Error description

  • You are running CPSM 6.2 and receive a DFHFC0519 message during
    startup:
    +DFHFC0519 APPLID
    
    Call to VSAM Catalog utility IGGCSI00 for dataset  failed.
    Return
    code X'00000004' Reason code X'C6E2047A'.
    
    
    
    Upon inspecting the trace for this issue you see an
    INQUIRE_FILE against the EYUDREP followed by an INQUIRE_CATALOG
    with a blank DSNAME parameter, which fails with
    IGGCSI00_DETECTED_ERROR.
    
    
    AP 00E1 EIP ENTRY INQUIRE-FILE
    AP 0410 FCMT ENTRY - FUNCTION(INQUIRE_FILE) FILE_NAME(EYUDREP)
    
    AP 0411 FCMT EXIT - FUNCTION(INQUIRE_FILE) RESPONSE(OK)
    AP 00E1 EIP EXIT INQUIRE-FILE OK
    
    AP 2491 FCVC ENTRY - FUNCTION(INQUIRE_CATALOG) DSNAME()
    AP 2498 FCVC *EXC* - IGGCSI00_DETECTED_ERROR
    FUNCTION(INQUIRE_CATALOG) DSNAME()
    
    This is due to a race condition between CPSM opening the EYUDREP
    and this INQUIRE_FILE which is retrieving the dataset name from
    it, as the DSNAME of this file is only available once it is
    OPEN.

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: All CICSPlex SM Users.                       *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Message DFHFC0519 with reason code      *
    *                      x'C6E2047A', may be seen during         *
    *                      the start-up of a CMAS region.          *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF and recycle all CMAS regions.  *
    *                 These can be done in any order.              *
    ****************************************************************
    During CMAS startup, CPSM calls EYU0XDCE to inquire on the
    EYUDREP file and check the extent usage of the EYUDREP data set.
    This is so XDCE can produce message EYUXD1032 when extent usage
    has exceeded 70% of its available extents. This requires the
    file to have been opened prior to inquiring on the resource to
    retrieve the current data set name. This should occur due to the
    OPENTIME(STARTUP) attribute on the installed EYUDREP file
    resource. However if the file has yet to be opened by CICS, due
    to a slow down in this startup processing, the INQUIRE FILE call
    issued in EYU0XDCE returns a blank BASEDSNAME while completing
    successfully. This results in XDCE issuing a inquire_catalog
    with an invalid data set name being passed in, resulting in the
    DFHFC0519 error message.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Data repository initialisation has been improved, to ensure the
    EYUDREP file has been opened prior to XDCE being called to
    calculate extent usage, and further checks have added to the
    INQUIRE call against EYUDREP to prevent the error resulting in
    DFHFC0519.
