IBM DOS/VS Error Codes

IBM DOS/VS COBOL has a form of the USE statement in the DECLARATIVES section that is not recognized by ACUCOBOL-GT: 

USE AFTER STANDARD ERROR PROCEDURE ON file-name GIVING
       data-name-1 [data-name-2]

This form is accepted by ACUCOBOL-GT when the -Cv option is in effect.

When an error handler introduced by this statement is invoked, the runtime puts special error codes into the eight-byte data item data-name-1. Each byte is loaded with 1s if the corresponding error condition is true. If the corresponding error condition is false, ACUCOBOL-GT loads it with zeros.

Here are the IBM conditions:

byte indexed direct sequential
1 (leftmost) DASD error data check in count parity error
2 wrong record length wrong record length wrong record length
3 prime data full no room found
4 cylinder index too small data check in key or data  
5 master index too small    
6 overflow area full    
7 no EOF record written in prime data area    

This is how the preceding error conditions are mapped into the conditions detected by ACUCOBOL-GT:
