Monitoring the EDT session with monitoring job variables

EDT execution can be monitored with a BS2000 job variable.

/START-EDTU MONJV=jvname

If a monitoring job variable is specified when EDT is started then this is filled with a value when EDT terminates.

The value of the job variable consists of

• a 3-byte status display,

• a 4-byte return code display,

The following table indicates the values which EDT may assign to the job variable.

Error class	Termination	Status indicator	Return code	Spin-off mechanism
No message Note Function error Syntax error	Normal	$T	0000 1002 1005 1010	No
Interruption	Abnormal by the user	$A	2050	Yes
Fatal Fatal with DUMP Initialization error	Abnormal		2100 2150 3200

The value and meaning of the last 3 digits of the return code correspond to subcode 2 (SC2) of the command return code.
