JCL - CEEDUMP

Postby chetan_007 » Wed Feb 18, 2009 11:16 pm

Hi Friends,

Does any one have idea about what's the procedure to read the CEEDUMP. Generally when a job abends, we will have the offset value in the sysout along with program failed.

But what's the difference between offset value and address ?
Also in the dump, I believe we can check or point out the exact location of failure by checking HEXLOC values.

Please let me know the procedure to check the CEEDUMP to locate the point of failure in the program???

Thanks,
Kumar

Hello,

But what's the difference between offset value and address ?
The offset value is relative to the start of your program. The "address" is the actual memory location of the abend.

Please let me know the procedure to check the CEEDUMP to locate the point of failure in the program???
Many systems today have software to assist in trouble-shooting (like abend-aid). These tools clearly show the cause and location of many abends. If you only have the dump to work with, it may be more productive to add some diagnostic code to the program to help isloate the problem.
Hope this helps,
d.sch.
