Error, Warning, and Status Messages
140 Message COMPARE OR VERIFY OPTION: OPERATION FAILS;
DIFFERENT FIXED RECSIZES
Cause The "compare" or "verify" operation was not attempted
because the record sizes of the tofile and fromfile are not
identical.
Action In a compare operation, none. The compare operation
revealed that the fixed record sizes of the two files are not
identical. In a verify operation, change the record size of
the tofile (using the MPE PURGE and BUILD commands) so
that it is the same as that of the fromfile and then retry
the operation.
141 ** Message COMPARE BEGINS
Cause The comparison phase of a "verify" operation has begun.
Action None.
143 * Message WARNING: FROMFILE IS EMPTY
Cause The fromfile contained no data. Nothing was copied or
compared.
Action None. You may inadvertently have specified the wrong file
as the fromfile.
144 Message NEW OPTION: FILE ALREADY EXISTS
Cause The tofile named for the "new file" function already exists
in the specified (or implied) group and account.
Action Change the name of the tofile and try the operation again.
145 Message BACKSPACE ERROR IN FROMFILE
Cause An error occurred while spacing backward to the
beginning of the fromfile or a subset within it.
Action Check the syntax of your command and retry the
operation.
146 Message CANNOT OPEN TEMPORARY LABEL FILE
Cause This may indicate a lack of space in your account.
Action Allocate more space in the account.
