Error Message

OSEQ

Error Details

A job or started task began to execute before all its predecessors have completed. This can occur only if the job was not submitted by IBM Z Workload Scheduler and if either HOLDJOB(NO) or HOLDJOB(USER) is specified in the EWTROPTS statement. For fault-tolerant agents, the OSEQ code can indicate that a dependency on another operation or a special resource was added after the job started, but before the event reached the controller.
