The abend keyword, and its associated keywords

The abend keyword is often seen in association with other keywords. These keywords can be used together to form a keyword string.

Use the ABEND keyword when the subsystem or task terminates abnormally. This procedure describes how to locate the abend completion code and the abend reason code (if there is one), and how to use them in a set of keywords. Check the SYS1.LOGREC to determine how many abends there were. Sometimes an earlier abend causes a secondary abend that causes a dump. If no dump has been taken, try searching the database with a minimum symptom string (the component-identifier, and release-level keywords). If we cannot find any information that seems to relate to your problem, contact your IBM® support center.
