Error description
An IMS Connect Userexit is written in COBOL and has an assembler stub that initializes a LE runtime environment for subroutines (function code 3) when called by IMS CONNECT with the 'INIT' function code, calls the COBOL routine when called with any function code and terminates the LE enclave when called with 'TERM'. This works fine with COBOL V4, but COBOL V5 gets a S0C4 ABEND.
Local fix
As a temporary workaround, if none of the LE programs running in the CEEPIPI environment is AMODE(24), user can add the ALL31(ON) runtime option to the CEEPIPI INIT_SUB call to bypass the problem.
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Enterprise COBOL V5+ users running under * * IMS with ALL31(OFF). * * * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Runtime ABEND0C4. Enterprise COBOL V5+ * * programs running under IMS with the * * ALL31(OFF) runtime option may * * encounter an 0C4 ABEND during LE * * enclave initialization * * * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF. * * * **************************************************************** During LE enclave initialization, the Enterprise COBOL V5+ runtime unconditionally switched the PSW key when the ALL31(OFF) runtime option is in effect. The key switching is only necessary under CICS, and normally benign under batch.
Problem conclusion
The Enterprise COBOL V5+ runtime is corrected to only switch the PSW key when running under CICS.
Temporary fix
