AXSA


    Explanation
      The CICS security control task could not complete because a necessary step failed. The task has done some essential recovery operations and abnormally terminated itself with code AXSA.

    

    System action
      CICS writes a transaction dump for the security control restart task.

      CICS sends messages to the console, one to identify the error detected by the security control task, and, if the error occurred during initialization, one to say that security initialization or CEMT PERFORM SECURITY REBUILD has failed. A third message follows either to say that CICS has terminated abnormally with a dump, or to ask you to reply GO or CANCEL. Depending on the nature of the original error, you may see messages from some other system component (for example, an access method).

    

    User response
      First, if CICS has requested a response, you must reply. If you reply 'GO', CICS continues processing, but without support for the external security manager. CICS security still operates. If you reply 'CANCEL', CICS terminates abnormally with a dump.

      Use the messages and dumps to find out the cause of the failure.
