Which EIB field can be used for ERROR/EXCEPTION handling?

technology mainframe

  1. EIBRESP1, EIBRESP2

  2. EIBRESP, EIBRESP1

  3. EIBRESP, EIBRESP2

  4. EIBRESP0, EIBRESP1

Show answer
Correct Option: C

AI Explanation

To answer this question, you need to understand the fields related to ERROR/EXCEPTION handling in EIB (EXEC Interface Block).

Option A) EIBRESP1, EIBRESP2 - This option is incorrect because EIBRESP1 and EIBRESP2 are not the correct fields for ERROR/EXCEPTION handling in EIB.

Option B) EIBRESP, EIBRESP1 - This option is incorrect because EIBRESP1 is not the correct field for ERROR/EXCEPTION handling in EIB.

Option C) EIBRESP, EIBRESP2 - This option is correct because both EIBRESP and EIBRESP2 fields can be used for ERROR/EXCEPTION handling in EIB. The EIBRESP field contains the main response code, while the EIBRESP2 field contains additional information related to the error or exception.

Option D) EIBRESP0, EIBRESP1 - This option is incorrect because EIBRESP0 is not the correct field for ERROR/EXCEPTION handling in EIB.

The correct answer is C. This option is correct because both EIBRESP and EIBRESP2 fields can be used for ERROR/EXCEPTION handling in EIB.

How many extents are possible for a sequential file?

technology mainframe

  1. 20 extents on a volume for a sequential file

  2. 26 extents on a volume for a sequential file

  3. 14 extents on a volume for a sequential file

  4. 16 extents on a volume for a sequential file

Show answer
Correct Option: D

AI Explanation

To answer this question, we need to understand what an extent is in the context of a sequential file.

In a sequential file, data is stored in blocks or units called extents. An extent is a contiguous section of storage space on a storage volume. When a sequential file is created, it can be allocated multiple extents to store its data.

The correct answer is D) 16 extents on a volume for a sequential file. This means that a sequential file can have up to 16 extents allocated on a storage volume to store its data.
