Error description

  • Application program issues multiple EXEC CICS SPOOLREAD
commands.
Trace shows :
AP E160 EXEC  ENTRY SPOOLREAD
AP E111 EISR  EXIT  TRACE_ENTRY/OK
AP 00E3 PSP   ENTRY
AP 00DE SKP   ENTRY PERFORM
.
eventually...
AP 00DE SKP   EXIT  USER-CODE-FAILED
AP 2000 PCPG  ENTRY ABEND...APSW
.
JES log shows SYSTEM COMPLETION CODE=0C1  REASON CODE=00000001
System trace shows the abend occurs when running in AMODE(24).
*PGM    001 00000000_002E4A4C
.
However, prior to this, DFHSKE (0F2ED87C) was AMODE31.
DSP        00000000_0F2ED87C
           07851000 80000000
.
We appear to have flipped into AMODE(24) and lost addressability
of the module DFHSKE.
