A List of IMS DL/I Return Codes with short explanations.
IMS DL/I Return Codes | Explanations |

A7 | ISRT function number of messages added exceeds maximum allowed |
A8 | ISRT function issued to a response alternate PCB must follow ISRT to I/O PCB and these statements are reversed |
A9 | ISRT function message to response alternate PCB ignored because SAMETRM=YES |
