DFS2184 MESSAGE DISCARDED BY MESSAGE CONTROL/ERROR EXIT.

Explanation

The exit flag set by the Message Control/Error exit routine indicates a request for IMS to discard the message.

System action

IMS does the following:
  • Discards the message that was partially processed before it called the exit routine.
  • Logs the message in an X'64' trace record if a receive error caused it to call the exit routine.
  • Logs the contents of the interface block before and after it called the exit routine in an X'6701' trace record.

Operator response

Notify the system programmer that message DFS2184 was issued.

System programmer response

Ensure that the discarded message does not affect the database.
