Chapter 1. Overview

Chap 1

Strobe issues messages that report on the status of the components of Strobe. Specifically, these messages are returned from the session management facility, its session manager and session requester components, the measurement facility and its subsystem components, and the reporting facility. These components are described in the Strobe User Guide. Messages fall into six categories depending upon their level of severity. They can be informative messages, License Manager System (LMS) messages, warnings, conditional errors, errors, and severe errors. Informative messages confirm user inputs, present information about the status of a Strobe function, and announce the completion of processing. License Manager System messages provide information about the licenses you have Compuware products. See the License Manager System documentation for more information about these messages. Warnings indicate that Strobe has performed the requested operation but had to use some default options. Conditional errors indicate that Strobe has performed the requested operation, but the information in the Strobe Performance Profile may be incomplete. Errors indicate that Strobe did not perform the operation, but you can correct and resubmit the request. Severe errors cause Strobe to terminate processing. The Strobe User Guide contains system recovery information.

Message Destination
The Strobe session management facility writes its messages to the SYSPRINT dataset and to an operators terminal (if the request originated from the terminal). The session management facility also writes all messages, except those produced in response to measurement session status requests, to the Strobe log dataset. The session management facility writes those messages produced in response to measurement session status requests to an operators terminal. Strobe/ISPF displays its messages at the top of the panel associated with the error. You can view a longer explanation by pressing the Help PF key. When the session management facility performs an operation and returns more than one message, Strobe/ISPF places the messages in a dataset and invokes the ISPF Browse function. Strobe writes messages produced during reporting and indexing to the SYSPRINT dataset. In addition, Strobe writes messages related to iStrobe to the iStrobe Performance Profile PROFILE.XML file. SQL analysis messages are also sent to the SYSTERM DD.

Message Format
Messages consist of an identifier followed by a short description of the condition. Message identifiers have a standard format of STRsnnnx, where:

1-2

Strobe Messages Guide

STR is the Strobe prefix. snnn is a four-digit message key, where s is the Strobe subsystem identification. nnn is the unique message number within the program identified by s. x is a one-letter severity code indicator. The possible values for the severity code and their associated return codes are shown in Return Codes and Severity Codes on page 1-2. Strobe follows the message identifier with a short description of the condition. For example:
STR0200I STROBE MEASUREMENT ENDED

Message Notation
Lowercase italicized words represent the names of variables. Brackets, braces, and vertical bars denote phrases that may or may not appear in the actual message: Brackets [ ] enclose expressions that appear only conditionally. Braces { } enclose alternative expressions (only one of which appears in the message), separated by vertical bars |.

Return Codes and Severity Codes


Unless otherwise indicated, the measurement task sets the job step return code to the value provided by the target program when it terminates. The Strobe session management facility, measurement facility, and the reporting facility set a return code to match the severity code in each message. Note: A return code in a message from a LIST or DELETE command issued through Session Requester reflects the highest return code associated with any of the requests targeted by that command.

Severity codes and the accompanying return codes are as follows: Severity Return Code Code I W 0 4 Meaning Informative message: occurs during normal operation. Warning message: indicates the operation is performed, but some information may be missing or some default options may be used. Conditional error message: indicates a user or system error. The requested action is performed and Strobe continues processing, but information in the Performance Profile reports may not be complete. Error message: indicates a user or system error. The requested action is not performed. If the measurement task issues such a message, it terminates sampling, but the target program execution continues.

Overview

1-3

Severity Return Code Code S 12

Meaning Severe error: indicates a user or system error. Strobe terminates processing.

ABEND Codes
This manual references Strobe abnormal termination (ABEND) codes, which appear when Strobe terminates without completing the measurement session. Chapter 4, Abend Codes Returned by Strobe includes a table of ABEND codes, their reason codes, and an explanation of why the ABEND occurred.

Viewing Message Descriptions with Strobe/ISPF


You can view an explanation of an error message by entering .M in the COMMAND or OPTION field on the panel displaying the message. In addition, you can view an explanation of any message from any panel by entering .M scnn (where scnn is the message key) in the OPTION field on the panel, or by selecting OPTION M from the Strobe Options menu. The messages and the accompanying explanations, system actions, and the recommended response are in Chapter 3, Messages Produced by Strobe. To view all the messages for the current request, enter .CVM in the OPTION field or select OPTION L from the Strobe Options menu. Strobe/ISPF presents all the messages in a dataset for you to browse.

