PI15090: EIBFN INCORRECT AFTER EXEC CICS SET MQCONN

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Your application issues an EXEC CICS SET MQCONN, and upon
  return from that call (whether successful or not) your
  application program expects the EIBFN field to contain x'CE04'.
  Instead you find it contains x'0E08' for RETURN, or possibly
  another value, but not CE04.

  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: After an EXEC CICS SET MQCONN command,  *
  *                      EIBFN contains '0E08'x.                 *

  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  An application issues an EXEC CICS SET MQCONN command, which has
  an EIBFN value of 'CE04'x.
  During the processing of this command, CICS modules issue
  further EXEC CICS commands which should be transparent to the
  application.  However the EXEC Interface Block (EIB) is updated.
  As a consequence, upon return to the application EIBFN contains
  '0E08'x indicating that an EXEC CICS RETURN command was most
  recently performed.
  

Problem conclusion

• DFHMQTM has been updated to ensure that upon return from an EXEC
  CICS SET MQCONN command, the EIB indicates that such a command
  was most recently issued.
