APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The INVMAINT process will generate a S0C7 abend if the length of
    the INV$yy output data set name is exactly 44 characters. The
    INVMAINT process may experience a dynamic allocation error
    following a previous failed run.

    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF(s).                   *
    ****************************************************************
    1. When an Inventory Maintenance report data set (INV$yy) is
    generated with a data set name exactly 44 characters long, this
    data set is not processed correctly by module BRNVCI71 causing
    a S0C7 abend.
    2. The INVMAINT sub task does not correctly free resources
    following an out of space failure on the dynamically allocated
    report data set (INV$yy). This causes a dynamic allocation
    error on subsequent runs of the INVMAINT sub task.
    

Problem conclusion

  • 1. Module BRNVCI71 has been changed to correctly process the
    Inventory Maintenance report data set when the generated data
    set name is exactly 44 characters.
    2. The INVMAINT sub task has been changed to correctly free
    resources following an out of space failure on the dynamically
    allocated Inventory Maintenance report data set.
