Explanation
The operator entered CANCEL or C in response to message DFS690A.
Analysis
This is a standard abend issued by the EXEC statement PARM analysis program, DFSRRA00. Message DFS688I is sent to the IMS master console prior to the abend of the dependent region.
DFSRRA00 determines that the control region is not active while processing the parameter analysis for a dependent region. One of two conditions will result in this abend:
- The cancel option (
OPT=C) was specified on the dependent region EXEC statement. - The operator entered CANCEL or C in response to the error message DFS690A.
The operator has the option to specify WAIT to message DFS690A if the online control program is expected to be active shortly.
