Use the DISPLAY SMS,CICSVR,RCDS command to display the status of
the RCDSs allocated to the CICS® VR server address space.
You can use this command to determine if any maintenance is required on
the RCDSs. The figure below shows an example of the output returned when
the DISPLAY SMS,CICSVR,RCDS command is issued and all three RCDSs are properly
allocated and in use by CICS VR:

During some error conditions, CICS VR automatically attempts to deallocate
the RCDS. For example, if an RCDS becomes full, CICS VR automatically attempts to deallocate
the full RCDS from the CICS VR server address space. Therefore, the status
of the full RCDS might be shown as "OUT OF SET" after CICS VR has deallocated the full RCDS.
However, CICS VR
writes appropriate messages to the operator console when an RCDS error is
encountered and when it is automatically deallocated. The status of each
RCDS can be one of the following:
- IN USE
- An RCDS is currently allocated to the listed ddname and is accessible
by the CICS VR
server address space. No further action is required.
- OUT OF SET
- The RCDS of the listed ddname is currently deallocated from the CICS VR server
address space. An RCDS can be deallocated from CICS VR by issuing the VARY operator command
or automatically by CICS VR when it becomes full, unusable, or broken.
An RCDS must be recreated and reallocated to the listed ddname as soon as
possible.
- INACCESSIBLE
- The RCDS of the listed ddname is allocated to CICS VR, but CICS VR cannot access it to read and write
information. Either make the RCDS accessible to CICS VR, or deallocte it, then recreate
and reallocate a new RCDS to the same ddname.
- BROKEN
- The RCDS for the listed ddname is corrupted. Deallocate the RCDS from CICS VR,
then recreate and redefine a new RCDS to the same ddname. CICS VR automatically
attempts to deallocate a broken RCDS.
- FULL
- The RCDS for the listed ddname has reached its capacity and no more information
can be written to it. It must be deallocated from CICS VR, then recreated with a larger capacity
and reallocated to the same ddname. CICS VR automatically attempts to deallocte
a full RCDS.
- INDELIBLE
- The RCDS for the listed ddname could not be removed from CICS VR. It
must be manually deallocted from CICS VR, then recreated and reallocated
to the same ddname.
- UNKNOWN
- An unresolveable error has occurred while attempting to access the RCDS
for the listed ddname. It must be deallocated from CICS VR, then recreated and reallocated
to the same ddname.
