Messages and Codes

This documentation contains a description of error messages and response codes for the basic Adabas database management system and the following options or add-on products:

Notes:

  1. Data set names starting with DD are referred to in Adabas manuals with a slash separating the DD from the remainder of the data set name to accommodate VSE data set names that do not contain the DD prefix. The slash is not part of the data set name.
  2. Notation vrs, vr, or v: When used in this documentation, the notation vrs or vr stands for the relevant version of a product. For further information on product versions, see version in the Glossary.
  3. Information about Adabas operator commands, which are often issued in response to a message or code, can be found in the Adabas Operations documentation.

Note that you can also find a message description by looking for the message prefix in the online index.

../graphics/gr_b_sm.gif ADARUN Statement/Parameter Messages The error messages that can result from ADARUN statements and parameters that define the nucleus operating environment.
