Co:Z Batch Returning Override RC=12

[jupam21]

When using COZBATCH a z/OS Job is completing with the following
messages:

CoZBatchÝN¨: Copyright (C) 2005-2009 Dovetailed Technologies LLC. All right
CoZBatchÝN¨: version 1.5.2 2009-12-08
CoZBatchÝI¨: executing progname=login-shell="-/bin/sh"
CoZBatchÝI¨: process rc=exitcode=0
CoZBatchÝI¨: returning override rc=12
============================================
The last message 'returning override rc=12' is causing a Job completion code of '12'. This message is undocumented can you tell me what is causing it?

Thanks in advance

The override return code is specified using "$?=nn" in the PARM= string. Did you do this? Please post your JCL and we'll take a look.

Yes, I checked the users JCL and they had the following coded:

PARM='/$?=12'


Thanks

Following up on JUPAM21's question,

We need the cozbatch job to give us a fixed return code of 12 if there are any errors (syntax errors or logical errors) in the SFTP process...
If there were no errors, and the SFTP process was succesful, we want the job to have a return code of 0.

I've used the '//PSTEP01 EXEC PGM=COZBATCH,PARM='/$?=12'' in
my jcl, but the issue is that I'm getting a RC of 12 all the time from the job. Any thoughts ?


Thanks..

Just check the exit code from cozsftp and if not zero, then exit with the return code that you want. The Co:Z Batch exit code will be used as the return code.

Example:

# insert after the cozsftp command:
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
exit 12
