OA39747: FSS PRINTER STATUS SHOWS AS INACTIVE IN SDSF, $DPRTX SHOWS ACTIVE

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• SDSF TSO users on the PR (printer) panel will see incorrect
  FSS printer status. Similar to OA38226. A $DPRTx shows printer
  as ACTIVE. This may occur after printer setup message $HASP190
  is issued. At this point the SDSF printer status as well as the
  $DPRTx display will show HALTED. After $SPRTx is issued SDSF
  will show INACTIVE while $DPRTx shows ACTIVE.
  
  The CDCT copy of the device status used by SSI83 for the SDSF
  display is updated incorrectly.
  
  Verification steps:
  See problem description. If FSS printer and PRESELCT=YES set

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All users of HJE7770 and HJE7780.            *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: SDSF PR panel falsely shows a           *
  *                      printer as inactive.                    *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  JES2 SSI 83 data returned to applications such as SDSF
  is flawed.  The management of device activity falsely
  removes data for a job active on a printer.
  

Problem conclusion

• TYPE/RESTART(WARM) IPL/REQUIRED(YES) CLPA(YES)
  
  CLPA is needed only if HASCxxxx modules currently reside in
  the pageable link pack area (PLPA).
  
  ENF processing is updated to manage printer status
  properly.
  
  In order to completely fix this problem, APARs OA39305
  and OA38630 must also be applied.
