if changing the RPG is possible would this be a good place to use the "on-exit" https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.3?topic=codes-exit-exit

you could set indicators change return variables, etc.
was also thinking about "on-error" but not sure what is going on in the program.

I have a CL program that calls a bunch of RPG programs.

The calls are in the form:

    CALL FOO
    MONMSG     MSGID(CEE9901) EXEC(DO)
    SNDMSG     MSG('We experienced a problem with the +
                  FOO program, and are skipping the rest +
                  of this run.') TOMSGQ(QSYSOPR FROBOZZ)
    GOTO       CMDLBL(SKIPTHIS)

Normally, this works quite well. But today, we experienced an anomaly, such that we would like very much for the CL program to respond differently if a dump is taken on one of the called RPG programs.

I will note that when an *expected* error occurs, the RPG program will respond with a SETON of indicators H1 and LR, followed by a RETURN. The *unexpected* errors *don't* have an explicit SETON of H1. Can I maybe use that?
