Exceptional Condition Checking (System and User-Specified Conditions)

When archiving SYSOUT, each record is scanned for exceptional conditions. You can have CA View check for an IEF system code, such as IEF142I, or you can specify any string of text to search as a user-specified condition.

You specify the exception conditions with control statements to the archival started task SARSTC. Each control statement applies to one or more jobs by specific or wildcard job names.

For completion codes and abends, the control statement can be further qualified to a specific step, procedure step, or both. A default control statement is provided to override one or all of the system defaults.

To enable editing of the exceptional condition table while the started task is active, the table must be established as a member of a PDS rather than a sequential data set.
