Error description

  • ABENDS0C9 IQCXPACE at X'1096' when running QCF LOAD and
    with the MAXWAIT statement set as follows:
    MAXWAIT=00:00:01
    
    S0C9
    

Local fix

  • Set the MAXWAIT state to MAXWAIT=00:00:02 or higher to avoid
    the abend.

    *                      QCF takes more than 1 second, this      *
    *                      issue may occur.                        *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the maintenance for this APAR.         *
    ****************************************************************
    The QCF LOAD function with the PACING converts the time it takes
    to actually insert a message and the time recorded in the IMS
    log into Clock Value to calculate the wait time between
    inserting the next message. ABENDS0C9 is caused by incorrect
    logic when calculating wait time using Clock Value.
    

Problem conclusion

  • QCF has been modified to calculate Clock Value accurately.
