  This APAR enables CICS Configuration Manager to operate in a
  CICS Transaction Server for z/OS v6.3 environment.
  

Problem conclusion

• CICS Configuration Manager is enhanced to run under and support
  CICS Transaction Server for z/OS 6.3 environments.
  
  Other minor corrective maintenance or improvements are included
  in the APAR:
  
  1.  The CREATE API automatically uppercases the names of newly
      created CICS CM Repository objects such as change package
      IDs, Schemes, etc. Previously, the Rexx SCCVSAMP samples
      CCVXXMLx allowed mixed case names, which are inconsistent
      with CICS CM operation.
  
  2.  SCCVSAMP sample CCVXCPRC (COBOL, package pre-processing
      exit program) is updated to correctly set parameter
      CPPR-AP-CHECK to P (pass) instead of Y (yes) when marking
      the package as fully approved.
  
  3.  SCCVSAMP sample CCVXHKPU (CCVJNL Journal unload) is updated
      to illustrate the DELETE processing option values of YES
      and NO.
  
  4.  CCVBMAIN batch utility is improved to suppress reporting of
      the resolved IPaddress as 0.0.0.0 in favour other non-zero
      addresses.
  
  5.  Program CCVWSDSH is corrected to prevent ABEND AWBM
      (CICS Web Interface error) when processing an IPv6
      IPaddress.
  
  6.  ISPF online panels issue error CCVE176 (Invalid CICS
      version) in place of CCVE033 (Internal Error) when the
      maintenance required to support the CICS TS release of the
      CICS CM Server has not been applied.
  
  7.  Obscure error messages triggered by change package batch
      audit reporting have been corrected. These could occur when
      reporting IMPORT history for the package when the option
      "Register change packages on import" was NOT selected.
      The errors messages appeared as:
  
        CCVBMAIN CCVPRINT:
  
          CCV9166E A required field is missing.
  
        CICS CM SERVER, CCVLOG:
  
          CCV5210E Severe error for Command INQUIRE.
          CCV9999I TASKNO=<task>
          CCV9999I RC=SVERR
          CCV9999I MODID=X'0009' or MODID=X'0005'
          CCV9999I RSN=X'0002'
          CCV9999I INFO=X'F0F0F1F4' 0014
          CCV9999I INFO2=X'60E2D7C1C3C5E260' -SPACES-
          CCV9999I USERID=<userID>
  
  8.  SCCVSAMP sample CCVXCSDD containing the CICS resource
      definitions is updated for FILE(CCVDAAIX) to set attribute
      OPENTIME(STARTUP). The previous setting of
      OPENTIME(FIRSTREF) could lead to file write errors owing to
      delays in the initial loading of the file.
