LOGGER SUBSYSTEM (ssname) EXIT PROVIDED AN ERROR RETURN DD=ddname EXIT=exitname FUNCTION= {CONVERTER | ALLOCATION | OPEN | CLOSE | UNALLOCATION} RETCODE= retcode

Explanation

The system logger subsystem exit routine provided a return code that indicates the job or job step be terminated.

In the message text:
ssname
is the installation defined subsystem name for system logger.
ddname
is the name of the DD statement or equivalent dynamic allocation DD name with the SUBSYS= specification. The name will be blanks for the converter function or for the allocation function and a concatenated DD.
exitname
is the name of the exit specified (either explicitly or by default) on the SUBSYS= keyword.
CONVERTER
Indicates that the subsystem converter function encountered the error.
ALLOCATION
Indicates that the subsystem allocation function encountered the error.
OPEN
Indicates that the subsystem open function encountered the error.
CLOSE
Indicates that the subsystem close function encountered the error.
UNALLOCATION
Indicates that the subsystem unallocation function encountered the error.
retcode
The return code from the exit routine.

System action

The job terminates for CONVERTER requests. The job step terminates for ALLOCATION requests of JCL DD SUBSYS= statements. Dynamic Allocation requests return with an error and the request is rejected.

Operator response

None.

System programmer response

None.

User response

Check the return code with the provider of the exit routine that was specified on the SUBSYS= keyword and make the appropriate corrections. If the name of the exit is IXGSEXIT, then system logger is the provider of the exit. Return codes for IXGSEXIT can be found in the macro IXGSXCMP. General information about IXGSEXIT can be found in Reading Data From Log Streams in Data Set Format of the z/OS MVS Programming: Assembler Services Guide, and in IXGSEXIT – Log Stream Subsystem Exit of the z/OS MVS Installation Exits.

Programmer response

None.
