ABEND subcommand (DSN)
The DSN subcommand ABEND causes the DSN session to terminate with abend completion code X'04E' and reason code of X'00C50101'. It is intended to be used at the direction of IBM® Support, if a problem is suspected (such as incorrect output) with another DSN subcommand, and the problem does not cause an abend and a dump to be generated.
The ABEND
subcommand is used for diagnostic purposes only, and is intended to be used only under the direction
of IBM Support. Use it only when diagnosing a problem
with DSN or Db2.

Usage notes for ABEND
Sometimes, the information dumped is not the information that you want. Always use the ABEND subcommand as soon as possible after a problem is re-created to increase the chances of obtaining meaningful data. Do not press the ATTENTION key before issuing the ABEND subcommand; usually, the data is lost.