Error Recovery and Reporting


This manual provides a recommended course of action for problems that a user can correct. If the error involves installation defaults, dynamic allocation problems, or other system problems, you should contact the Strobe system programmer. For additional system information, see the Strobe User Guide.

Strobe Messages Guide

System Action: Strobe deletes the erroneous mapping data and continues measuring. Strobe will produce a Performance Profile but some attribution data in the Profile may be incomplete. User Response: Either remove the incorrect version from the library search path, or use the STRBLIB option to put the correct version at the top of the search path. STR0308W TOO MANY LOAD LIBRARIES SPECIFIED - ONLY 16 USED You specified more than 16 load libraries on the STRBLIB operand. Strobe uses only the first 16 load libraries specified. None required.

Explanation: System Action: User Response: STR0309W

TWO OR MORE ATTACHES IN AN INTERVAL - TASKLIB MAY BE LOST

Explanation: The TASKLIB pointers for ATTACHES became overlaid because either the user program issued ATTACHES rapidly or Strobe used a very long sampling interval. Because Strobe only has storage to record one TASKLIB pointer for an ATTACH during a sampling interval, if multiple ATTACHES occur the latest will overlay the previous one. If an ATTACH that was overlaid specified a unique TASKLIB, reference to it will be lost. In this case some module mapping information may be missing. System Action: Strobe continues processing, but some module mapping information may be missing. User Response: If significant module mapping data is lost, resubmit the measurement with a shorter sampling interval. If this is not successful, you can force the identification of the missing TASKLIB by resubmitting the measurement request and specifying TASKLIB as a STRBLIB parameter. STR0310W MODULE modname HAS SCATTER ATTRIBUTE A load module has the scatter attribute.

Explanation:

System Action: Strobe continues sampling normally. However, the Strobe Performance Profile produced from the measurement session will be incomplete. The Program Section Usage Summary report will show execution time data for the entire module only, not in detail for its control sections. The Program Usage by Procedure report will show only one unnamed section for the module and no procedure names. User Response: Research whether you can relink the module without the scatter attribute. If you can, then remeasure afterwards. STR0311I JSTCB JLB POINTS TO INVALID DCB

Produced by a version of Natural that the Strobe Natural Indexer does not support at the current maintenance level. System Action: The Strobe Natural Indexer terminates and may not produce a map dataset.

User Response: For conditions 1 and 2, refer to the Strobe for Adabas/Natural option manual for information on procedures available to produce Natural program listings suitable for input to the Strobe Natural Indexer. For condition 3, notify the Strobe system programmer. STR1203E STRXNAT - SOURCE LISTING INCOMPLETE

Explanation: The input listing dataset (the LISTING DD statement) has reached an end-offile condition prior to returning to the main Natural program from a nested (included) program. One (but not the only) possible cause of this is an out-of-space condition that was received while producing the listing dataset (the CMPRINT DD statement in the UNLOAD step of either the STROXN or STROXNAT procedures). System Action: The Strobe Natural Indexer terminates and may produce an incomplete map dataset. The Strobe Performance Profile will display incomplete indexing information. User Response: Verify that the input listing dataset contains the Natural end-of-listing indicator (***** End of List *****) in either the last or next-to-last line of the dataset. If the

Explanation: AutoStrobe detected abnormal behavior in the designated program running under the designated job and either initiated a Strobe measurement of that program or defined a warning that can be displayed by the user. A text description of this condition appears on the Measurement Session Data report for the measurement. The conditions for which AutoStrobe will initiate a measurement include:

EXCESSIVE ELAPSED TIME EXCESSIVE TCB TIME ABNORMAL I/O ACTIVITY.


System Action: AutoStrobe processing continues. AutoStrobe has put the request associated with the measurement in the held-ms (measurement) or held-wn (warning) state. As a result, subsequent executions of the program (under the job and step names in the request) will not be monitored until the user releases the request via Strobe/ISPF User Response: If the measurement was initiated, generate a Performance Profile for it, analyze it, and correct the measured program. To cause AutoStrobe to resume monitoring of the program, release the measurement via Strobe/ISPF to change its status from held to pending. If changes to the measured program invalidate the basis data on which the measurement was based, you many want to delete that basis data. This action causes AutoStrobe to collect new basis data on the first 10 subsequent monitorings of the program. STR1916E AUTOSTROBE HAS BEEN TERMINATED, REASON CODE = xxx

Explanation: Map dataset information is compiled for the control section csectname, but this control section does not appear in the sample dataset. The following are possible causes:

