DSNU messages

Message identifiers that begin with DSNU communicate information about DB2® utilities.

The severity values shown for the utility messages that follow are returned as the job-step condition code from the job step during which the message is issued. If additional messages having higher severity values are issued during the same job step, the higher value is reflected as the job-step condition code.

The output of DSNU messages that are sent to SYSPRINT will have a timestamp after the message number. This timestamp uses the Julian date format of HH:MM:SS:TT.

Severity values have the following meanings:

0 Informational No error occurred
4 Warning A condition was detected. The user might need to take further action.
8 Error An error was detected. Processing could not continue.
12 Severe error An authorization error was detected. Processing could not continue.
