Restarting a Failed Runlist Operation

In the event of a failure, an error message is issued and the Runlist is terminated. The remaining steps in the Runlist command file are not executed. You must determine the cause of the failure and correct it. The error message issued from Runlist is also written to the detail report file. This message should provide enough information to determine the cause of the failure. In some cases, the IMSMTO.LOG file will provide additional information.

The activity log indicates all of the Runlist steps which were successful and the step which failed. Use this to identify the step to restart from. Compare the functions listed in the log to the original Runlist file and identify which step failed.

Use a text editor to modify the Runlist file and remove or comment out all the steps which completed successfully. A step is commented out by placing an asterisk (*) in column 1 of that line.

Rerun Runlist with the modified Runlist command file.
