Message identifier format
All CICS BAC message identifiers are ten characters long. The first three
characters are always CBK, the product identifier for CICS BAC. The next two
characters identify the program that generated the message. These program
identifiers are not specified in the message documentation and instead are
represented by "xx". The next four characters
are a four digit number that identifies the message. The last character in
the message identifier is the message severity code, as follows:
- I - Information message: No operator action
is required.
- R - Response required message: An event has
occurred that requires an operator response to a previous CICS BAC message displayed
on the console. Operator action is required to enable CICS BAC to continue processing.
- W - Warning message: Unexpected results might
have occurred. You should closely examine any relevant output. Operator action
may be required.
- E - Error message: An unexpected error has
occurred. CICS BAC processing could be negatively affected to the point that
it can no longer perform its functions. Operator action is most likely required
to correct the error and allow CICS BAC to function correctly.
