Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• You have set the CICS system dump table entries to have the
  DUMPSCOPE(RELATED) option so that CICS regions with units of
  work related to the current region will also be dumped by
  means of a request to MVS dump services.
  .
  When one of those dumps is requested though, you may see error
  messages similar to the following:
  .
     DFHDU0201  cicsrgn ABOUT TO TAKE SDUMP. DUMPCODE: AAAAAA  ,
                        DUMPID: 1/1234

                        code of X'04'. A complete or partial
                        dump has been taken.

     ERROR OCCURRED IN SDUMP
  .
  Of note is the error in SDUMP with the non-zero SDRSN codes.
  The two non-zero SDRSN codes indicate:
  .
    40000000 is: While processing SVC X'33', the system detected
                 an error and gave recovery control.
  .
    00008000 is: Recovery received control while building the
                 SDUMP signals for other systems in the sysplex
  .
  If MVS system EREP data is reviewed for this, an S0C4 may be
  seen out of dump services:

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: IEA611I PARTIAL DUMP message can be     *
  *                      issued for SDUMPX dumping CICS regions  *
  *                      with the RELATED option.                *
  ****************************************************************
  When DUMPSCOPE = RELATED is specified in the system dump table,
  the CICS dump domain routine DFHDUSVC issues a GETMAIN for a
  PROBDESC area but the area acquired is in private storage.
  This area is not accessible by SDUMPX and returns a non-zero
  return code to the SDUMPX macro. This can result in partial
  SDUMPs being captured. Although the PROBDESC area should be
  getmained from subpool 245 (common storage), the use of private
  area storage does not always result in the problem symptoms
  being seen (it is intermittent).
  KEYWORDS: msgiea611I
  

Problem conclusion

• DFHDUSVC has been changed to specify SP(245) on the getmain for
  PROBDESC storage, so common SQA/ESQA is used.
