Handling return codes and reason codes z/OS MVS Programming: Authorized Assembler Services Reference SET-WTO SA23-1375-00 |
|
Most of the services described in this information provide return
codes and reason codes. Return and reason codes indicate the outcome
of the service in one of the following ways:
The errors that cause unsuccessful completion fall into three broad
categories:
In some cases, a return or reason code can result from some combination of these errors. The return and reason code descriptions for the services in this information indicate whether the error is a program error, an environmental error, a system error, or some combination. Whenever possible, the return and reason code descriptions give you a specific action that you can take to fix the error. IBM® recommends that you read all the return and reason codes for each service that your program issues. You can then design your program to handle as many errors as possible. When designing your program, you should allow for the possibility that future releases of MVS™ might add new return and reason codes to a service that your program issues. |
