Better error message when using incorrect dataset for recover tocopy

A PGR table with 5 partition have a combination of full Image copier and partition image copies.

executing

RECOVER TABLESPACE userid.table DSNUM ALL TOCOPY hlq.DB2.IC.userid.table.PART4

    Dear Christer,

    The explanation for message DSNU519I documents the exact scenario that is described. https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/db2-for-zos/13.0.0?topic=messages-dsnu519i

    DSNU519I csect-name TOCOPY DATA SET NOT FOUND
    Explanation
    The data set specified with the keywords TOCOPY, TOVOLUME, or TOSEQNO cannot be found in the SYSCOPY table for the object to be recovered.

    This may be caused by a mismatch in granularities. If the RECOVER specifies a particular DSNUM, the data set specified with the TOCOPY keyword may be for an image copy of this DSNUM or of the entire table space or index space. However, if the RECOVER is for the entire table space or index space, the specified data set must be for an image copy of the entire table space or index space.

    We hope this resolves your concern.

    Sincerely,

    The Db2 Utilities Team
