Just so we're clear: it is quite possible (you can decide whether 'legitimate') to code an S222 on an abend macro in any program. Just because an application takes a deliberate dive, that doesn't make the abend 'user'. The code gets reported according to how the macro is coded, not on circumstances surrounding the crash. Likewise a reason code may be coded as well. Or not.

This is not something I would think would be an IBM process. Ask them if their Assembler source code contains this ABEND macro coded more or less like this example: ABEND 222,REASON=<reason code>,,,<either USER or SYSTEM> HTH!
