Your channel initiator job fails with abend EC6 return code FD1D (0000FD1D).
Reason and Solution
FDxx If xx is in the range of X'01' to X'7F', a signal was received causing termination and a dump to be taken. This condition is usually the result of an application programming exception.
Cause This failure occurs when the channel initiator (chin chinit) job times out.
Solution Specify TIME=1440 in the JOB or EXEC statement.
This setting gives a job or step an unlimited amount of processor time.

Solution Specify TIME=1440 in the JOB or EXEC statement.
This setting gives a job or step an unlimited amount of processor time.
The TIME parameter on the JOB or EXEC statement specifies the maximum length of time a job or step is to use the processor. Two benefits of the TIME parameter are:
- The system prints the actual processor time used by the job or step in the messages in the job log.
- When a job or step exceeds the amount of time coded on the TIME parameter, the system abnormally terminates it or gives control to an installation exit routine established through System Management Facilities (SMF). Thus, the TIME value limits the processor time wasted by a looping program.
By coding TIME=1440 or TIME=NOLIMIT, the TIME parameter can instead be used to give a job or step an unlimited amount of time. Specifically, the system allows a step to remain in a continuous wait state for an unlimited time, rather than the time limit established through SMF. However, if TIME=1440 is specified on the JOB statement, any TIME values on an EXEC statement and any default TIME values will be nullified. All steps within the job will have unlimited time, as with TIME=1440 or TIME=NOLIMIT.
