  • Closed as new function.

Error description

  • Whenever an IMS subsystem is brought down (or comes back up)
    while an online reorg job is running, the Online Reorganization
    Facility job abends with the message HRF01581E Number of online
    IMS subsystems has changed. These abends require manual
    intervention.
    This APAR allows ORF to continue processing without ABEND when
    the number of online IMS subsystems changes.
    The enhancement is being implemented because of the RFE
    IMSDBSOLPK-I-7.
