DFHXS0002 applid A severe error (code X'code') has occurred in module modname.

Explanation

An error has been detected in module modname. The code X'code' is the exception trace point id which uniquely identifies what the error is and where the error was detected.

System action

An exception entry (code X'code' in the message) is made in the trace table. A system dump is taken, unless you have specifically suppressed dumps in the dump table.

CICS continues unless you have specified in the dump table that CICS should terminate. If appropriate, an error return code is sent to the caller of this domain. In this case, CICS could be terminated by the caller (for example, the domain manager, DFHDMDM). A message is issued to this effect.

Message DFHME0116, which contains the symptom string for this problem, is produced.

User response

This indicates a possible error in CICS code. The severity of its impact depends on the importance of the function being executed at the time of the error.

CICS may not have been terminated. If the message occurs once and module modname is not crucial to the running of your CICS system, you may decide to continue to run and bring CICS down at a convenient time to resolve the problem.

If the message recurs or if you cannot run without the full use of module modname, you should bring CICS down in a controlled shutdown.

If you need further assistance from IBM to resolve this problem, see IBM problem support for guidance on how to proceed.
