BC3

Explanation

The JES3 dump job server address space encountered an error. The abend reason code identifies the specific error.
Code
Explanation
01
The ASEXT macro returned a non-zero return code while the dump job server space was attempting to extract the address space parameters. Registers 2 and 3 when the BC3 abend is issued contain the return and reason codes from the ASEXT macro call.
02
The address of the extracted parameter string returned from the ASEXT macro is zero.
03
The ALESERV macro returned a non-zero return code while the dump job server space was attempting to add JES3's ALET to its access list. Registers 2 and 3 when the BC3 abend is issued contain the return and reason codes from the ALESERV macro call.
04
The ALESERV macro returned a non-zero return code while the dump job server address space was attempting to extract its STOKEN. Registers 2 and 3 when the BC3 abend is issued contain the return and reason codes from the ALESERV macro call.
05
The ALESERV macro returned a non-zero return code while the dump job server address space was attempting to extract JES3's STOKEN. Registers 2 and 3 when the BC3 abend is issued contain the return and reason codes from the ALESERV macro call.
06
The STOKEN associated with the JES3 address space that started the dump job server address space is not the same as the current JES3 address space.
07
The STIMERM macro returned a non-zero return code while the dump job server address space was attempting to setup status monitoring for the JES3 address space. Register 2 when the BC3 abend is issued contains the return code from the STIMERM macro call.
08
The dump job server's ECB was posted with an incorrect function code. Register 2 when the BC3 abend is issued contains the function code.

System action

A dump of the JES3 dump job server address and the JES3 address space is taken. The dump job server address space ends and the Dump Job DSP in the JES3 address space that controls the server address space also ends.

Programmer response

Search problem reporting databases for a fix for the problem. If no fix exists, contact the IBM® Support Center and provide the following documentation:
  • The BC3 abend reason code.
  • The information in registers 2 and 3 at the time of error (if applicable).
  • The dump taken by the JES3 server address space.
  • The SYSLOG around the time of error.
  • The *CALL DJ command that caused the JES3 dump job server address space to be started.
  • The dump job DSP log (if available).
