Error description
If IMSPA is installed into an APF-Authorized library, the Online Interface can experience S0C4 RC=4 abends due to Storage Key Violation. When loaded from an APF-Library, IMSPA allocates storage for communication with ISPF and z/OS defaults to allocating the storage in Subpool 252, Key 0, Store Protected. IMS PA runs in Key 8, therefore when ISPF attempts to store into this area, a violation and abend occurs.
Local fix
As a temporary workaround, install IMS PA into a non-APF Authorized library.
