Area lock for no reason?

[ca.portal.admin]

Hi folks.

We are experiencing an error that I have not seen before.

We have a batch job that abends with an 0318 error. Obviously we have a
problem after a re-org was done. We need to solve this. What is
strange is after an abend, if applications tries to run the job again,
they get an 0966 on an area. The original job was run under CV. If we
look online using dcmt d area or lockmon, we don't see a lock set on the
area. But if we run an unlock we get a rc = 0. What is going on?
Anyone ran into this? I have done a search on support connect but
having trouble getting a granular enough query to reduce the number of
answers returning.

As part of upgrading IDMS to R16, we will have to upgrade ASG's VDB
(Virtual DataBase) from 5.0.5 to 5.1.2. Does anyone know if we can use
our existing global definition file (VSAM), or if we have to create a
new one?

"One thing I do here is run against our SMF record type 15 which shows every
job that updates a file. Within a big shop you don't also get told what was
really ran so this has 'saved the day' many times. Just a thought...

I had a strange one similar this past weekend. After doing a restructure
while CV was down, after coming back up again the primary default dictionary
was in a status N/av. I unlocked it and got a ret code 0 also. Nothing else
was running when CV had started up and we have no local jobs accessing this
dictionary.It caused me to go off into some rabbit trails.
I ended up backing everything out. Now I have to do this again shortley.
