As far as finding the source statement, yes this is possible with ABO. We run IBM's Fault Analyzer and it has PTFs that make it compatible with ABO optimized code. So, this tool can go through the updated 'listing' file produced as part of the ABO output to help get back to the original source code.
I would guess that other tools (ie: Abend Aid) would be able to do the same thing. As far as doing it manually - good luck, but with the output from the optimization run, you can probably figure out how to get back to your original code. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Lizette Koehler Sent: Monday, March 27, 2017 9:45 AM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: How does ABO report its outcome? (was: Migrating Cobol) So ABO optimizes LOAD modules. Optimized applications created with Automatic Binary Optimizer for z/OS are supported by IBM DevOps Tools, which include IBM Application Delivery Foundation for z Systems family of products: Developer for z Systems Enterprise Edition, which includes Debug for z Systems (previously known as Debug Tool for z/OS). Helps examine, monitor, and control the execution of application programs. Fault Analyzer for z/OS. Helps developers analyze and fix application and system failures. Gathers information about an application and the surrounding environment. Application Performance Analyzer for z/OS. Helps developers in the design, development and maintenance cycles with an non-intrusive application performance analyzer. Additional information can be found on the Application Delivery Foundation for z Systems website. Not sure if this helps or not. Check out this PDF. Also, make sure all current fixes are applied to ABO http://publibfp.boulder.ibm.com/epubs/pdf/c2785453.pdf Lizette > -----Original Message----- > From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] > On Behalf Of Peter Hunkeler > Sent: Sunday, March 26, 2017 10:36 PM > To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU > Subject: How does ABO report its outcome?
