Test Data Manager

Hi,

I am using mainframe data maker to mask files.I noticed that CA data maker is not throwing return code greater than 0 when the job has ended with space issue. Because of this job ends fine but when we compare input and masked file we come to know about the actual issue.

Is it possible you to update the code so that it throws return code more than 0 in case of problem while writing to output masked file(may be space issue)?

Thanks,

Hi Abhinav,

I am discussing this with the team and will get back to you on this soon.

Hi,

I don't think there is a way for executing program to know that it will run out of space, as the program writes to a file the operating system buffers records, and at some point writes those to disk, so the out of space problem comes after the program has written a record.  The operating system will give a B37 or E37 code if space runs out.

Hi,

I recommend you to open a support issue for this case.
