CSECT keyword

The CSECT keyword and parameter is often associated with an abend code and can assist with identifying where the abend problem occurred.

To find the name of the failing CSECT, locate the LOC= label; the second word following it is the CSECT name. For an example, see Analyzing the dump and interpreting dump titles on z/OS.

Any CSECT name you locate should begin with the letters CSQ or CMQ. If we find a CSECT name with a different prefix, the problem is probably not in IBM MQ for z/OS.
