Error codes in VSAM are the VSAM file status codes.
Following are some VSAM file status codes I know,

File Status Cause

00 Operation completed successfully
02 Duplicate Key was found
04 Invalid fixed length record
05 The file was created when opened -
Successful Completion
07 CLOSE with REEL or NO REWIND executed for
non tape dataset.
10 End of File encountered
14 Attempted to READ a relative record
outside file boundary
21 Invalid Key - Sequence error
22 Invalid Key - Duplicate Key found
23 Invalid key - No record found
24 Invalid Key - key outside boundary of file.
30 Permanent I/O Error
34 Permanent I/O Error - Record outside file
boundary
35 OPEN, but file not found
37 OPEN with wrong mode
38 Tried to OPEN a LOCKed file
39 OPEN failed, conflicting file attributes
41 Tried to OPEN a file that is already open
42 Tried to CLOSE a file that is not OPEN
43 Tried to REWRITE without READing a record
first
44 Tried to REWRITE a record of a different
length
46 Tried to READ beyond End-of-file
47 Tried to READ from a file that was not
opened I-O or INPUT
48 Tried to WRITE to a file that was not

Our issue is there seems to be a disconnect, or no link, between our SELECT statement and our SD. We had SELECT SORT-FILE and SELECT SORT-FILE ASSIGN TO SORTWRK. ASSIGN TO SORTWRK1 SORTWRK2 SORTWRK3 SORTWRK4. with SD SORT_FILE RECORD CONTAINS 7833 CHARACTERS. In either case, at run time, the system ignored our SORTWRK# DD statements and allocated 16 sort works with the SORTWK## naming convention. Any ideas why the system does not recognize the connection? We do not even need the SORTWRK DD statements. Thanks
