Explanation
At EOV time, a block count mismatch was detected.
The count computed from hardware device information does not match
the count computed by the access method or application program. A
block count mismatch results in one of three system completion codes:
- abend 237, reason code 0C;
- abend 214, reason code 10; or
- abend 117, reason code 3C.
In the message text:
- xxxx
- The count computed from either the hardware device information
or recorded in the tape label.
- yyyy
- The count computed by the access method or application program.
System action
The system abnormally ends the task, and issues
an accompanying message that further describes the error condition.
For abend 237, the system issues IEC023I; for abend 214, IEC210I;
and for abend 117, IEC218I.
Programmer response
Refer to IEC023I, IEC210I, or IEC218I for
an appropriate response.
