VMBSCAN Utility Messages

0001R

SPECIFY THE REPORT DETAIL LEVEL. TYPE F FOR FILE LEVEL OR D FOR DOMAIN LEVEL:

Reason:

VMBSCAN asks for the level of detail to appear in the output report. VMBSCAN waits for you to respond.

Action:

To list files and their associated minidisks, file spaces, and directories backed up on the tape, enter F. To show only the minidisks and file spaces backed up on the tape, enter D.

0002S

CP REWIND FAILED WITH RC = retcode.

Reason:

The VMBSCAN utility encountered the specified error when rewinding a tape.

Action:

To determine the problem. Correct the problem and run VMBSCAN again, see the IBM documentation for the CP REWIND command.

0003I

MOUNT TAPE [volser] AT 181. PRESS ENTER WHEN THE TAPE IS READY.

Reason:

VMBSCAN asks that a tape be mounted on the device defined at virtual address 181. When scanning a multi-volume series, mount requests for the second and subsequent volumes in the series will specify the volser. VMBSCAN issues message 0004I and waits for you to respond.

Action:

Attach a tape drive at virtual address 181 and mount the tape. To indicate to VMBSCAN that the tape is ready, press ENTER. If you cannot locate the correct tape volume and want to end VMBSCAN processing at this point, respond to message 0004I by entering END. Reports for tapes scanned before this point will remain on your minidisk or directory accessed at filemode A.

0004I

TYPE END TO END VMBSCAN.

Reason:

This message follows message 0003I. VMBSCAN waits for you to respond.

Action:

To end VMBSCAN processing at this point, enter END. See message 0003I for more information.

0005I

CA VM:BACKUP (TM) RELEASE release genlevel SPservicepack SCAN TAPE UTILITY.

Reason:

VMBSCAN issues this message during initialization. The current CA VM:Backup release, genlevel, and service pack is identified and the utility begins initialization.

Action:

None.

0006I

COPYRIGHT year, CA, Inc.

Reason:

VMBSCAN issues this message during initialization. The currently running release was issued in year year. Initialization continues.

Action:

None.

0018I

CANCELLATION RECORD FOUND FOR userid vaddr; THIS IS NOT THE VALID BACKUP COPY OF THIS MINIDISK.

Reason:

When you use the Reduce Tape Remounts feature, if CA VM:Backup encounters an error while backing up a minidisk, it stops backing up the minidisk. Under some circumstances CA VM:Backup leaves a partial backup of a minidisk on the tape. To indicate that this backup is not a valid backup of the minidisk, CA VM:Backup writes a cancellation record immediately following the partial backup. VMBSCAN issues message 0018I when it detects a cancellation record; this is not a problem. VMBSCAN processing continues.

Action:

None.

0022I

VMBSCAN IS PROCESSING YOUR REQUEST.

Reason:

VMBSCAN issues this message periodically as it processes your request.

Action:

None.

0023I

SCANNING BEGINS.

Reason:

VMBSCAN has begun to scan the tape for data. Processing continues.

Action:

None.

0024S

TAPE IS NOT A VALID VM:BACKUP TAPE.

Reason:

The tape to be scanned was not created by CA VM:Backup. It contains either an invalid UHL1 record or an unrecognized record. The tape may have been reinitialized. VMBSCAN processing ends.

Action:

Start VMBSCAN again. Mount a valid CA VM:Backup tape when prompted for the tape to scan. The CA VM:Backup system administrator can contact Technical Support.

0025S

TAPE HAS BEEN REINITIALIZED; HDR1 IS ALL ZEROS.

Reason:

The tape contains only the VOL1 and HDR1 header labels. This indicates that the tape has been reinitialized. VMBSCAN processing ends.

Action:

When a tape is reinitialized, you cannot use the VMBSCAN utility to list the contents of the tape. You cannot recover the CA VM:Backup data on the tape. Verify that you have selected the correct tape. Start the VMBSCAN utility again using a tape that has not been reinitialized.

0026S

ERROR READING TAPE LABEL RECORD; READLREC RC = retcode.

Reason:

The VMBSCAN utility uses the READLREC routine to read data on the tape. The READLREC routine encountered an error while attempting to read a header or trailer record on the tape.

Action:

The CA VM:Backup system administrator must contact Technical Support.

0028I

PERMANENT I/O ERROR READING TAPE RECORD. ATTEMPTING TO CONTINUE; ERROR MAY CAUSE MISSING DATA.

Reason:

A permanent I/O error occurred while reading a tape record. This can be caused by media or hardware failure. Any data contained in the failed record cannot be read by the VMBSCAN utility. Processing continues.

Action:

If a copy of the failed tape exists, use the copy instead. If no copy exists, clean the tape drive or use another tape drive. If the problem persists, perform a service check on the tape drive subsystem. Check the output reports carefully to determine which files or minidisks may be affected by the I/O error.

0029S

ERROR READING TAPE RECORDS; READLREC RC = retcode.

Reason:

The VMBSCAN utility uses the READLREC routine to read data on the tape. The READLREC routine encountered an error while attempting to read tape records on the tape.

Action:

The CA VM:Backup system administrator must contact Technical Support.

0034I

0059I

YOUR OUTPUT IS IN FILE filename REPORT.

Reason:

VMBSCAN has written information about the data contained on the tape to the indicated file on your minidisk or directory accessed at filemode A. If tapes remain to be processed in a multivolume series, VMBRITS asks you to mount the next tape in the series with message 0003I. If all tapes have been processed, VMBSCAN ends.

Action:

None, unless message 0003I is issued. If it is, respond appropriately.
