Resolving InDoubt units if you receive message BBOT0022W

Before you begin

This message indicates that the transaction outcome has been determined and communicated to the subordinate, but the subordinate resource has not yet been "forgotten." When this message is displayed, there has already been a heuristic outcome.

The subordinate will not let the UR move to the "in-forget" state until it is told to forget it. In other words, the subordinate will still be involved in a UR, so RRS will not mark the subordinate server as "restart anywhere."

See z/OS MVS Programming: Resource Recovery for more information on how to use the RRS panels and what administrative access (RACF access to the facility class, for example) is needed to resolve URs and remove interests.

Why and when to perform this task

Use RRS panels to perform the following steps to remove an expression of interest in this UR.

Steps for this task

  1. Select option 3, "Display/Update RRS Unit of Recovery information" on the main RRS panel.
  2. To view the details of this URID, enter the URID in the "URID Pattern" field on the query panel. Press "enter" to execute the query.
    The query results should display the UR. In the column labeled "s", enter "v" to display the details for this UR.
  3. Remove the OTS interest
    The "RRS Unit of Recovery Details" panel will open. Near the bottom of the panel will be a heading titled "Expressions of Interest" followed by one or more rows below it. These rows represent each individual expression of interest in this UR. Complete these steps to remove the OTS interest:
    1. Find the row that represents the "OTS" interest.
      his row will have an RM name in the form of "BSS00.xxx.yyy.IBM", where 'xxx' is the system to which the server was configured and 'yyy' is the specific server name.
    2. Type "r" in the column labeled "S" to indicate that you want to remove this interest.
    3. Press "enter" to execute the query.
  4. Press "enter" to confirm the removal of this interest.
    The "RRS Remove Interest Confirmation" panel will open. The RM name and UR identifier fields are pre-filled. Press "enter" to confirm the removal of this interest.

Results

You know you are done when RRS marks the subordinate server as "restart anywhere." Determine this by choosing option 1 under "Browse and RRS log stream" and then choosing suboption 4 under "RRS Resource Manager Data log."
