S0C7 at the first step but the job returns CC=12

[utkarsh]

Hi,

I have a cobol db2 program abending in S0C7 at the first step but the job returns CC=12 and continue to run the next step instead of stopping at first step.

Anyone faced this issue?

Hello.

Most of the COBOL/DB2 programs that I have seen running make use of the DSN interface under TSO, i.e. they are invoked like this:

Code: Select all

//STEP1   EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01,REGION=0M
//STEPLIB   DD DISP=SHR,DSN=DSNC10.SDSNLOAD
//          DD DISP=SHR,DSN=DSNC10.SDSNLOD2
//SYSTSPRT  DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSTSIN   DD *
 DSN SYSTEM(DSN1)
     RUN PROGRAM(MYPROG) PLAN(MYPROG) LIBRARY('MYID.LOADLIB')
 END

When an abend occurs, TSO intercepts it. When TSO ends, it gives a return code 12.

To stop your subsequent steps from running, you need to use either COND= or wrap them in IF/ENDIF statements.

Man beachte auch viewtopic.php?t=1859
Es gibt drei Möglichkeiten TSO aufzurufen. Sie unterscheiden sich in der Fehlerbehandlung.

Thanks zum13.

Does that mean that all the steps of a JCL would still execute even if the any step gets an abend?

I thought, it would stop as soon as one get the abend?

Please also note viewtopic.php?t=1859
There are three ways to call TSO. They differ in the error handling. 

Thanks myoggradio. I checked the link and still understanding that.

Also lange Rede kurzer Sinn. Benutze IKJEFT1B statt IKJEFT01, dann werden auch Abbrüche von TSO durchgereicht. :-)

When using IKJEFT01, it's only the abend which occurs within that TSO step which gets caught and turned into a CC 12. Any other program running outside of IKJEFT01 would have their abends handled in the normal way, i.e. the job stops running at that step.

Thanks. This is a great information.