The control section exhibited less than the baseline percentage of execution samples specified with the BASELINE operand (default 2). A library in the STEPLIB, JOBLIB, or STRBLIB data definition statements does not have the correct name. The named library or libraries do not contain the named module. The named module is resident in the link pack area and your Strobe system programmer has not configured your Strobe system to obtain data from link pack area libraries. The job step was cancelled or timed out, preventing mapping. The control section contained one or more modules that were loaded with the Dynamic LPALIB Facility.
System Action: The Reporter continues execution but does not process Indexer data for the control section. User Response: Check the BASELINE field on the Measurement Session Data report. If the BASELINE field does not appear on the report, Strobe used the default baseline. Check that the map dataset supplied to the Reporter is the proper map of the correct program. It must be the map dataset of the program whose execution samples appear in the sample dataset. Check for error messages produced by the measurement task that may indicate problems processing the load library. If the measurement task is unable to map the load module, the Reporter cannot accept the Indexer data.

Explanation: The Reporter found fewer than 100 execution samples in the sample dataset. The measurement session was too short or the initial sampling rate was too low. System Action: Strobe produces a Performance Profile but the CPU reports are not statistically significant. User Response: Rerun the measurement session, and specify a smaller estimate of minimum run time or a larger target sample size or both. STR2113E FEWER THAN 100 SAMPLES - NO PROFILE PRODUCED

Explanation: Fewer than 100 samples are in the sample dataset. The measurement session was too short or the initial sampling rate was too low. System Action: Strobe does not produce a Performance Profile.

User Response: Rerun the measurement session, and specify a smaller estimate of minimum run time or a larger target sample size or both. STR2114W TOO MANY SETS OF WORK LOAD MANAGER INFORMATION Insufficient storage was available to build a table of all Workload Manager

UNSUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF SORT. SORT RETURN CODE=rc

Explanation: The installation-supplied sort/merge program did not complete execution successfully. The return code returned by the sort/merge program is rc. System Action: Strobe does not produce a Performance Profile.

User Response: Review the messages produced by the sort/merge program to determine the cause of the problem. STR2118S SAMPLE DATA SET IMPROPERLY FORMATTED

Explanation: The samples in the sample dataset are out of sequence, probably because the Reporter has been executed before the dataset has been closed by the measurement task. System Action: User Response: STR2120S Strobe does not produce a Performance Profile. Ensure that the dataset is closed and resubmit the job.

INSUFFICIENT SPACE ON WORK FILE The Reporter SYSUT1 dataset used all of its allocated direct access extents. Strobe does not produce a Performance Profile. Rerun the Reporter with a larger space allocation for the SYSUT1 dataset.

Explanation: System Action: User Response: STR2122W NOT AGREE

MAP DATA SET AND LOAD LIBRARY SIZES FOR CONTROL SECTION csectname DO

Explanation: The size of a control section, csectname, as reported by the Indexer in the map dataset, differs from the size the measurement task determined from the load library. System Action: The Reporter uses data in the map dataset, but the assignment of CPU time by procedure in the Strobe Performance Profile may be incorrect. However, some compiler options (such as the COBOL STATE option) extend a control section beyond the length reflected in the object code listing the Indexer processed. When such an option is in effect, this message will appear, but the Performance Profile will still be valid. User Response: Ensure that you compiled and indexed the same source that was compiled to produce the measured program load module for the program. Ensure also that you used the same compiler options. To be sure, compile, index, and link edit the program again, and then perform another measurement session.

IF MULTIPLE INSTANCES OF A MODULE HAVE BEEN MEASURED, THEIR ACTIVITY IS COMBINED. Explanation: The Reporter detected an inconsistency between a module found during the sampling process and module mapping information obtained from a load library.

Strobe issues this message if the module that should have been mapped resides in a library that was not the first library in which a different module with the same name was found. For example, Strobe issues this message when third-party software loads modules in a manner other than that specified by IBM standards. The order in which Strobe searches libraries to obtain module mapping data is specified in the Strobe User Guide.
System Action: The Reporter discards all mapping data and shows the locations of activity relative to the base address of the module instead of to the start of individual sections within the module. User Response: If a copy of the module that should have been mapped resides in a library later in the search order than the library in which Strobe found a different module with the same name, then specify the appropriate library in the Strobe request. Otherwise, notify the Strobe system programmer. STR2133S Sample dataset is invalid

User Response: STR2143W Notify the Strobe system programmer.

