Yes, it is. It is telling you that there is an ABEND macro without the DUMP option. >or is LEAID some other product that is >suppressing Abend-Aid? (The failing program is indeed LE-based.) LEAID is a part of Abend-AID. LEAID is registered as an LE Abnormal Termination Exit. It is given control by LE. LE has its own error handling logic, and system dumps are usually suppressed. This is controlled by the LE TERMTHDACT and TRAP parameters >- There is a SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=* statement in the JCL -- will adding >//ABNLIGNR DD DUMMY get us a SYSUDUMP? Not necessarily. ABNLIGNR suppresses the Abend-AID report. ABNLDUMP should get you a SYSUDUMP, but I'm not sure if that will work in a situation where ABEND didn't have DUMP specified. If you do get a dump, it may be a U4039 that is issued by Abend-AID. Sometimes that's the best you can get in an LE environment because of the way LE uses ESTAE(X). -- Tom Marchant Abend-AID development ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
