Two types of error messages are generated by the utility programs. The first type consists of conditional errors associated with accessing the desired database. For all utility programs except DBUTIL, errors generating these messages can be corrected without terminating the run if you are in session mode. DBUTIL errors of this type may terminate the program. After printing the error message, the DBUTIL program reprompts with two greater than symbols (>>). Other utilities reprompt with the message"WHICH DATABASE?", allowing you to reenter the database reference. If you wish to terminate the utility program at this point, you may type a carriage return with or without leading blanks. If you are in job mode, conditional errors always cause program termination. Conditional error messages and their meanings are described in the section entitled "Utility Program Conditional Messages".

Unconditional errors occur in utility programs after successful execution has already begun. These errors usually cause program termination. The accompanying messages and their meanings are described in the section entitled "Utility Program Unconditional Messages."

MESSAGE

WARNING: THE LANGUAGE OF THE DATA BASE IS DIFFERENT FROM THE LANGUAGE FOUND ON THE DBLOAD MEDIA. CONTINUE DBLOAD OPERATION / (Y/N):

CAUSE

The user has changed language of database between DBUNLOAD and DBLOAD. DBLOAD wants user to be aware of potential differences in sorted chains of the collating sequence of the two languages. (The language of database on disk and database on tape are different). In session mode you are asked if you want to continue operation. In job mode, DBLOAD will terminate execution.

ACTION

After looking at the information, DBLOAD returns with the result on the sorted chains in the database. Continue the operation by answering Y (yes).

MESSAGE

WARNING: THE NUMBER OF DATA SETS DEFINED IN THE SCHEMA IS LESS THAN (OR GREATER THAN) THE NUMBER OF DATA SETS FOUND ON THE DBLOAD MEDIA.

CAUSE

You have added or deleted data sets from the database between a DBUNLOAD and a DBLOAD. DBLOAD will continue with the load, but data may be lost or put into the wrong sets due to an invalid set change.

ACTION

Stop the DBLOAD, correct the schema, and perform DBLOAD again. Or, if you are sure the database is not corrupt, allow DBLOAD to continue.

Utility Program Unconditional Messages

MESSAGE

AUTOMATIC MASTER IS FULL ON PATH #n

MESSAGE

***BAD DATA BASE***

CAUSE

This message is issued by DBSTORE, DBRESTOR, and DBUNLOAD. It means the database is flagged "bad" because of a known structural error due to an abnormal termination or to a system crash during DBLOAD or some other "output deferred" operation. The current operation (DBSTORE, DBRESTOR, DBUNLOAD) continues to function normally. DBLOAD additionally prints the message "SERIAL UNLOAD FOLLOWS" and automatically operates in serial mode. The database on disk retains its "bad" flag and cannot be accessed through DBOPEN.

ACTION

The database is not usable in its current state. Purge it and restore a backup copy, or erase it and then load a tape written by DBUNLOAD or another external copy of the data.
