DFHDS0001 applid An abend (code aaa/bbbb) has occurred at offset X'offset' in module modname.

Explanation

An abnormal end (abend) or program check has occurred in module modname. This implies that there may be an error in CICS code. Alternatively, unexpected data has been input, or storage has been overwritten.

The code aaa/bbbb is a three digit hexadecimal MVS code (if applicable), followed by a four digit alphanumeric CICS code. The MVS code is a system completion code (for example, 0C1 or D37). If an MVS code is not applicable, this field is filled with three hyphens. The CICS code is an abend code or a number referring to a CICS message (for example, AKEA is a CICS abend code; 1310 refers to message DFHTS1310).

System action

An exception entry 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.

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

User response

If CICS is still running, it is necessary to decide whether to terminate CICS.

  1. Look up the MVS code, if there is one, in the relevant MVS codes manual which is detailed in the book list in the front of this manual.

  2. Next, look up the CICS alphanumeric code in this manual. This tells you, for example, whether the error was a program check, an abend, or a runaway, and may give you some guidance concerning user response.

  3. If 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.

  4. If you cannot run without the full use of module modname you should bring CICS down in a controlled shutdown.
