Both the CA Panvalet programs (for example, PAN#1 or PAN#2) and the CA Panvalet Subsystem issue user ABEND codes. The ABEND codes correspond to the CA Panvalet and CA Panvalet Subsystem diagnostic message numbers (PVxxx and PANVxxx, respectively). User ABENDs are usually accompanied with an associated diagnostic message preceding the ABEND. However, depending upon the severity of the error and the ability of the terminating environment to issue a message, not all user ABENDs are accompanied with their associated diagnostic messages.

Note: Programs using CA Panvalet Subsystem data sets can issue their own user ABENDs. Therefore, it would be confusing if the subsystem issued user ABENDs. The failure of a request for a subsystem data set usually causes the OPEN for the data set to fail with a system S013‑C0 code. Diagnostic messages from the subsystem appear with allocation messages for the step.
