    ****************************************************************
    The caching logic for maintaining memory pointers does not
    work correctly on iseries systems. Under some conditions, a
    user program can get a machine check for a pointer not set.
    Also, under some conditions, a call to one of the VGN
    runtime modules will also fail with a machine check for a
    pointer not set. This problem is in both the generator side
    and the runtime side.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The fixtest is available and is to be applied to the
    generator and another zip file contains the replacement
    iseries runtime, which needs to be installed, by following
    the instructions in the egl manuals.
    

Temporary fix
