Codes issued by BMC AMI Datastream products
This topic explains BMC AMI Datastream for z/OS, CZALDFIL, and CZASEND return codes and discusses completion codes for the IBM Language Environment.
The return codes has the following general meanings:
- 0 indicates success.
- 4 indicates a warning.
- 8, 12, and 16 indicate increasingly severe error conditions.
The following table associates severity indicators (the last character of a message ID) with return codes:
Severity indicator | Meaning | Associated return code |
|---|---|---|
I | Informational—The message provides information that is not related to an error or warning condition. | 0 |
W | Warning—The message reports a condition that warrants investigation, but it is not an error condition. You should attempt to resolve warning conditions rather than ignoring them. | 4 |
E | Error—An error occurred, and you should resolve it promptly. | 8 |
S | Severe error—A serious error is making productive execution impossible. | 12 |
C | Critical or fatal error—An error has made it impossible for the program to continue. The program terminates immediately. | 16 |
BMC AMI Datastream for z/OS return code
0 | All parameters were valid and all operations were successful. No warning conditions were detected. |
4 | All parameters were valid and all operations were successful. However, one or more warning conditions were detected. |
8 | An error occurred during message transmission and might have prevented the successful transmission of the message. Refer to the description of the error in CZAPRINT. |
12 | An error occurred in the parameter file. If the error was detected on startup, BMC AMI Datastream for z/OS terminates to allow you to fix the parameter file. If the error was detected during the processing of a MODIFY PARMS command, BMC AMI Datastream for z/OS continues, ignoring the parameter in error. |
16 | A fatal error occurred. BMC AMI Datastream for z/OS was not able to continue. BMC AMI Datastream for z/OS attempts to free its z/OS storage and uninstall the IEFUxx exits before terminating, usually with a mini-dump on CZADIAG. |
CZALDFIL return code
0 | All data sets were sent successfully. No warning conditions were detected. |
4 | All data sets were sent successfully, but one or more warning conditions were detected. |
8 | An error occurred during transmission of one or more data sets. The error might have prevented the successful transmission of the data sets.> |
12 | The provided parameters caused an error. CZALDFIL attempted recovery, but the data sets might not have transmitted successfully. |
16 | The provided parameters caused an error. CZALDFIL attempted recovery, but the data sets might not have transmitted successfully transmitted successfully. |
CZASEND return code
0 | The message was sent successfully. No warning conditions were detected. |
4 | The message was sent successfully, but one or more warning conditions were detected. |
8 | An error occurred during message transmission and might have prevented the successful transmission of the message. |
12 | An error occurred in the parameter file. CZASEND attempted recovery, but the message might not have transmitted successfully. |
16 | A fatal error occurred in the parameter file. CZASEND was not able to continue. |
IBM Language Environment completion codes
The IBM Language Environment (LE) is the language library that BMC AMI Datastream for z/OS and related programs use. LE sometimes terminates programs with user ABEND codes in the range U4001 through U4095. For more information about these codes, refer to the IBM Knowledge Center. BMC provides support for these errors. If you contact support with a U4xxx error, you must have the exact ABEND code, the reason code (given in message IEF472I and elsewhere), any preceding CEEnnnnx messages, and any BMC AMI Datastream for z/OS errors from CZAPRINT, CZADIAG or both.
