CICS® ONC RPC messages have identifiers of the form DFHRPnnnn, where nnnn are four numeric characters. These numbers indicate which of the CICS ONC RPC components generated the message, as shown in CICS Messages and Codes.
Messages are generated for end users by the connection manager. They are sent to the CICS ONC RPC message transient data queue CRPO, or the terminal user, or both, depending on the event that is being reported. If you define CRPO as an indirect destination for CSMT, the CICS ONC RPC messages appear in CSMT. Some messages are sent to the console.
When CICS ONC RPC issues a message as a result of an error, it also makes an exception trace entry. CICS ONC RPC also generates information messages, for instance during enable processing and disable processing.
CICS ONC RPC messages are supplied in English, Kanji, and Chinese. The CICS message editing utility can be used to translate them into other languages supported by CICS.
You can use utilities supplied as part of CICS to update your base CMAC file with the CICS ONC RPC CMAC file.
The CICS ONC RPC abend codes are listed in CICS Messages and Codes.
