Error description
RLS file shows that RECOVERY REQUIRED=NO. However CICS shows that if the file is OPEN ENABLED for readonly then the SPI returns a value or RECOVERYSTATUS based on the RDO definition instead of what is defined on the VSAM ICF Catalog. CICS should use the VSAM ICF Catalog for all inquiries of a RLS dataset. Additional Symptom(s) Search Keyword(s):KIXREVRHC

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: An INQUIRE FILE command specifying * * RECOVSTATUS and/or FWDRECSTATUS may not * * return the correct values for a read * * only RLS file. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The CICS Recovery and Restart Guide states that an RLS file's recovery options are taken from the ICF catalog. Any recovery options specified in the CICS file resource definitions will be ignored. If an INQUIRE FILE command specifying RECOVSTATUS and/or FWDRECSTATUS is issued against an RLS file that is read only, the CICS file resource definition recovery options are returned rather than those from the ICF catalog.
