Hierarchy of Information

When CA SymDump Batch produces an abend report, all of the programs that are active at the time of the ABEND are included, unless the ACTONLY option is set to ON, or unless individual programs are excluded from reporting in your installation defaults.

Several factors affect how much information is provided for each program, including:

For COBOL or PL/I programs, storage areas and control blocks are broken out and formatted, and compiler statistics are provided.
If your PROTSYM (or CSL) contains symbolic information for an active COBOL, PL/I, or Assembler program, the reports include the last executed source statement, the names and values of the variables, and more.
