  ANALYSIS:
  During a warm start JES2 experienced CKPT damage and corrected
  the damage after issuing HASP486 and HASP483 messages.
  
  Then, when a second system was warm started in the MAS, it
  encountered a $DIS error at label $BVORPHN.
  
  The problem is a JOE placed on the FREE queue during the queue
  rebuild had a BERT associated with it that were not considered
  by the HASPJOS routine $#RBDCHK which resulted in the BERT being
  orhpaned.
  
  KNOWN IMPACT:
  JES2 may ABEND and issue message HASP483 prompting for a queue
  rebuild. JES2 will recover successfully after the ABEND and
  rebuild.
  
  VERIFICATION STEPS:
  1. JES2 member warm starts and detects JES2 CKPT is damaged.
  2. Job queue rebuild is performed and completes successfully
  (HASP440)
  3. On a subsequent warm start, a $DIS error occurs at label
  $BVORPHN for an orphaned BERT that was associated with a JOE
  previously placed on the FREE queue.

  ****************************************************************
  During a warm start, in checkpoint validation, a damaged Job
  Output Element (JOE) may be found and moved to the free
  queue.  If the JOE has a BERT associated with it, the BERT
  is orphaned.  On the next warm start, the orphaned BERT
  is detected and a $DIS DISASTROUS ERROR AT LABEL $BVORPHN
  ABEND is issued.
  

Problem conclusion

• TYPE/RESTART (HOT) IPL/REQUIRED (NO) CLPA (NO)
  
  Code in module HASPJOS was modified to free any BERTs
  associated with a JOE before moving the JOE to the free
  queue.
  
  Code in module HASPIRDA was modified for a warm start to
  check for BERT problems after fixing any problem found in
  the job queue or Job Output Table (JOT).
