A Correct answer
Explanation

In RPG/400 CHAIN operation, when a record is successfully found, the indicator (typically *IN30 or similar) is set OFF (0). When no record is found, the indicator is set ON (1). This counter-intuitive behavior means ON = failure, OFF = success. This is standard RPG/400 behavior for chain operations.
