M204.0617 Checkpoint required to update file fileName
You are attempting to open a file with update privileges. The file manager has specified that checkpoint logging is required to update this file and checkpoint logging is not in effect for this run. A file is opened for update either by opening a public or semi-public file with default privileges to permit updating, or by opening a private or semi-public file and specifying a password with update privileges.
Checkpoint logging is required when the X'40' bit of the FRCVOPT parameter is turned on.
Response: Consult with your file manager and your system manager. The system manager should turn on checkpoint logging for the run (RCVOPT=1), or the file manager should turn off the bit requiring checkpoint logging.
