Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS users with UI97119 applied.         *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: A Liberty task defined with             *
    *                      TASKDATAKEY(USER) and ISOLATE(YES) is   *
    *                      running on a T8 TCB. The region has     *
    *                      TRANISO=YES set.                        *
    *                      Message DFHSM0002 code X'3016' in       *
    *                      module DFHSMSU is issued with a dump.   *
    ****************************************************************
    When DFHSMSU was changed to avoid problems if the switch to QR
    loses control on a lock, two places were exposed in add_subspace
    where obtain_alet may be called without a switch to QR.
    If a task running on a T8 TCB takes one of these paths for a
    steal_alet call, the task will fail as the T8 TCB does not own
    the DU_AL list for QR's ALETs.
    Message DFHSM0002 code x'3016'
    in DFHSMSU issued with a dump.
    Exception trace entries issued -
    SM 3018 SMSU  *EXC* ALET_steal_commencing
    SM 3016 SMSU  *EXC* - ALESERV_delete_from_QR_DU-AL_failed
    

Problem conclusion

  • UI97119
    
    DFHSMSU has been changed to check it is running on the QR TCB
    before attempting to create the task subspace.
