Error codes

The scheduler assigns error codes to certain operations and to job and started task steps. These codes are used by the automatic job recovery function to decide a recovery action.
CAN
The job or started task was canceled by the operator or by a TSO user before execution. This code is also possible if the job-termination event (type 3P) is missing.
CCUN
The completion code is unknown. The job or started task has ended, but no completion code is available. This code is also possible if the job-end event (type 3J) is missing.

Check the job log and SYSLOG.

CLNA
A failure occurred when HCL Workload Automation for Z attempted to complete the JCL tailoring during the restart and cleanup process.
CLNC
A failure occurred when HCL Workload Automation for Z attempted to execute the data set cleanup during the restart and cleanup process.
CLNO
A failure occurred when HCL Workload Automation for Z attempted to retrieve the historical job log data during the restart and cleanup process. nnnn Step return code. S xxx System abend code. U xxx User abend code in hexadecimal notation. For example, user abend 2750 is represented in HCL Workload Automation for Z as UABE. xxxx User-defined error code.
CLNP
A failure occurred in the EQQCLEAN step, during the run of a restarted job.
JCCE
An error during JCC (job completion checker) processing prevented the JCC from determining an error code for the operation.
FBND
The request to bind the shadow job with a real instance of the remote plan failed.
JCL
A JCL error was recognized after the job or started task began to execute, or a JCL error was recognized after syntax checking in the internal reader.
JCLI
A JCL error occurred immediately; that is, the error was detected before the job or started task began. This code is also possible when both the job-start event (type 2) and the job-end event (type 3J) are missing. On HCL Workload Automation Agent workstations, this code is returned when a parsing error occurs in the JOBREC statement.
LOOP
The workstation analyzer task has tried to start the same operation repeatedly and message EQQW534E has been stored in the controller MLOG to signal a loop. To stop the loop, the operation was set to error with error code LOOP.
MCP
The operation was manually set to error in the MCP panel.
OAUT
While running the System Automation command specified with the operation, the System Automation exit EQQUXSAZ issued a return code different from 0. The operation status is set to E. Check for System Automation messages in the log specified in the AUTOMATIONMSG parameter of the OPCOPTS statement.
ODEA
The operation did not complete by the time settings that you specified in Deadline Action.
OLAT
The operation did not start by the time settings that you specified in Not Started Action.
OFxx
The system that the operation is defined on has gone offline. The WSOFFLINE parameter on the JTOPTS initialization statement specifies that started operations should be marked as ended-in-error. xx is the status and extended status of the failing operation. Operations that were running (status SS) have a step-code error status of OFFL.
OJCV
An error occurred during JCL-variable substitution when the job or started task was submitted, or HCL Workload Automation for Z detected an error in the RECOVER statement during automatic recovery. Browse the JCL for the operation or the EQQMLOG data set to find more information about the failure.

This error code can also be issued when an error occurred during variable substitution in a System Automation command text. The operation status could be set to E, based on the SAVARFAIL parameter set in the OPCOPTS initialization statement. To identify the variables not resolved and the type of error occurred, check for the messages related to occurrence variable substitution in EQQMLOG.

OSEQ
A job or started task began to execute before all its predecessors have completed. This can occur only if the job was not submitted by HCL Workload Automation for Z and if either HOLDJOB(NO) or HOLDJOB(USER) is specified in the EWTROPTS statement.

OSIN
Default value for operations set in error through the OPSTAT command or EQQUSIN subroutine.
OSUB
A failure occurred when HCL Workload Automation for Z attempted to submit a job or start a started task. In the case of a started task, it could be that the started task is a subsystem that is not started by JES, or HCL Workload Automation for Z subsystem EQQSTC ddname is not allocated to a JES-defined procedure library. The operation should be marked as ended-in-error.
For jobs running on:
  • z-centric agent workstations and z/OS® shadow jobs, OSUB indicates that the job submission failed.
  • For file transfer jobs running on z-centric agent workstations, OSUB could indicate that the job submission failed for security reasons. In this case, the error code and reason code are provided in the EQQHT83W message stored in the controller MLOG.
OSUF
A failure occurred when HCL Workload Automation for Z attempted to retrieve the JCL for a job or started task. This code is set if the SUBFAILACTION keyword of the JTOPTS initialization statement specifies that the operation should be marked as ended-in-error. This code is also caused if you have JOBCHECK(SAME) and the job name in the application description does not match the one on the job card. Another reason for this code is a job is missing JCL that was packed by ISPF in EQQJBLIB.
OSUP
A time operation is late, and the SUPPRESSACTION parameter of the JTOPTS initialization statement specified that the operation should be marked as ended-in-error. OSxx The system on which the operation is defined has failed. The WSFAILURE parameter on the JTOPTS initialization statement specifies that started operations should be marked as ended-in-error. xx is the status and extended status of the failing operation. Operations that were running (status SS) have a step-code error of OSYS.
OSxx
The system on which the operation is defined has failed. The WSFAILURE parameter on the JTOPTS initialization statement specifies that started operations should be marked as ended-in-error. xx is the status and extended status of the failing operation. Operations that were running (status SS) have a step-code error of OSYS.
PCAN
A print operation was canceled by the operator.
nnnn
Step return code.
SERC
An operation submitted in a Restart and Clean up path (via dialogue but also automatically, for example, when clean up was set to AUTOMATIC) was not submitted because the required scheduling environment was not available..
SEUN
An operation required a scheduling environment that is unknown to WLM; for this reason it was not submitted.
SHPF
The request to bind the shadow job is rejected.
Sxxx
System abend code.
UNKN
When a connection problem occurs between the controller and a z-centric agent where a job is running, if the query status for that job is unknown, the job is set to Error with UNKN.
Uxxx
User abend code in hexadecimal notation. For example user abend 2750 is represented in HCL Workload Automation for Z as UABE.
xxxx
User-defined error code.
