M204.0116  Bad input to RESTORE: reason

Where reason can be:

  • WRONG FILE NAME
  • SEQ NUMBER ON PAGE IS WRONG
  • PAGE NUMBER TOO LOW
  • PAGE NUMBER OUT OF RANGE

The backup file is inconsistent. This is often the result of multi-volume backup files being incorrectly defined in the JCL, for example: reel 2 mounted before reel 1, or reel 1 followed by an incorrect reel 2. Use of third-party backup packages may also cause this message to be issued.

File manager response: The JCL for the FROM file should be examined and compared with the TO file JCL of the DUMP job.
