Depending upon what you coded in your JCL, the problem is either (1) a mis-keyed volume serial if you keyed in the entire set of them, or (2) a system problem that needs your site support group to look at and correct. If you keyed in the volume serials for the tape data set, you probably got one wrong -- if not, your site support group needs to look at the issue and correct it. If you are relying on the catalog, your site support group needs to know about the issue so they can identify what caused the problem and correct it.
