OA62024: AFTER OA60777 ABEND 0C1 IN HASCSISC 21/09/01 PTF PECHANGE

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• After application of OA60777, ABEND S0C1 may occur in HASCSISC.
  
  ANALYSIS:
  HIPER APAR OA60777 added two new SRB return codes which means
  that the $SBWA macro branch tables must be updated: one in
  HASCHAM and the other in HASCSISC. The one in HASCSISC wasn't
  updated and when the new RC is returned, a wild branch resulting
  in ABEND 0C1 occurs.
  
  KNOWN IMPACT:
  ABEND 0C1 in JES2 common code can cause calling jobs to ABEND
  unexpectedly. This will only occur in applications that do a
  spool read SSI where the caller is asking for incore buffers.
  
  VERIFICATION STEPS:
  1. PTF for OA60777 is applied
  2. 0C1 ABEND in HASCSISC in calling program
  3. Application performed a spool read SSI where the caller is
  asking for incore buffers.
  
  PE INFORMATION:
  USERS AFFECTED:
  All users of JES2 with OA60777 applied
  
  USER IMPACT:
  APAR OA60777 fixed the problem it reported but introduced a new
  problem.

  ****************************************************************
  Users of the SPOOL read function (SSI 71 function SSJISIOM)
  that request in-storage buffers (SPIOCTYP set to HDB and
  SPIOASID set) can encounter an ABEND0C1 if the PROTSRB
  request fails with a return code of 52 (ABEND recovery) or
  56 (job not active in address space).  This is caused by a
  missing update to the branch table in the SPOOL read logic
  of the HASCSISC module.
  

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).
  
  The HASCSISC module code that processes the return codes from
  PROTSRB was updated to properly handle the new return codes
  added by OA60777.
