ERZ016050W

Logical unit of work for transaction 'transId' has been backed out; Distributed Transaction Service (TRAN) reason 'abendReason'

Explanation

A logical unit of work for transaction 'transId' was backed out by CICS. This message is produced only when the logical unit of work is backed out and there is no commit in progress. The message is not produced when CEMT TASK PURGE or FORCEPURGE is used on the transaction as in this case message ERZ1663W is produced instead. It can possibly be caused by the failure of CICS Toolkit components, such as Structured File Servers or LOG servers, or by the failure of other Distributed Transaction Processing (DTP) clients, such as relational database managers, during the logical unit of work. Note that this message is produced whenever EXEC CICS SYNCPOINT ROLLBACK is issued as a normal action by a CICS application program.

System action

CICS continues, but it is likely that further messages follow to terminate the transaction.

User response

Check that all Structured File Servers, log servers and Distributed Transaction Processing (DTP) clients are still running. Restart any that have failed. If the problem is anything other than one of those categorized as a 'Client-Specified Abort' and the problem persists, contact your support organization.
