z/OS DFSORT Application Programming Guide
SC23-6878-00

There are two categories of abends for DFSORT: unexpected abends and user abends issued by DFSORT.
  • Unexpected abends

    These are system abends or user abends not issued by DFSORT. The abend code in these cases is the system abend code or the user abend code. See z/OS DFSORT Messages, Codes and Diagnosis Guide for information about detecting common user errors and reporting DFSORT program failures.

  • User abends issued by DFSORT
    DFSORT will issue user abends under the following circumstances:
    • The ABEND or ABSTP option is in effect and DFSORT encounters an error that prevents completion of the run.
    • DFSORT detects an error in its internal logic.

    See z/OS DFSORT Messages, Codes and Diagnosis Guide for complete information about user abends issued by DFSORT.
