  If you click menu dropdowns Explorer->Trace->Collect Service
  Data
  and save the .zip file, the .cicsexplorer.0.trace member will
  contain
  a trace entry previous to the exception similar to the
  following:
  .

  com.ibm.cics.core.model.CPSM.fireException()
  
  [CPSM[host=your.host.name.com],

  ,
  com.ibm.cics.cm.model.runtime.CMServerException: Maybe
  incomplete :
  !ReasonCode_8000.message!]
  .
  If you attempt to perform a similar save of an update using the
  CICS CM ISPF dialog, you receive ISPF text message:
  .
  "XPRA: Control Block version different from execution
  environment
  version XPRA: Control Block version is 00030200 ; CICS TS
  Version is
  00040100"
  .
  In this case, the customer configuration contained a CICS CM
  resource attribute exit for CPSM contexts.  The exit is the
  COBOL CCVXPRA supplied sample exit from SCCVSAMP.  This exit
  also requires a control block version table CCVXPRAP.  The
  customer had upgraded from CICS TS 3.2 to CICS TS 4.1, but the
  CCVXPRAP version table had not been recompiled the the
  <CTSVRM> variable set to "410" resulting the Reasoncode_8000
  message being sent to the CICS Explorer.
  .
  The CICS Explorer needs to be able to process reason codes
  returned by the CICS CM user exits.
