Abend and VTAM Error Codes

System abend codes are formatted as either four-digit codes (XXXX through 9999) or five-digit codes (U9999) and are issued whenever a CA component completes execution; these codes report the completion status. System abend codes always start with S followed by three characters (SXXX). The four-digit abend code number indicates a user (not system) error. All non-zero codes indicate that a problem has occurred.

This section contains the following topics:

System Abend Codes

S713 and S613 Abends

User Abends

System Abend Codes

SA13

SA13 system abend, CA IDMS 1369 to ARBGEXTR.

If the extract task is abending, the most likely cause is that the tape that is being requested was scratched.

Check the Report Retrieval Queue Screen (VARMI300) for reference to the tape volume that caused the abend. Delete all reprint requests that use this volume. To eliminate any further requests for this volume, run the job DSEXARD using the VOLSER parameter to delete the volume from the CA Dispatch archive database.

S713 and S613 Abends

1369

The ARBG ARCH task abended with a 1369 code.

  1. Enter the Sysgen Control Information Screen (VSGMU210) for the archive system and blank out the current tape on the screen, or enter

    CLEAR TAPE from the Enter Next Task Code prompt.

  2. Go back to the Enter Next Task Code prompt and enter
    DCMT D AC TA
    

    to display active tasks and verify that Archive is not active. Then, enter

    S ARCH
    

    to start the Archive task. Verify that it requests a new scratch tape.

User Abends

D002

Code D002 cannot be diagnosed directly.

Examine the preceding message on the console log for the cause of the abend.

E005

E005 abend occurs when using the CA Dispatch CLIST. This abend is a result of an CA IDMS SVC call in error.

Check the SYSCTL data set specified in the CLIST to verify that the correct SVC was used in the Usergen and ensure that the SYSCTL DSN is the same as used in the CA Dispatch online.

Note: You can use the ISPF Browse to look at the SYSCTL file and offset 14 will have the SVC number in hexadecimal format.

SHDN

The user is trying to process after the STOPCADS command was issued.

Wait for the system to shut down and be restarted before trying this command again.

SV10

The security User exit requested a signoff. Messages DC980030 and DC980031 are associated.

The U-prefixed user abend codes are listed in numeric order.

U0003

An internal error occurred in Online Viewing database routines.

Contact Technical Support.

U0016

The foreground portion of Archive, Extract, Distribution, Status, Online Viewing, or Security detected that the background portion of that subtask has abended. (The abend from the background portion is the best indication of the error.)

U0042

The Initialization of the Archive, Extract, Distribution, Status, or Security subtask failed. A required module is not available for execution.

U0064

An I/O error occurred. Message DC900064 is associated.

Restart the task.

U0100

An I/O error occurred.

Restart the task.

U0107

When using the batch command utility, be sure to sign off using the BYE task code, or one of its equivalents. Input can be delayed or not processed until the BYE command is encountered. This requirement only applies if a HI task code has been used.

U0110

An I/O error occurred.

Restart the task.

U0997

CADDSPL error. This abend will produce a SVC dump.

U1301

The external Archive or Extract job has been started, but a request for the function does not exist. Message DC980027, DC980070, DC980074, DC980078, and DC980082 are associated. Investigate the execution of the job and the issuing of the online commands.

U1302

The external Archive or Extract job has been started, but a copy of the job is already executing. Message DC980028, DC980071, DC980075, DC980079, and DC980083 are associated. Investigate the execution of the job and the issuing of the online commands.

U1303

The external Archive, Extract or Distribution job failed to open the SYSCTL data set. Message DC980029, DC980072, DC980076, DC980080, and DC980084 are associated. Correct the JCL for the job and rerun.

U1310

An online task abends with a code of 1310. This abend is a result of the CA Dispatch storage pool having no more space to allocate to online tasks. Message DC900127 or DC900101 may be generated. If this abend occurs more than once, update the user GEN to specify a larger storage pool.

To prevent a further occurrence of 1310, do the following:

  1. Bring CA Dispatch down clean.
  2. Edit member DSSYSXA and make the following change:

STORAGE POOL IS nnn

nnn is the number of KB of storage to be allocated for the CA Dispatch work area at system startup.

  1. Make sure CA Dispatch is down, then submit JCL member DSEXUSR1.
  2. Before bringing CA Dispatch back up, increase the region on the startup JCL by the number of KB you increased your storage pool. If you increased the size of your XA storage pool, the region does not have to be increased.

U1313

An abend occurred due to one of the following situations: Either CAIRIM is not installed or you are not at the correct Genlevel of CA Common Services to support LMP. You must be at least at Genlevel 9409. This message follows abend message CAI6999E. You may also see the chapter "LMP Messages" in this guide.

