PH32395: ABEND0C4-11 AT X'6FA' INTO THE MODULE ICEMTS AT PTF LEVEL UI90068 WHEN ZSORT=Y IS IN EFFECT

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The ZSORT feature does not support SORTs that are program
  invoked and using E15 and/or E35 EXITS for input and output.  In
  this case ZSORT needs to be disabled and use the traditional
  sorting techniques, otherwise program failures like ABEND0C4
  may occur. This APAR will improve this check.
