System Completion Code S222

What does System Completion Code S222 mean in Assembly / HLASM?

The operator or an authorized TSO/E user canceled the job or address space, typically without requesting a dump, which is why one is not normally produced. This is a deliberate termination rather than a program error — a duplicate jobname or a subsystem exit rejecting a job at submission is reported through different mechanisms entirely, not this code.

Condition

The operator or an authorized TSO/E user canceled the job or address space, typically without requesting a dump, which is why one is not normally produced. This is a deliberate termination rather than a program error — a duplicate jobname or a subsystem exit rejecting a job at submission is reported through different mechanisms entirely, not this code.

Fix

Check the job log and console or SDSF output around the time of the cancel for the specific CANCEL command or the reason it was issued, and coordinate with operations if the cancellation was unexpected.
