User completion codes

System Programmer Response

For most user completion codes, the system programmer should continue with the following procedure:

  • Obtain the dump for the failing job step. If the JCL for the step did not contain a DD statement for a SYSMDUMP dump, add this statement and run the job step again.
  • Format and analyze the SYSMDUMP with the interactive problem control system (IPCS).
  • Search problem reporting databases for a fix for the problem. If no fix exists, report the problem to the IBM Support Center.