NO ATTRIBUTION DATA FOR SQL IN sqlname

Explanation: Strobe for DB2 identified SQL procedure or query sqlname as executing in the target address space, but it did not attribute any CPU or wait activity to that procedure or query. System Action: Strobe produces a Performance Profile, but information for the procedure or query will be missing. User Response: Rerun the measurement session and specify a larger target sample size.

STR2144W DURING MEASUREMENT THERE WAS AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME DURING WHICH STROBE COULD NOT SAMPLE Explanation: Strobe was unable to sample consistently during the measurement session. Because Strobe runs under a task while measuring, certain events may prevent Strobe from sampling. For example, Strobe may attempt to sample during a non interruptible unit of work, such as a type 1 SVC. Strobe does not report activity during such events, but the rest of the measurement continues to be valid. This message appears when Strobe cannot identify activity for a significant percentage of the time. System Action: Strobe produces a Performance Profile, but it may be incomplete.

User Response: Rerun the measurement session, requesting 10,000 samples. If you continue to receive the message, use other tools such as GTF trace to identify the activity that Strobe cannot.

MQ implant successful at sample #nnnnnnnn

Explanation: Strobe detected MQ activity at sample #nnnnnnnn and successfully implanted its MQ intercept.

The sample # at which the MQ implant was made is typically low for online systems such as CICS or IMS because MQ will already be active in these regions. The implant sample # for batch MQ is typically higher depending on the amount of work performed by your batch procedure before MQ activity is initiated and MQ modules are loaded into virtual storage. Strobe wont implant its intercept until MQ activity is detected.
System Action: Strobe continues processing and MQ data collection is initiated. User Response: The MQ API calls are typically very fast, so it is possible for an MQ call to be initiated and completed between Strobe samples. If that is the case, Strobe will not see this activity and you will not see this message. Try increasing your sampling rate so that Strobe has a chance to sample the MQ activity.

If your reports appear to be missing a significant amount of MQ data and the sample # at which data collection started was high, this may be an indication of something wrong in your environment. Check your Strobe report for other performance related issues. Otherwise, no response is required.

The unexpected response may have indicated a time out due to poor performance. But, if the problem persists, notify the Strobe system programmer. STR6812I string address offset data Strobe writes this message to the Strobe log in certain diagnostic situations. Strobe continues processing. None required.

Explanation: System Action: User Response: STR6813W

QRE DATA AND SRE DATA ARE INCONSISTENT FOR REQUEST rrrr

Explanation: The request element for request rrrr is not active. The Strobe request element (SRE), however, identified this request as active. This message appears in the Strobe log only. System Action: Strobe is unable to process the updates to the request because the measurement session for that request has already begun. User Response: None required.

STR6814E COMMUNICATION FAILURE, MESSAGE BROADCAST IS INCOMPLETE - OUT-OF-SYNC CONDITION MAY EXIST Explanation: Strobe sent a message to other members of a Strobe-XCF group. At least one of the members, however, did not receive the message. In some cases, this message indicates that the requests are out of synchronization with other members of a Strobe-XCF group. System Action: At this time, Strobe is not able to determine if the system is still active.

User Response: Notify the Strobe system programmer. The system programmer can determine whether the system is still active by checking the Strobe log, or by issuing the SHOW MEMBERS command. If the system has terminated, no response is necessary. If the system is still active, however, the requests on that system are potentially out of synchronization. In this case, the system programmer must either issue the RESYNC command or stop and restart Strobe. For more information, see the Strobe Installation and Customization Guide. STR6815E END REQUEST TO SYSTEM sysname FAILED

Explanation: Strobe attempted to send a message to another member of the Strobe-XCF group, but was not able to deliver the message to the group member (system sysname). System Action: Strobe is not able to send the message to system sysname. This message is preceded by message STR6806E, which contains the return and reason codes for the crosssystem coupling facility (XCF) that failed (IXCMSGO). Strobe also provides additional diagnostic information for this situation by writing message STR6812I to the Strobe log. User Response: Notify the Strobe system programmer. The system programmer can determine the cause of the failure by referencing the return and reason codes contained in STR6806E, and by viewing the STR6812I message associated with this request in the Strobe log. STR6816W STROBE UNABLE TO PROCESS REQUEST rrrr, DUE TO error

Explanation: Strobe is unable to continue processing request rrrr because it encountered the error identified in error. error can be:

STR6937E NUMBER OF GROUP ELEMENTS NOW EXCEEDS MAX REQUESTS. GROUP groupname CANNOT BE SUBMITTED Explanation: The total number of request group elements in the request group groupname exceeds the maximum number of allowable request group elements. This number is defined as the maximum number of requests allowed on the system. System Action: User Response: Strobe cannot submit the request group for processing. Delete some of the request group elements in request group groupname.

