- Processing encrypted files 

Encrypted files cannot be accessed in BS2000/OSD < V6.0, they can 
only be displayed and deleted. 

However, in an SPVS network a slave access from within BS2000/OSD 
V6.0 is possible even if BS2000/OSD < V6.0 is running on the mas-

ter system. 
 

- Tape backups with blocks > 32 KB 

In BS2000/OSD < V6.0, processing large tape blocks is rejected. 
 

- In BS2000/OSD < V6.0, the four character mnemonic name is not 
supported for tape devices. Using four character mnemonic names 

can therefore lead to unforeseeable problems.

- Importing Data Pubsets in BS2000/OSD < V6.0 

  *2    Pubsets once imported in BS2000/OSD V6.0 can only be 

  *2    re-imported in BS2000/OSD < V4.0 indirectly, via an import  
  *2    in BS2000/OSD V5.0 or BS2000/OSD V4.0, otherwise the process 

  *2    is cancelled and the message SRM2016 displayed. 
  *2 

Note: For an import in BS2000/OSD V5.0 or BS2000/OSD V4.0 the REP 

  *2 

correction to A0507759 must be in use there. 
 

  *2    Pubsets with an extended catalog (catalog format “extra large”)  
  *2    can no longer be imported in BS2000/OSD < V6.0B, due to the 

  *2    incompatibly modified catalog format.

- Unicode  

  *5 

Files with Unicode character sets cannot be processed in versions 

  *5 

earlier than BS2000/OSD-BC V6.0B (correction level B62).  
 

 

 
General information on generating error documents 

 
To successfully diagnose and eliminate software problems, error 

documents must be generated or saved to the extent required and 
at the earliest possible time. As far as possible, documents for 

the software problems should be provided in file form so that 
they can be processed with diagnostic tools. 

 
In the case of reproducible errors you should describe exactly 

how the error can be reproduced. If possible, you should provide 
procedures, enter jobs, execution logs etc. so that the error 

situation can be reproduced. 
 

Information on the system environment 

 

In addition to the error documents, the following general 
information is important for error diagnosis: 

- operating system version number and revision level of 
  BS2000/OSD-BC (loader version and any modifications in 

  BS2000) 
- version numbers of any subsystems, OSD-BC version-independent 

  products or TU programs contributing to the problem together 
  with their correction levels or REP files 

- information as to which system exits were active 
- information on the connected hardware peripherals
