This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Z Software products. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

1.1 Current situation
----------------------
We're debugging our EGL Programs using the STOREDPROCEDURE linkage option for programs that are available on z/OS.
When a program is called remotely, but the load is not found the following error occurs:
The following problem occurred while debugging an EGL program:
egl.core.InvocationException: EGL0150E An error occurred calling the XFAILX program.
Error: EGL2114E An error occured calling a remote program on the host. An error occurred
in program ELACSVD7, function ELACSV-MAIN An error occurred in program ELACSVD7 on
statement number 1 Invocation exception
EGL0002I The error occurred in the locProg program processing the callIt function.
EGL0002I The error occurred in the locProg program processing the callIt function.
This type of exception can be caught in a try/onException block.
Do you want to continue debugging?
1.2 Requested enhancement
--------------------------
We request a more detailed error message/advanced errorcodes/... so that we can more easily detect why the call has failed.
At this moment we can only guess what is causing the call to fail. (Being the module not in the steplib of the Stored Procedure Address Space is only one of the possibilities).
There's no way if distinguishing between a load module not found and other errors.
We wish to have some kind of log on z/OS or error codes that clarify what exactly went wrong during the call.

Due to processing by IBM, this request was reassigned to have the following updated attributes:
Brand - Servers and Systems Software
Product family - Programming Languages
Product - Business Developer
For recording keeping, the previous attributes were:
Brand - Rational
Product family - Design & development
Product - Business Developer
Unfortunately, the EGL runtime does not get any additional information back from the system when this type of error occurs. One thing we can do is to enhance our error message by adding the name of the program that
