CMS Snapshot Analysis - Run Analyzer - Crash - Mainframe with Core CAST AIP - The analysis has not ended correctly Error code 2

 When we run the analysis of PL1 the analysis crashes with the below error as shown in the attached screen shot

 The analysis has not ended correctly (Error code 2)

1. Below is the step-by-step scenario leading to the problem:
2. Package and deliver the source code.
3. Accept the delivery and set it as current version.
4. Run the analysis for the Mainframe analysis unit. 

The impact of the problem on the analysis or the dashboard is: The analysis crash in between and the analysis result would not be as expected on the dashboard.

To fix the problem, proceed as follows:

1. In order to analyze the PLI files you have to determine the column number of the indicated area.

   1. Column number of the indicated area can be found from any PL1 file in the source code as shown below

2. Add the column number to the below settings in CAST-MS
    "Column of Indicator Area" to "2" in CMS Analysis settings
   
3. Run the analysis.

The analysis will run as expected and dashboard will show expected result.
