168 - Unsupported device type. The data set is not available for the type of processing specified, or an attempt was made to open a reusable data set with the reset option while another user had the data set open.

Its OPENed somehwere, thats why you are getting this error.
Find out who else is using this dataset, get it closed, then do your operations, you won't get 168 then. |
