Error description

  • Two issues being addressed as follows:
    1) A Group definition in IMS PA may contain both IMS and IMS
    Connect System definitions. The IMS Connect system definitions
    may also specify a CEX repository data set. When the group
    definition is used to run a report using automated file
    selection, the JCL generated incorrectly specifies the default
    CEX repository data set (IMS PA Profile option 0.5) rather than
    the one from the system definition.
    2) ABENDS0C4 IPI4PROC + x'2116'.
    At EOF processing with command option PROCESSEDONLY(YES) set,
    some transactions may be incorrectly flushed, resulting in a
    reference to a storage address that is no longer valid, causing
    the S0C4.

    1. A Group definition in IMS PA may contain both IMS and IMS
       Connect System definitions, the IMS Connect system
       definitions may also specify a CEX repository data set.
       When the group definition is used to run a report using
       automated file selection, the JCL generated incorrectly
       specifies the default CEX repository data set
       (IMS PA Profile option 0.5) rather then the one from the
       system definition.
    
    2. At EOF processing with command option PROCESSEDONLY(YES) set,
       some transactions may be incorrectly flushed, resulting in a
       reference to a storage address that is no longer valid.
    

Problem conclusion

  • 1. When a Group definition is used to run a report set, the
       first IMS Connect system definition found within that group
       is checked for a CEX repository definition.  If found, the
       CEX repository from the system definition will replace the
       default data set in the generated JCL.  As only a single
       CEX repository may be defined in the report JCL no further
       checking of the group definition is performed after the
       first IMS Connect system definition is found.
    
    2. Command option PROCESSEDONLY(YES) only impacts on the
       handling of transactions written to the Outflight data set,
       all other transactions are processed normally.
