0404
Explanation
The external CICS interface module DFHXCPRH needed to take an MVS SDUMP for an earlier reported problem. However the error has occurred too early in EXCI initialization for EXCI dump services to be available.
System action
Module DFHXCPRH issues an MVS abend with abend code 0404 which invokes its ESTAE routine from which a SYSMDUMP is taken instead of an SDUMP to capture the earlier reported problem.
User response
Examine the SYSMDUMP to determine the cause of the earlier reported problem.
An attempt to format the SYSMDUMP produced with the CICS IPCS dump formatter does not produce any formatted output for the job because the error occurred too early in EXCI initialization for there to be any control blocks.
