IEC153I C13-10 selecting forward recovery from CICS VR ISPF dialog

Message IEC153I C13-10 can occur if you allocate the same DWWMSGA and DWWMSGB datasets as are being used by the CICSVR server address space. The DWWMSG datasets allocated to the TSO user must be not be the same as those allocated to the CICSVR server.

See the following on allocating the DWWMSGx datasets in topic Creating the DWWMSGA, DWWMSGB, DWWDMSG, and DWWDUMP data sets of the CICS VR documentation:

Attention: The data sets created and allocated to the DWWMSG, DWWDMSG, and DWWDUMP ddnames for the CICS VR server address space must be separate from the ones used by the CICS VR panel interface and jobs that start CICS VR utilities. IBM® recommends that you:

• Create and allocate separate data sets to the DWWMSG, DWWDMSG, and DWWDUMP ddnames used by the CICS VR panel interface, the allocations can be made in the CLIST used to display the CICS VR panel interface. Also, there is no specified naming convention for the data sets allocated to the panel interface.

• Specify SYSOUT= for the DWWMSG, DWWDMSG, and DWWDUMP data set allocations specified in batch jobs that run CICS VR utilities.*

Sharing the message, trace, and dump data sets between the CICS VR server address space, CICS VR panel interface, and batch jobs could cause data to be overwritten.
