Error description
An 0C4 in ADH#AUDT may occur at offset x'8FA' or similar. The cause of the ABEND 0C4 is a timing window between the start of the STAP proc and the start of the Db2 Subsystem.
Local fix
Start the Db2 Subsystem and wait until the Db2 DBM1 started task is active before starting the STAP proc. If the Db2 Subsystem needs to be started after the STAP proc then allow STAP to be fully initialized by waiting a couple of minutes prior to starting the Db2 Subsystem.
