Use TASK SYSGEN if online, or program RHDCSGEN if batch. Sign on to the dictionary where the System definition is maintained: "SIGNON DICTIONARY SYSTEM.", for example. Enter: "DISPLAY SYSTEM 123." where 123 is the number of the system being checked. Scroll through the returned text until "CHKUSER TASK" is found. If the associated value is not the organization-defined number of subtasks that detect abnormally terminated batch external request units, this is a finding.
