  • 1.  T063 abend in CA IDMS release 17.0 tape GJH01B

    Posted Nov 12, 2011 10:16 PM
    We implemented a revised DC-COBOL yesterday and started getting T063 abends. The newest Messages and Codes (volume 1) manual I have is from rels 16 and doesn't (seem to) have this abend code.

    I assume it's in the rels 17. If so, could someone reply with the description? PSW is zeroes so I assume the error is occurring at initial load time.

    110911 11.55.22 IDMS DC027007 V10 T511961 TASK:ADS2 PROG:PTEL2770 ABENDED WITH CODE T063

    Alex:

    There was an APAR for IDMS release 15.0 for this error, I am not sure if there is a release 16 or release 17 version of this APAR?

    Hi Alex,

    The T0xx abend codes are issued by SVC screening when there is a call to an unsupported SVC. Where xx is the SVC number in hex. Abend code T063 is a call to the DYNALLOC SVC 99 (x'63'). In COBOL programs this can be caused by using the compile option TEST. There may also be other options I’m not aware of. Best to check what options other programs are compiled with.

    Gary's bang on (as usual).

    Yes, our compile options now default to CBL TEST (the company is replacing Xpediter with IBM Debug and change was put in to facilitate use of the new tool) I recompiled with CBL NOTEST and program now works as advertised.

    Thanks all for the replies. Alex McLellan
