APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
By default it is assigned transaction ID 'BBOC' but the customer is allowed to change this to any transaction ID that they prefer to use. Since the BBOACNTL program doesn't know what that transaction ID is, it saves the transaction ID that was used when the WOLA Task Related User Exit (TRUE) is started. The failure happens when the CICS transaction ID which was saved when the TRUE was activated is a CPLT transaction fails. Yet CPLT is an internal CICS program and so we cannot modify the respective transactionID

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server V9.0 for z/OS * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: A transaction CPLT abend ASIB occurred * * during transaction roll back. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** When the WOLA Task Related User Exit (TRUE) is enabled during CICS startup, the transaction ID is saved by bboacntl. Later on the saved transaction ID can be used for transaction recovery. When a transaction ID of CPLT is used during transaction recovery, the following message is issued: DFHAC2236 03/04/2020 09:47:37 AP06CC18 Transaction CPLT abend ASIB in program DFHSIPLT term ????. Updates to local recoverable resources will be backed out.
Problem conclusion
The WAS z/OS Optimized Adapters CICS PLT Init program, bboacplt, was changed to specify CTID=BBOC when starting the task related user exit (TRUE). The Optimized Adapters CICS Control transaction program, bboacntl, will use the CICS transaction identifier specified on CTID= when specified. If CTID= is not specified and the CICS transaction identifier is CPLT, BBOC will be used as the CICS transaction identifier instead of CPLT. The following shows how to specify a CICS transaction identifier BBOC when starting the WOLA TRUE. BBOC START_TRUE CTID=BBOC The fix for this APAR is targeted for inclusion in fix pack 9.0.5.5 and fix pack 20.0.0.7 for WebSphere Application Server Liberty.
