I think that's the problem: he does not know. They run some program for which the source code is not readily available. It fails, with the message FDBWD : 00141300 FDBK2. He knows that is insufficient information but wants to know if anyone here recognizes it, goes "oh yeah, that would be a blah blah blah failure in X."
Trying to help, some IBM products issue a "feedback two" or FDBK2 code: VTAM comes to mind. VTAM return code and feedback of 0014 13 would be CID not valid: The RPLARG field or the NIBCID field does not contain a valid CID, or a valid CID was issued with the wrong ACB, or INTRPRET is being used for a cross-domain LU. @Jake, what *might* the product be trying to do? Is it a telecommunications product? A database product ...

What function are you trying to do? I am used to those fields being VSAM, and they are documented in the DFSMS manuals. But were you doing an OPEN, or a GET, or a PUT, or a CLOSE, or something else? What is the Return Code (Register 15)? Are you using RLS or TVS? What version of z/OS? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