STR6938W SEQUENCE NUMBER EXCEEDS 999 FOR GROUP groupname - GROUP MUST BE RESEQUENCED Explanation: You attempted to add request elements to group groupname. However, the sequence numbers for the request group have already reached 999. As you add elements to a group, Strobe assigns a unique sequence number to each request element. The maximum sequence number that Strobe will assign is 999. You cannot add to the group once Strobe has assigned this number. The sequence numbers associated with each request element within a group do not change even if you delete request elements from the group. For Strobe to supply new sequence numbers, you must first delete some request elements and then copy the group to a new group name. Strobe will then assign new sequence numbers to the request elements. This message is followed by STR6939W. System Action: Strobe will not process the request.

User Response: Delete the unwanted request elements from group groupname and follow the instructions in STR6939W. STR6939W COPY GROUP groupname TO A NEW GROUP

IMPLANT FOR SCHEDULED REQUEST FAILED - REQUEST MARKED COMPLETE

Explanation: Strobe attempted to run a scheduled Add Active measurement request at the dates, times, number of retry intervals, and number of retry attempts that you specified, but Strobe could not find the specified job. Although the term implant refers to the Strobe measurement request in the Strobe address space, this message could be generated by any of the following reasons:

The job that Strobe was to measure never became active. Strobe was not running in the address space. The implant for the measurement was never established.
System Action: Strobe changes the status of the current element from deferred to completed. Strobe was unable to measure this element in the group, however, it will attempt to measure other elements in the group according to the submissions and retry intervals that you specified. User Response: None required. You cannot produce a Performance Profile from the request (even though it is identified as completed) because there is no measurement data.

STR9560E INCOMPLETE PLAN_TABLE DEFINED FOR AUTHORIZATION ID authID OR SQL STATEMENT CONTAINS CORRELATED REFERENCE THAT IS NOT DEFINED IN THE SQL STATEMENT BEING EXPLAINED Explanation: The instance of PLAN_TABLE defined for authorization ID authID does not contain all the columns required by Strobe SQL analysis. System Action: User Response: Processing for the current Profile stops. See the Response for each Scenario below.

Scenario 1: User has selected USE SELECTED PLAN_TABLE ROWS =Y and CREATOR ID=XXX where XXX is the prefix of the existing plan table. For example, if

3-244

Strobe Messages Guide

DB2P.PLAN_TABLE is what the customer uses, they should specify DB2P as the CREATOR ID. Problem: If the STR9560E error occurs, this indicates the customer is using a PLAN_TABLE that is back-leveled in DB2 support. For example, the Strobe measurement could have been for DB2 Version 7.1. so SQLAF expects a 7.1-formatted PLAN_TABLE. However, the existing PLAN_TABLE does not have the additional columns that have added for DB2 V7.1 Instead, the PLAN_TABLE may still be in DB2 V6.1 or V5.1 format. SQLAF will fail when it does the SELECT for that statement because the columns may be missing from that PLAN_TABLE. Response: Either DROP the instance of PLAN_TABLE defined for authID and let Strobe SQL analysis create a new instance during a subsequent Profile request, or ALTER the PLAN_TABLE so that it includes the complete set of columns that you can define for PLAN_TABLE. Scenario 2: User has selected DYNAMIC EXPLAIN WHERE USE EXISTING PLAN_TABLE ROWS=N, CREATOR ID should be blank and AUTH ID may be specified but isnt required. Problem: If the STR9560E error occurs, this indicates the customer is using a PLAN_TABLE that is back-leveled in DB2 support. Even for DYNAMIC EXPLAIN, If a user is dynamically generating EXPLAIN for a SQL statement into a PLAN_TABLE that already exists, SQLAF will process cleanly on the EXPLAIN, but will fail when it attempts to select that row, just as in Scenario 1. Refer to the IBM manuals IBM DATABASE 2 SQL Reference and IBM DATABASE 2 Administration Guide, Volume III for additional information regarding the definition of PLAN_TABLE. Response: Either DROP the instance of PLAN_TABLE defined for authID and let Strobe SQL analysis create a new instance during a subsequent Profile request, or ALTER the PLAN_TABLE so that it includes the complete set of columns that you can define for PLAN_TABLE. Scenario 3: The STR9560E message is preceded by an STR9531I DB2 MESSAGES BEGIN: SQLCODE= -206 correlation-name.column IS NOT A COLUMN OF AN INSERTED TABLE, UPDATED TABLE, OR ANY TABLE IDENTIFIED IN A FROM CLAUSE, OR IS NOT THE COLUMN OF THE TRIGGERING TABLE OF A TRIGGER and STR9530E EXEC IMMEDIATE FAILED error message for an EXPLAIN SQL statement. The SQL statement being explained by SQLAF was captured from a Trigger that was executed during a Strobe DB2 measurement session. The correlation-name can be either a DB2 correlated reference or table identifier found in a REFERENCING clause for a CREATE TRIGGER. Refer to the DB2 SQL Reference manual for the complete CREATE TRIGGER syntax. Problem: The SQL in the EXPLAIN statement contains a reference to a column name using a correlation name or table identifier that is defined in the REFERENCING clause of a CREATE TRIGGER. Because the reference is defined outside the actual SQL statement being explained, DB2 is not able to determine what object the correlation name or table identifier refers to. Response: There is no workaround that allows the EXPLAIN statement to be successfully processed. The SQLAF processing will continue, but no information (EXPLAIN information, Statistics, Observations, etc.) will be generated for this SQL statement.

