Step for obtaining diagnosis information when the binder is invoked from ld:

About this task

Before you begin: You need to make sure the IEWDUMP and IEWTRACE data sets are pre-allocated and cataloged. You can use either or both data sets. There is no restriction on the data set name.

Perform the following step to obtain the diagnosis information.

Guidelines: These guidelines are designed to ease problem determination:
  • For problem diagnosis, it is strongly advised that you also use export _BPXK_JOBLOG=2 so that any message appearing on the operator console is also written to stderr.
  • In addition to IEWDUMP and IEWTRACE, use both the ld -v and -V options to capture stdout and stderr. This method makes the binder invocation parameters and the binder output listing with error messages available for diagnosis.
