You can have as many error processes as you can normal processes - that is, you are limited to
512 processes, subprocesses, startup processes and error processes combined.
The following information is available from within your information process when it is
triggered:
l Job Information variables (%1 to %9)
l The data file as it was before starting the task
l Global variables (which are, of course, available anywhere)
l Aseries of variables containing information about the error, the task that triggered it and
the process that contained it. See "Standard Variables" on page514
Note
Local variables in the process are not sent to error processes, even if the error process has a variable
of the same name.
