OY65199: VARY INACT,I ON AN INDEPENDENT LU HANGS IN PNFY1.

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• A VARY INACT,I is issued against an Independent LU (ILU).  A
  display shows the ILU in PNFY1.
  The trace shows a TERM-OTHER RU sent from config services
  to session services, but the RU does not have TMONOTFY on,
  which would indicate a NOTIFY is required.  After the BFCLEANUP
  RUs and BFSESSEND RUs are sent, a NOTIFY is never sent to
  config services, which would allow the ILU to be marked
  inactive. The SIBs are cleaned up, but the resource stays in
  PNFY1.

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: An ILU (CDRSC) stays in PNFY1 state     *
  *                      after a Vary Inact immediate command is *
  *                      issued. The inactivation hangs because  *
  *                      the RCDINUSE bit is on.                 *

  A session set up request was routed to locate the DLU in the
  network. The DLU was not found in the adjacent SSCPs or CPs.
  Then before routing was exausted a last ditch effort was done
  to locate the DLU in this host. The last ditch effort was a
  success that the DLU was found and session became active. But
  route update (ROUTEUPD) was not performed causing the RCDINUSE
  bit remain turned on and other control block fields remain not
  updated.
  

Problem conclusion

• ISTSSCUX has been changed to issue ROUTEUPD macro when a last
  ditch effort is performed and the DLU is found as a LEN owned
  by this host.
