Hi,

We are using DIAG A8, and we are getting a RC of 3.  This does not appear to be documented.  We can see a condition code of 3, but not the R15 RC of 3.

Has anyone seen documentation for this RC?

 Table 17. DIAGNOSE Code X'A8' Return Codes in the Guest's Register 15  
          with CC=1

 Device not attached.                        
                                             
Note:  This indicates that either the device
       has not been logically attached, or  
       that the physical path to the device  
       has been lost. If the physical path  
       to the device has been lost, then    
       some portion of the channel program  
       may have been executed. This is      
       because CP may have used multiple    
       real channel programs to perform the  
       I/O operation.                        
 1          2 (X'02')    Device is not supported.                    
 1          5 (X'05')    Device is busy, or has an interrupt pending.


If you receive a condition code of 3, this indicates that an unrecoverable I/O error occurred or the I/O was terminated at the user's request by entering an exigent command. If the I/O error resulted in a unit check, then sense data is stored in the sense data field and the amount of sense data stored is in the sense data count field. Return code 13 is set in the guest's register 15, indicating that a permanent I/O error occurred.
