ESF1000

NO PARAMETERS PASSED

Reason:

No parameters were passed to the program. Either the string was empty or it contained only delimiters. Processing is terminated with a condition code
of 8.

Action:

Action:

Consult your systems programmer for help.

ESF1002

** ATTENTION INTERRUPT **

Reason:

This message is issued in response to pressing the PA1 key when the program executes as a command processor. This message is accompanied by another message. Processing is terminated.

Action:

Depends on accompanying message.

ESF1004

PARSE RC=04 - INCOMPLETE PARAMETERS

Reason:

A return code of 04 (decimal) was returned from the parse service routine. This message will be issued if you make an error in the calling sequence and the profile indicates NOPROMPT. Execution is terminated with a condition code of 8.

Action:

Specify complete parameters or alter the profile using the command PROFILE PROMPT, then retry the failing command.

ESF1005

PARSE RC=08 - ATTENTION INTERRUPT

Reason:

The PA1 key was pressed during execution of the parse service routines, which did not complete. Execution is terminated with a condition code of 8.

Action:

None.

ESF1006

Action:

Contact your systems programmer.

ESF1010

DD STATEMENT FOR SYSIN MISSING

Reason:

The SYSIN parameter was passed to ESFPRINT, indicating that further parameters were available in the SYSIN data set, but this data set is not allocated. Execution is terminated with a condition code of 8.

Action:

Correct parameters.

ESF1011

NO F1DSCB FOR SYSIN-DATASET

Reason:

The SYSIN data set does not exist physically. Execution is terminated with a condition code of 8.

Action:

Create the SYSIN data set or pass the parameters in another way.

ESF1012

Reason:

The SYSIN data set which was to contain the parameters could not be opened. Execution is terminated with a condition code of 8.

Action:

Contact your systems programmer.

ESF1013

INVALID DCB INFORMATION FOR SYSIN

Reason:

The SYSIN data set does not contain 80-byte fixed-length blocked or unblocked records. Execution is terminated with a condition code of 8.

Action:

Use a data set with valid attributes or pass the parameters in another way.

ESF1014

PARAMETER WORK AREA FULL

Reason:

The parameter work area in ESFPRINT is full. This area is big enough to contain any valid combination of parameters; therefore, this message indicates a parameter-specification error. Execution is terminated with a condition code of 8.

Action:

Correct the parameters, then rerun.

ESF1015

SYSIN CONTAINS NO PARAMETERS

Reason:

Action:

Correct the parameters, then rerun.

ESF1018

KEYWORD MUST HAVE OPERAND - xxxxxxxx

Reason:

Action:

Specify existing member(s), then rerun.

ESF1037

DATASET CONTAINS NO CC

Reason:

The CCHAR keyword was specified or defaulted, but the input data set does not contain control characters. Execution continues without the CCHAR option in effect.
