Environment

Release:
Component: OPSMVS

Cause

This return code 103 means:

• 103
  LOAD failed for the SYSVIEWE API module.

It occurs because the SYSVIEW API modules are not available in the environment where the OPS/REXX program is executing.
 

Resolution

The SYSVIEW load library must be accessible via LNKLST or STEPLIB in the environment where the OPS/REXX program is executing.
For example, if the program is executing under a OPSOSF server the SYSVIEW library must be added to the STEPLIB concatenation of the OSF server or to LNKLST.
