Justification: (Why? Non-technical
business case description. Do not reword Detailed Problem
Description from above. What are the benefits to be gained by your
company, and the vendor and others?
Quantify: run time, dollars, manpower, etc. Why should the vendor do this for the customer?)
When any job crashes in a Sarbox audited
installation, senior personnel are notified.
This requires documented explanation and justification for the
abends. Admittedly, the backup
integrity is corrupted. Some kind of
notification, instead of an abend, to that effect becomes self-explained rather
than a PSW and dump listing.
Solution: (Optional)(Desired/undesired elements Note: Making a suggestion may limit a
vendors ability to deliver a solution)
Respond with a message instead of abending or
provide a means to select severity level for an abend much like is available
with SDS's MAXBack. Perhaps a return
code that could be tested for the ESTOP setting, too.
Impact: (Optional) (How
will your company’s business be affected if a solution is not delivered?)
The abend gives the appearance that Faver is
randomly abending and is unreliable.
