2420

UNEXPECTED END OF FILE, OR NO CONTROL RECORD FOUND FOR DSN=(dddddd) ON VOL=SER=(vvvvvv) BYPASSING DATASET.

Reason:

Merge processing was reading to the end of a data set being copied to an output volume, and the end of file was reached on the tape data set. A record-indicating end of data set follows every user data set archived to tape. This record was not found. The tape is in error.

Action:

When message 2420 is issued, use the archive copy volume to recover the data set from the archives.
