Abend FDB indicates an invalid SVC call. The SVC number is x'DB', or 219, which
is in the range of installation defined SVCs. In other words, it's not an
official IBM SVC. Either the SVC environment was set up improperly, or it was
not an actual SVC call but execution of code that looks like an SVC but isn't.
You need to find the location where the SVC was issued. Easiest way I know of
is system trace table.
