<div><p>Authorized program analysis reports (APARs) are used to find out
|
|
what problems have been identified that could result in potential problems.
|
|
You can view APARs by component, by release, or see the full list.</p>
|
|
<p>An <dfn class="term">authorized program analysis report (APAR)</dfn> is a request
|
|
for the correction of a defect in a current release of an IBM-supplied program.
|
|
It contains information about the problem from the problem record, any associated
|
|
spooled files, the error log entry, and any available vital product data that
|
|
exists for the licensed program. Vital product data is a structured description
|
|
of a device or program. In this case the vital product data includes:</p>
|
|
<ul><li>The name of the licensed program, Licensed Internal Code group, or product</li>
|
|
<li>The release and modification, and the program module names</li>
|
|
<li>The national languages selected</li>
|
|
<li>Other information can be included about the failing program.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>One type of APAR is an <dfn class="term">information APAR</dfn>. Information APARs
|
|
are created when there is a need to provide worldwide access to information.
|
|
Typically, information APARs are created to describe pervasive user errors,
|
|
provide recovery actions for non-defect situations, or explain system operation.</p>
