KBLS201-E

invalid key data for sort.
xx...x yy...y zz

The key data format of a numeric item is invalid.
xx...x indicates the name of the file that contains an error, yy...y indicates an error record number, and zz indicates the number of the key that contains an error.

S: Closes all open files, cancels processing, and generates a debugging information file (sortdmp and sortrdmp) under /usr/tmp, /tmp or the current directory.

O: Check whether the key option is correct. If it is incorrect, correct it, and then re-execute the command. Alternatively, correct the format of the key, and re-execute the command.

---

KBLS202-E

cannot obtain memory of this size.

invalid key item attribute specification.

An invalid key item attribute is specified.

KBLS205-E

invalid starting byte position of key.

The position of the start byte of a key is invalid. For example, a smaller value than the minimum record length of an input file is specified.

S: Closes all open files, and cancels processing. If the I/O file is a variable-length file, generates a debugging information file (sortdmp) under /usr/tmp or /tmp.

O: Correct the position of the start byte of the key, and re-execute the command.

---

KBLS206-E

invalid byte length for key.

The key byte length is invalid. For example, a larger value than a record length was specified.

S: Closes all open files, and cancels processing. If the I/O file is a variable-length file, generates a debugging information file (sortdmp) under /usr/tmp or /tmp.

O: Correct the key byte length, and re-execute the command.

---

KBLS207-E

sum of key position and length is greater than record length.

The length of the key position plus the key length exceeds the minimum record length of an input file.

S: Closes all open files, and cancels processing. If the I/O file is a variable-length file, generates a debugging information file (sortdmp) under /usr/tmp or /tmp.

O: Correct the position of the start byte of the key and the key byte length, and re-execute the command.

---

KBLS208-E

total key length exceeds 4096 bytes.

Total key length exceeds 4096 bytes.

S: Closes all open files, cancels processing, and generates a debugging information file (sortdmp) under /usr/tmp or /tmp.

O: Correct the number of keys and the byte length, and re-execute the command.

---

KBLS209-E

I/O error on input file.
xx...x yy...y

An I/O error occurred in the input file.
xx...x indicates the name of the file that contains an error. yy...y indicates an error record number.

S: Closes all open files, cancels processing, and generates a debugging information file (sortdmp) under /usr/tmp or /tmp.

O: Correct the error, and re-execute the command.

---

KBLS210-E

I/O error on temporary file.

An I/O error occurred in the temporary file.

S: Closes all open files, cancels processing, and generates a debugging information file (sortdmp) under /usr/tmp or /tmp.

O: Correct the error, and re-execute the command.

---

KBLS211-E

I/O error on output file.
xx...x

An I/O error occurred in the output file.
xx...x indicates the name of the file that contains an error.

S: Closes all open files, cancels processing, and generates a debugging information file (sortdmp) under /usr/tmp or /tmp.

O: Correct the error, and re-execute the command.

---

KBLS212-E

cannot input because data is shorter than record length.

When an input file is a standard input file, input data specified is shorter than the record length.

S: Closes all open files, cancels processing, and generates a debugging information file (sortdmp) under /usr/tmp or /tmp.

O: Make the length of the input data an integer multiple of the record length, and re-execute the command.

---

KBLS213-E

invalid organized file or corrupted file.
xx...x

The input file organization and the specified file organization (-S, -V, -R, -W, -I, -X, or -A) do not match. Alternatively, the record length area of an input file is destroyed.
xx...x indicates the name of the file that contains an error.

S: Closes all open files, cancels processing, and generates a debugging information file (sortdmp) under /usr/tmp or /tmp.

O: Correct the input file organization and re-execute the command. If the error persists, re-create an input file and re-execute the command.

---

KBLS214-E

I/O error on debugging information file.

An I/O error occurred in the debugging information file.

O: Contact maintenance personnel.

---

KBLS215-E

old version librsort.sl was executed.

The SORT program cannot be executed, because its version is old.
If the COBOL85 Sort/Merge function is being used, the SORT version is probably older than the SORT version prerequisite to COBOL85.

S: Cancels processing and generates a debugging information file (sortdmp) in /usr/tmp or /tmp.

O: Install the correct version of the SORT program and re-execute the command.

---

KBLS216-E

file name is specified in directory of temporary file.

In the -T or -T2 option, a file name was specified as a directory for allocating a temporary file.

S: Cancels processing and generates a debugging information file (sortdmp) under /usr/tmp or /tmp.

O: Correct the directory name, and re-execute the command.

---

KBLS217-E

cannot open input file: already in use.

The input file cannot be opened because another process is using it. For example, the file may be opened by the SORT program in the locked mode in another process.

S: Closes all open files, cancels processing, and generates a debugging information file (sortdmp) under /usr/tmp or /tmp.

O: Wait for the other process to terminate, and re-execute the command.

---

KBLS218-E

cannot open output file: already in use.

The output file cannot be opened because another process is using it. For example, the file may be opened by the SORT program in the locked mode in another process.

S: Closes all open files, cancels processing, and generates a debugging information file (sortdmp) under /usr/tmp or /tmp.

O: Wait for the other process to terminate, and re-execute the command. Alternatively, rename the output file, and re-execute the command.

---

KBLS219-E

output file already exists.

When existing files were prevented from being overwritten by using the -i sort or merge option, the file name that already exists was specified as an output file name.

S: Cancels processing.

O: Specify an output file name that does not exist, and re-execute the command.

---

KBLS300-E

invalid programming logic.
xxxx

The program error indicated by the error code xxxx occurred.

S: Closes all open files, cancels processing, generates a debugging information file (sortdmp) under /usr/tmp or /tmp, and generates a core dump (core) under the current directory.

O: Contact maintenance personnel to report the error code.
