Are you really sure a career in IT is something you want to pursue? The companies I've dealt with are typically looking for people who can solve problems, on their own, by doing the research needed to figure out what the computer is telling them, what that means in terms of the problem that needs to be resolved, and then resolve it. So far, you have demonstrated none of these skills.

What can you do?
1) Contact the contest moderators / sponsors and have them delete the unwanted data sets.
2) Look on the IBM web site at the IXCMIAPU utility and find how to code up a delete for your logstreams, code it, and execute it.
3) Use IDCAMS to delete the extra data sets (but you'll need to do research to find out the high level qualifier used before doing so).
4) Figure out if you can run your CICS region without bothering to redefine the logstreams.
5) Find a forum to whine on until somebody takes pity on you and gives you the solution so you won't have to learn anything.

Your choice.

You REALLY do not want to attempt to run your CICS region without LOGGER going -- that would be a LOT more trouble to go through than you would gain.

You have ashamed me, because I thought that I have some skills for solving problem on my own( Though, my excuse is that you are not entirely right, the last thing I wanted is to give me the exact solution so that I don't do anything myself. I just asked for possible range of solutions, but maybe used a wrong sentence for it. Well, since forum was down, I've already successfully deleted my log streams using IXCMIAPU and created new needed logstream entries (I have tried just updating their names, but found that LOGR policy format level wasn't high enough; also I tried creating new coupling data sets LOGR policy, but found that I don't have enough rights for modifying SYS1.PARMLIB COUPLExx member - just trying to justify myself:)).
Now I'm having new problem: when I try to start new CICS region using system command 'S ZCON455,START=INITIAL' I get "IEE132I START COMMAND DEVICE ALLOCATION ERROR". I tried investigating this problem but the system log isn't very informative for me:
S ZCON455,START=INITIAL
0281  $HASP100 ZCON455  ON STCINRDR
0290  IEF695I START ZCON455  WITH JOBNAME ZCON455  IS ASSIGNED TO USER STC
, GROUP SYSPROC
0090  $HASP373 ZCON455  STARTED
0090  IEF403I ZCON455 - STARTED - TIME=15.06.26
0290  -                                         --TIMINGS (MINS.)--
----PAGING COUNTS---
0290  -JOBNAME  STEPNAME PROCSTEP    RC   EXCP    CPU    SRB  CLOCK   SERV  PG

0290  -ZCON455  ZCON455  CICS     FLUSH      0    .00    .00    .00      0   0
0      0      0     0     1
0090  IEF453I ZCON455 - JOB FAILED - JCL ERROR - TIME=15.06.26
0290  -ZCON455  ENDED.  NAME-                     TOTAL CPU TIME=   .00  TOTAL
ELAPSED TIME=   .00
0290  -NOT_EXECUTED_STEP_TABLE BEGIN
0290  -JOBNAME  STEPNAME PROCSTEP STEPNO
0290  -ZCON455  ZCON455  CICS       1
0290  -NOT_EXECUTED_STEP_TABLE END
0090  $HASP395 ZCON455  ENDED
0090  IEE132I START COMMAND DEVICE ALLOCATION ERROR

My only guess is primitive: again there isn't enough space somewhere. Can you please at least say am I right, or point me in the right direction?

for this kind of problems
the best approach is

instead of using the start command

submit a job executing the procedure

//.... JOB ....
//  EXEC ZCON455,START=INITIAL


after that it should be easy to look at the output to read and understand the <error> messages

Thanks guys, you helped me a lot. And thanks Robert for shaming me and making me think by myself!

Hello,

One of our main goals is to help people learn. If this involves a bit of "shame", the learning is well worth that little price/discomfort ;)

Good to hear progress has happened.

Good luck :)

Hi,

Now what you need to do is to create a new CDS dataset for COUPLEXX since the existing CDS does not have enough space for making more entries for Logstream.It’s not that difficult : allocate new alternate couple datasets, add these as alternate and the content from the primary datasets gets copied. Switch alternate to primary, delete old primary and allocate new ones. Make them alternate and switch again if you like to keep your dsn names.

You can check for sample JCL for the utility IXCL1DSU.

Hope it helps

Let me know if you are still not clear.
