PH47809: THE REPORT LOG POSITION MESSAGE MAY REPORT THE SAME TIMESTAMP REPEATEDLY WHEN THE WORKLOAD IS LOW.

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Even with the REPORTPOSITIONINTERVAL being configured larger
  than LOGPOLLINTERVAL, and the second parameter of
  LOGPOLLINTERVAL setting to NOINCREASE, each time when a Report
  Log Position message is issued, the same timestamp may be
  reported repeatedly if there is no workload. Report Log Position
  message should report the progressed timestamp which reflects
  the most recent IFI request.
  

Local fix

• No.
  

Problem summary

  * USERS AFFECTED: Users of IIDR CDC for z/OS                   *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When there is no workload, CDC may send *
  *                      Report Log Position messages with the   *
  *                      repeated timestamp. Report Log Position *
  *                      message should report the progressed    *
  *                      timestamp which reflects the most       *
  *                      recent IFI request.                     *
  ****************************************************************
  When IFI call returns no data progress, the timestamp and log
  position field in the Report Log Position message would not be
  updated and the same information would be reported repeatedly.
  

Problem conclusion

• When IFI call returns no data progress, although no log position
  advances, the timestamp field in the Report Log Position message
  was modified to reflect the latest IFI request.
