The PPQ.ERROR Variable

If a PPQ command does not execute successfully-returning a non-zero RC value-it generates an error message and stores the message in the special REXX variable called PPQ.ERROR.

The PPQ error message ID begins with the prefix “PPQ” followed by a four-digit number (corresponding to the RC return code value) and a letter indicating the message type. See the Message Reference Guide for a more detailed description of the error message.

For example, if RC=4005, then the error message contained in the PPQ.ERROR variable is:

PPQ4005E  Insufficient memory.
