Default Control Statement

You can override one or more of the system default specifications for exception code checking on the default control statement. The default control statement must be the first statement specified and its ID must be DEFAULT.

The following example requires exceptional condition checking:

• Only condition codes greater than 7 are treated as exceptional conditions
• User abend code 2000 and not recataloged messages are ignored (not treated as exceptional conditions)
• Jobs P27XY1, P28A05, and P30R16 normally end with user abend code 1000, so user abend code 1000 is not treated as an exceptional condition for these jobs
• STEP2 of all jobs whose names start with SYS normally terminate with user abend code 16

  This abend is not treated as an exceptional condition.

• All other conditions are exceptions (the system defaults)

Your code control statements as follows:

/DEFAULT CC>7 NOUSER2000 NORCAT
/P27XY1   NOUSER1000 NOUSER2000
/P28A05   NOUSER1000 NOUSER2000
/P30R16   NOUSER1000 NOUSER2000
/SYS*.STEP2   NOUSER16
