    This APAR fixes the Advanced ACBGEN not to fail with ABEND U1004
    
    and FABQ9911E UNABLE TO HOOK DFSUACB0 after IMS V15 APAR PH52612
    
    is applied.
    
    The Advanced ACBGEN uses IMS module DFSUACB0 by hooking some
    specific assembler instructions when running. The IMS module
    has been updated by IMS V15 APAR PH52612 and some assembler
    instructions to be hooked are changed. It causes Advanced
    ACBGEN fails to find the specific instructions and abends
    with hook error when running.
    This problem also occurs when running the ACB Generation and
    Catalog Populate utility (DFS3UACB) with the Advanced ACBGEN.
    
    The Advanced ACBGEN is fixed to support both IMS environment
    of APAR PH52612 is applied and not applied.
    The ACB Generation and Catalog Populate utility (DFS3UACB)
    with the Advanced ACBGEN is also fixed.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The following modules and macro have been changed to fix the
    problem: FABQTASK FABQHUK1 FABQDSEC
    
    IMSV15COEX/K
