Table 1. Return codes for the TESTAUTH subcommand termination exit
Return code (decimal)	Description
0	Exit processing was successful. TESTAUTH processing continues.
12	Exit processing was unsuccessful. TESTAUTH issues an error message to the user and then terminates processing. If the exit uses return code 12, it can also pass back an exit reason code to the TESTAUTH command processor. For more information about the exit reason code, see Exit reason code.
16	Exit processing was unsuccessful. TESTAUTH terminates processing. The TESTAUTH command processor does not display a message to the user if the exit sets a return code of 16. Before the exit returns with return code 16, it can display a message to the user, for example, using PUTLINE.

If the exit returns an undefined return code, the TESTAUTH command processor terminates without displaying a message to the user.
