The agentA program that enables the de-centralized execution of processes (such as deployments) on target systems (computers or business solutions) or a service that provides connectivity to a target system (such as for databases or middleware). An agent is also an object type in the Automation Engine. [Formerly called "Executor."] See also: host logs all errors in the jobAn Automation Engine object type for a process that runs on a target system.'s activation reportA report provides more detailed information about a task's execution or a component. and sets a return codeThe value that represents the result of tasks and script functions. depending on the job execution. The value as of which the job should be canceled can be defined in the Job objectAutomation Engine controlled activities and processes are structured in the form of objects. See also: Task's Runtime tab.
You can also define value ranges for the steps instead of individual return codes. The agent compares the result of a step execution with the defined step list.
z/OS distinguishes three types of return codes: Condition Code, User Abend and System Abend. The agent uses number ranges each of 4 KB in order to assign the return codes.

2000 - 2FFF (8192 to 12287) |
The return code of a Job object must be specified as a decimal number. Thus, User and System Abends must be converted to decimal numbers.
Example:
Return code SB37 indicates a full volume while a file is being written. The corresponding decimal number is 11063.
