PH65028: ACIF SKIPS OVER THE RESOURCE ENVIRONMENT GROUP WHEN EXTENSIONS=RESORDER IS SPECIFIED.

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When ACIF specifies the EXTENSIONS=RESORDER parameter,
  unreferenced resources are excluded from the Resource Group.
  The problem is that if a resource is mapped in the Resource
  Environment Group but not referenced, the resource is
  excluded from the Resource Group (RESOBJDD).
  This will cause the job to fail when printed.
