OA60777: JESMSGLG CONTENT NOT CURRENT WHEN VIEWED BY SDSF **APAR IN ERROR SEE OA62024

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When JESMSGLG is displayed by SDSF while the job is executing,
  not all messages may be displayed until some later time. All
  JESMSGLG messages will be present once the Job completes
  execution.
  
  KNOWN IMPACT:
  JESMSGLG messages delayed using SDSF while job is execting
  
  Verification steps:
  1) Running JES2 z/OS 2.4 (HJE77C0)
  2) Missing JESMSGLG messages using SDSF while job is executing
  3) Not every installation may encounter this
  4) May be caused by non-JES2 application/code present

  * Various errors may occur while trying                        *
  * to access active JES subsystem data                          *

  ****************************************************************
  A number of errors can occur when trying to access unwritten
  records using SPOOL Data Set Browse.  These errors include:
  
   - Failure to obtain unwritten records
   - Incorrect RBAs (RPLRBAR values) returned on GET, often
     resulting in subsequent POINT error trying to use the
     returned RBA
   - Duplicate records or missing records on GET
  
  This can present as various errors when looking at an active
  data set in SDSF including "DATA ACCESS ERROR", "SPOOL DATA
  ERROR", "POINT ERROR RC=080210", and various flavors of
  ABEND02A
  

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).
  
  Code that manages accessing unwritten buffers has been
  updated to:
  
   - Fix a failure to copy unwritten buffers early in a job's
     execution
   - Correct various problems managing the current record
     number when processing unwritten buffers
   - Properly detect cases when buffers are being refreshed
     both from in-storage buffers and spooled buffers
  
  Additionally, an RPL feedback code (RPLFDBK) of 08022C can
  be returned when a GET is done with an RPLBUFL of 1 when
  the current record is just a CC character.  This has been
  corrected.
  
  Additional RAS code was added to help diagnose problems
  with HASP Access Method (HAM) code:
  
   - ARR recovery code in HASCPHAM has been updated to capture
     a dump in the event of an ABEND.
   - An in-storage rolling CTRACE was added to HASCPHAM to
     aid in diagnosing future problems.

  In JES2 Commands, in chapter 5, Command reference section,
  for both commands,
  
   - $D TRACEDEF - Display current trace environment
     characteristics and
   - $T TRACEDEF - Control the trace facility,
  
  under "Parameters", and in the JES2 Initialization and Tuning
  Reference, in chapter 3, JES2 initialization statement
  descriptions, for the statement,
  
   - TRACEDEF - Trace Facility Definition,
  
  under "Parameter Description for TRACEDEF", add the new HAM=
  parameter:
  
  HAM=(TRACE=,BUFSIZE=,JOBNAME=,JOB_NUMBER=)
    Specifications for the HAM (HASP Access Method) rolling
    CTRACE.  The CTRACE is established when the JES subsystem
    data set is allocated and is deleted when the data set is
    unallocated.
    The sub name of the trace is
       HAM$asid@sdbaddrx
    and it is located in 64-bit private storage of the address
    space making the HAM requests.
  
    TRACE=value
      Specifies the types of requests that should be processed.
      Multiple values can be specified, one per keyword.
      Values are:
        FSS or NOFSS
          FSS read processing
        GET or NOGET
          read processing of instream data sets
        PSO or NOPSO
          read processing of PSO data sets
        PUT or NOPUT
          write processing of SYSOUT data sets
        SAPI or NOSAPI
          read processing of SAPI data sets
        BROWSE or NOBROWSE
          SPOOL Data Set Browse processing when in-storage
          buffers are not being requested
        BROWSE_LIVE or NOBROWSE_LIVE
          SPOOL Data Set Browse processing when in-storage
          buffers are being requested
        NONE
          turn all options off
        ALL
          turn all options on
    BUFSIZE=nn
      Specifies the size of the trace buffer to get in segments
      (megabytes).
    JOBNAME=xxxxxxxx
      Specifies the jobname (including generics) used when
      filtering HAM CTRACE.  This is the name of the job
      performing the HAM requests.
      Note: If both JOBNAME and JOB_NUMBER are specified,
      a match on either one of the conditions activates the
      trace.
    JOB_NUMBER=nnnnnnnn
      Specifies the job number used when filtering the HAM
      CTRACE.  This is the job number of the job performing
      the HAM requests.
      Note: If both JOBNAME and JOB_NUMBER are specified,
      a match on either one of the conditions activates the
      trace.

  In chapter 3, Establishing JES2 traces, in the section
  "Setting up a JES2 trace environment with CTRACE", after the
  list ending with "QGET processing trace", add a new paragraph:
  
  SYSjes2 also contains an additional sublevel CTRACE for HASP
  Access Method (HAM) processing that is activated by using the
  TRACEDEF HAM= statement.
