During a REDEFINE to AT-MOST-ONE or EXACTLY-ONE, a violation of the AT-MOST-ONE or EXACTLY-ONE Field-Level Constraint was discovered in the file. The error message indicates the field name and record number that contain more than one occurrence. All such violations within the file for the field to be redefined are reported during REDEFINE processing.
The REDEFINE fails, undoing any changes it might have made in the process of AT-MOST-ONE or EXACTLY-ONE verification.
File manager response: Using information from the above message and an understanding of the data and application this file represents, update the file to remove all but one occurrence of the field in the record(s) identified. Once the file is cleared of all pre-existing AT-MOST-ONE and EXACTLY-ONE violations, the REDEFINE of the field to AT-MOST-ONE or EXACTLY-ONE will complete successfully.