INCOMPLETE FUNCTION_TABLE DEFINED FOR AUTHORIZATION ID authID

Explanation: The instance of FUNCTION_TABLE defined for authorization ID authID does not contain all the columns required by Strobe SQL analysis. System Action: The user-defined function section of the Translation report will not appear.

User Response: Either DROP the instance of FUNCTION_TABLE defined for authID and let Strobe SQL analysis create a new instance during a subsequent Profile request, or ALTER the FUNCTION_TABLE so that it includes the complete set of columns that you can define for FUNCTION_TABLE.

Refer to the IBM manuals IBM DATABASE 2 SQL Reference and IBM DATABASE 2 Administration Guide, Volume III for additional information regarding the definition of FUNCTION_TABLE.

objecttype identifies objectname as either a package or a DBRM. mfstmtnumber is the SQL statement number assigned by Strobe. srcstmtnumber is the SQL statement number assigned by the DB2 precompiler that EXPLAIN inserts into the QUERYNO column of table PLAN_TABLE. EXPLAIN(YES) was not specified when objectname was bound into plan planname. The resolved authorization ID does not qualify the correct instance of FUNCTION_TABLE.
System Action: The user-defined function section of the Translation report will not appear.

User Response: Rebind the plan with the correct authorization ID and EXPLAIN(YES) if the user_defined function section of the Translation report is desired. STR9571I NO EXISTING FUNCTION_TABLE FOUND FOR AUTHORIZATION ID authID

Chapter 4. Abend Codes Returned by Strobe

Chap 4

Measuring with Strobe does not affect the execution of the target program. Strobe causes a measured step to terminate abnormally only when the user program itself has terminated abnormally. When a measurement task module abnormally terminates, Strobe writes abnormal termination information to the sample data set. The session management facility writes abnormal termination data to the Strobe log and to its SYSPRINT data set.

Strobe Programmed Terminations


Under certain circumstances, the measurement task can terminate with a programmed abnormal termination. User programs are not affected. When you receive any of the abnormal termination (ABEND) codes listed below, note the ABEND code number and inform the Strobe system programmer of the problem. ABEND Code 0000 0001 0002-4 0002-8 0002-12 0002-16 0003 0100 0101 0103 0322 0522 Reason for the measurement task ABEND Strobe issued an ABEND during measurement initialization Strobe issued an ABEND request to the measurement task The measurement task detected an internal error in the ADB chain.

The measurement task detected an internal error in the ADB chain. The reason code identifies the specific location. The measurement task detected an internal error in the ADB chain. The reason code identifies the specific location. The measurement task detected an internal error in the ADB chain. The release level of the session management facility is earlier than the release level of the measurement task The release level of the measurement task and the release level of the session management facility are incompatible The user attempted to invoke the measurement facility through STRBVPH1 The measurement task used an excessive amount of time there may be a loop in the program The measurement task used an excessive amount of elapsed time there may be a hang in the program

The session management facility also issues ABEND codes. Conditions that can cause these abnormal terminations include: A program that was not part of the Strobe system attempted to use the session management facility.

Strobe Messages Guide

The program being measured damages the measurement task or its working storage (both located in the target programs address space). The operating system malfunctions. The session management facility uses ABEND codes for all programmed ABENDs and shows the ABEND code with the termination message. These codes take the form 6xx. The reason code is represented as the hexadecimal equivalent of the value.
