PH48983: EXEC CICS START TRANSID(TTTT) SYSID(SSSS) RESULTS IN TTTT STARTING LOCALLY

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• EXEC CICS START TRANSID(tttt) SYSID(ssss) results in tttt
  starting locally.   tttt is a transaction defined and installed
  with the DYNAMIC(YES) attribute.  ssss is a valid, acquired, and
  available connection to another CICS region.  DSRTPGM is set to
  NONE.
  
  At CICS/TS 5.5 with that setup, tttt is function shipped to the
  remote CICS region.  At CICS/TS 5.6 with that setup, tttt is
  started in the local CICS region.
  

Local fix

• Set DSRTPGM=DFHDSRT  or   specify Dynamic(No) on the transaction
  definition.
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS Users.                              *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: At CICS TS 5.6 and CICS TS 6.1 a SYSID  *
  *                      specified on an EXEC CICS START TRAN()  *
  *                      command is ignored for a transaction    *
  *                      that is defined as DYNAMIC(YES) when    *
  *                      SIT parameter DSRTGPGM=NONE.            *
  *                      CICS attempts to run the transaction    *
  *                      locally.                                *
  ****************************************************************
  At CICS TS 5.6 and CICS TS 6.1 if a transaction is defined as
  DYNAMIC(YES) but there is no routing program active in the
  region (SIT parameter DSRTPGM=NONE) then CICS will attempt to
  run the transaction locally and ignore any SYSID specified on
  an EXEC CICS START TRAN() command.
  

Problem conclusion

• CICS has been changed so that if a SYSID is specified on an
  EXEC CICS START TRAN() command then that is honoured.
  

Temporary fix
