and
partway into the fourth, a tape change request was issued' I changed the
tape and entered G to continue. At the conclusion of that SAV, I ran an
additional SAV. No errors in the jobog with the exception of reporting
that 17 files were not copied. All had locks. Nothing beyond the notice
of 17 objects not saved in the joblog. Nothing at all in any of the logs
accessed by SST. Everything worked like it is supposed to work.

Wednesday, I try a full save again. At that point, if it errors off, I
will report whatever is available.

Looking around within SST, I never saw anything specific to tape.
Abxolutely no guarantee that I am looking in the right places with
SST.

Anyway, if anybody has other ideas, I would appreciate suggestions.

Perhaps for the [duration of the] two failing saves, post the
joblogs [, history, LIC Logs, and PALs] somewhere that they can be

(re)viewed.
