RE: Decimal Data Error in COBOL Application

["Peter Dow \(ML\)" <maillist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jack,

Presumably these decimal data errors are going to the QSYSOPR message queue.
You could roll your own monitoring program that would check for these errors
and email or page an on-call person, or there are packages out there that
will do it all.  Check the midrange.com archives for threads like this:

     Look on some ideas for a methodology to capture the name of any program
     that
     might throw a decimal data error and to generate an error message that
     can
     be emailed to the person on duty. These programs are usually running in
     a
     non-attended batch job that executes in the wee hours of the AM. Any
and
     all
     thoughts on the problem will be appreciated.
