The issued command required
logging functions to be performed,
but the Log Area was not accessed due to a previous Log Area or Recovery File error, perhaps an I/O error.

Carefully check the Multi-User Facility log to determine the nature of the previous error so its reoccurrence can be prevented. To reactivate logging, first stop the Multi-User Facility by using the EOJ, EOJKEEP, or EOJFREE option of the DBUTLTY COMM function or the console command (EOJKEEP and EOJFREE are for z/OS only). Then execute DBMUFPR to restart the Multi-User Facility with logging.
