CTC DEVICE VERIFICATION DISABLED DUE TO UNRECOVERABLE ABENDS

Reason:

CA MIM experienced unrecoverable abends while verifying the status of CTC devices. It stops verifying device status at this time, but it should have no effect on the virtual control file operation.

When an I/O error occurs on a CTC device, CA MIM marks the device in error and avoids using the device until the error is reset. Activating the SETOPTION CTCVERIFY command allows CA MIM to automatically detect when the device is usable again and clears the error.

Action:

If the SETOPTION CTCVERIFY is not activated (CTCVERIFY=NO), then you must issue a CTC RESET command to reset the error condition when the device becomes usable.
