PI84351: ABO terminates with BOZ1429: OUTPUT FORMAT" I/O error encountered during binder API "saveW(SYSBOUT, )": return code=4

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• ABO can give error BOZ1429: OUTPUT FORMAT" I/O error
  encountered during binder API "saveW(SYSBOUT,<name>)": return
  code=4 reason code=0x83000410
  
  Problem is caused by a wrong global BINDER default of FILL(00).
  Since z/OS V1.11 it is possible to specify BINDER options
  also via a //IEWPARMS DD statement thus overriding the global
  BINDER defaults. The BINDER option FILL(00) is not supported
  for classical load modules and PM1-format program objects. See
  documentation in "MVS Program Management: User's Guide and
  Reference" SA23-1393-00.
  
  Modify the optimizer to better handle this situation.
  

Local fix

• 1) Remove the global BINDER option FILL(00) as long as PDS
  load libraries are still in use.
  OR
  2) Add a DD statement //IEWPARMS DD * to the ABO PGM=BOZOPT
  step specifying FILL=NONE thus overriding the global default.
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All users of the IBM Automatic Binary        *
  *                 Optimizer (ABO) for z/OS, v1.2 optimizing    *
  *                 modules link-edited using FILL option other  *
  *                 than FILL=NONE.                              *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: If the module being optimized by ABO    *
  *                      has been link-edited using a FILL       *
  *                      option other than FILL=NONE then ABO    *
  *                      will change the FILL option when        *
  *                      rebinding during optimization to        *
  *                      FILL=NONE.                              *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF.                      *
  *                                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  ABO was modified to rebind using the FILL option present in the
  original module instead of always using FILL=NONE. If no FILL
  option has been specified then ABO will still bind with
  FILL=NONE.
  

Problem conclusion

• ABO now reproduces the FILL setting from the original module in
  the optimized module.
