Error description

• Environment: z\OS VSE
  Product name: IBM Rational Business Developer
  
  Program Version    :  9.0.1
  Description.
  EGL generation for VSE fails to return all expected output back
  to the IDE.
  When generating EGL programs to VSE with USEVSEBUILDSERVER=yes
  and when the generation process in VSE includes multiple job
  steps producing
  multiple output lists, all the output lists are not returned to
  the RBD and returns errors with VSE level 4.3.0 GA.
  The problem is also observed with RBD level 9.0.1 and z/VSE
  level 5.1.2.
  
  VSE development advised that the VSE Build Server was written
  before the introduction of VSE 4.3, which introduced a new API
  for retrieving multiple outputs.
  This defect then concerns updating the Build Server to use this
  new API.

  ****************************************************************
  The VSE Build Server in RBD is not able to always retrieve
  all output generated from a build job. This is due to the
  VSE Build Server using an old API for retrieving job output
  using the VSE Connector Client (prior to z/VSE 4.3).
  

Problem conclusion

• The VSE Build Server in RBD has been updated to use the new
  job output retrieval API introduced in the VSE Connector
  Client for z/VSE 4.3
