Under Adabas V7, the ACB (in Additions-1) would display the 2char fieldname in error for things like rsp.code 41. Under V8 CLOGLAYOUT=8, this information is NOT available (as it should be eg. in the ACBXERRB field). Without this information, this will make debugging quite difficult.
More details follow.
Please provide the Format Buffer error data for RSP41 when using ACBX. Prior releases of Adabas using ACB placed the 2-
character field name which caused the RSP41 into the first 2 positions of the Additions-2 field". Refer to the following Adabas
74 example where FB=AA,XX. Offset +0 +4 +8 +C 00000000 0000D3F1 D9E2F4F1 00010029 00000001 …L1RS41… 00000010

important data has been omitted from Adabas 81. The ACBXERRB field is designed to contain the error field name, but is not
included for RSP41. Business Reason: An L1 (READ) command may include a Format Buffer with many fields. If an RSP41 is
returned, indicating that one of these fields is invalid, the customer must examine every field to determine the cause. Prior to
the use of ACBX with Adabas 81, this error information was readily available in the Additions-2 field of the ACB.
