Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS Users. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: An abend 0C4 / AKEA occurs at * * offset x'42E' in module DFHTFIQ. * **************************************************************** DFHSMAR detects a storage violation in a task. DFHTFIQ is called for SET_TERMINAL_FACILITY to increment the storage violation count (TCTTESCV) in the TCTTE. The TCTTESCV field is in the TCTTETTE (TCTTE BMS Extension) which is addressed by TCTTE field TCTTETEA. There is no terminal for this transaction, so it is all down to luck if it works or results in an S0C4 abendAKEA.
Problem conclusion
DFHTFIQ has been altered so if the facility type is an ICE (START without a terminal) or if there is no facility then it will return an EXCEPTION response with a reason of NO_TERMINAL and will not attempt to update the storage violation count in the TCTTE.
