In some installations, one or more direct access devices may
be dedicated to a critical application. Permanent errors that
occur on these devices may cause failures in the online
systems or batch programs using the libraries and data sets.
By examining all permanent errors that occur on these
critical devices, you may be able to identify, isolate, and
resolve problems that are impacting the services provided by
your installation.
DEFINITION: This exception is created when a permanent
error is detected on any direct access device identified as
being critical to the installation. Note that any error
producing a 07500 exception will also create a 07501
exception, though the reverse is not true. Exception 07500
identifies permanent errors ONLY if they occur on a CRITICAL
DASD Device. Exception 07501 identifies ALL permanent
errors.
EXCEPTION STATEMENTS: The SAS statements identifying the
exception situation and describing the condition are stored
in the source member named in SOURCE LOCATION and are
described below:

LINK HIT;
END;
THRESHOLD MODIFICATION: The user should modify the
address of the critical direct access device according to the
following convention:
cuuu - is the channel and unit address of the direct
access device. For a device with access through more
than one channel address, the address should be the
lowest address that can be used. For example, a
device with addresses 240 and 440 would appear as
DEVNUM = '0240x'
NOTE: For direct access devices having movable address
plugs, you may wish to track permanent errors
using the volume serial number. In this case, you
should replace the DEVADDR = '0000x' expression
with the expression VOLSER = 'volname'. This
technique may also be used for permanently mounted
volumes such as the IBM 3350 so that the exception
tracking is not dependent on the actual hardware
address being used. The following convention
would be used:
volname - is the 6 character volume serial number of the
direct access volume. The volume GRP400 would appear
VOLSER = 'GRP400'