Upgrade CA Common Services to the correct Genlevel. Be sure that your LMP key for CA Dispatch is included in the KEYS DD located in the CAS9 procedure. Then execute the CAS9 procedure.

U1320

The attach of the security foreground task failed. Message DC900129 is generated. Contact Technical Support.

U1321

An abend occurred in the security exit code. Message DC900128 is generated. Contact your systems programmer.

U1322

An abend occurred in the security exit code after entering a password. Message DC900128 is generated. Contact your systems programmer.

U1369

The foreground portion of the Archive, Extract, Distribution, Status, or Security subtask abended. There is an OS abend and dump that require review.

U1396

The background portion of the Archive, Extract, Distribution, Status, or Security subtask failed. This is associated with the message DC980003. There is a prior message and abend that gives the real description of the problem that occurred. The log may be needed to determine the problem.

U1399

The background portion of the external Archive or Extract job abended. Message DC980030 is associated. An OS abend and dump is the real cause of the problem.

U1409

Module RDSTSTRT could not get storage.

U1419

Dynamic input allocation failed. Check the accompanying DC980057 message.

U1420

Dynamic output allocation failed. Check the accompanying DC980061 message.

U1421

Dynamic allocation failed. Check the accompanying DC9800nn message.

U1422

Open failed for a dynamically-allocated file. Check the accompanying DC9800nn message.

U1423

Module received an invalid request. Check the accompanying DC9800nn message.

U1427

The CA 1 Tape Management external data manager was not found. Change the startup JCL. The library containing the CA 1 Tape Management load modules must be added to the STEPLIB of the startup JCL.

U1430

A CA Dispatch task abends with this code.

The CA Dispatch Central Vector Table could not be allocated in the IDMS storage pool. See message DC970046 for further information.

U1431

A CA Dispatch task abends with this code.

CA Dispatch can only execute on the MVS/ESA operating system. See message DC970047 for further information.

U1432

A CA Dispatch task abends with this code.

The CA Dispatch Program Vector Table could not be loaded from the IDMS program pool. See message DC970048 for further information.

U1434

A CA Dispatch task abends with this code.

An invalid record was read from CAIENF. This is an internal logic error. See message DC970010 for further information.

U3005

A CA Dispatch batch job abends with this code.

When this abend is encountered, check for JCL errors or DD STATEMENTS missing, such as CAIJRNL1, CAIJRNL2, and so forth. This abend indicates a DMCL error.

The only way to recover from this situation is to use your offloaded journal tapes and do a rollback using DSEXBR08, then run the DSEXJFIX job to initialize the current journals.

For more information, see the Rollback section of the Backup, Restore and Recovery chapter in the Systems Programmer Guide.

U3962

WARMSTART routine failed.

When starting CA Dispatch, the WARMSTART task fails with U3962 abend and the DC203006 UNABLE TO FIND BEGIN OR COMMIT CHECKPOINT FOR ALL ACTIVE RUN UNITS.

The only way to recover is to use your offloaded journal tapes and do a rollback using DSEXBR08. Follow the rollback with the DSEXJFIX job to initialize the current journals.

U3963

A CA Dispatch online abends with a U3963 code.

Take the following steps:

  1. Verify that the CA Dispatch SVC has not been modified.
  2. If the SVC has not been changed, execute the following JCL members in this order:
    1. DSEXPFIX
    2. DSEXQFIX

3. Restart CA Dispatch.

U3970

The CA Dispatch online abends with a U3970 code.

This is an CA IDMS "recursive abend". This means that something abended and in the process of cleaning up the abend, another abend occurred. The U3970 generates a full OS dump of the CA Dispatch region. There will be another abend which you can find on your system log or CA Dispatch log. With recursive abends this first abend will tell you the cause of the problem. If no other abend can be found, the dump must be sent.

U3981

The CA Dispatch online abends with a U3981 code.

Check to see if CAIDMCL is in the system LPA Library.

It should not be in LPA. The only other reason for this abend is if a CA Dispatch program tried to load the module CAIDMCL and could not.

U3995

The CA Dispatch online abends with a U3995 code.

This is an CA IDMS system abend. A program check occurred in a system module with R13 set to an invalid value. This usually means that a 0cx abend occurred in an IDMS User Exit. The only CA IDMS user exit supplied is related to the Security Exit named RDFGEX06. Back out any changes that you have made to the exit and reevaluate your changes. The U3995 abend generates a full OS dump of the CV region. If this problem persists, contact Technical Support.

U3996

The CA Dispatch online abends with a U3996 code.

A message was issued which requested the system to abend. Review the last message issued before the abend. Contact Technical Support for further assistance.
