Basically, your program crashed for some reason, you could say
Something like a missing DASD or the wrong volume names could cause it, or
just an error in programming
At least, that's what I remember it is, and an abend dump is like a core
dump or crash dump on your modern system.
If I'm wrong, please don't hesitate to shoot at the youngster :)
6. Batch the
deck up with the necessary JCL and submit it with any other
tapes, etc. at the I/O desk.
JCL - Job Control Language?
7. Barring problems, a few hours later, your deck, etc. will be delivered
back to your desk with the abend dump that invariably seemed to result.
What is "abend"?
