The CICS® Service Flow Runtime provides
an error log facility that captures application errors. Application
errors are those errors that the Adapter service detects in the server runtime
environment.
Error handling in the
CICS Service Flow Runtime is
configurable as follows:
- If you define and enable the CMAQ transient data queue (TDQ), the error
log facility writes all of the application errors to that defined queue.
If you have not defined and enabled CMAQ, the error log facility
attempts to write the error message CIA08009E to the operator.
Errors that occur outside of the control of the Adapter service
are not written to the Error file. For example, the following types of errors
would not be written to the Error file:
- Errors in the WebSphere® MQ or CICS environments that occur outside of
the CICS SFR environment.
These errors would be logged within the WebSphere MQ or CICS environments.
- Errors in CICS applications.
- Errors in WebSphere MQ-enabled
applications that are run by being invoked by a WebSphere MQ server adapter in the
Adapter service.
- Errors in target DPL programs that are run because of being invoked by
a DPL server adapter in the Adapter service.
