APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The control region encounters an unexpected condition while
  completing a JTA transaction and issues a message of the form:
  BBOO0222I: WTRN0108I: contextDisassociation. Unexpected state:
  3 ... ,FailedXAResources = true, ...
  
  It then terminates with:
  BBOO0035W TERMINATING THE CURRENT PROCESS, REASON=C9C21A30.

  ****************************************************************
  When completing a JTA transaction involving multiple XA
  Resources, a performance optimization was used because all but
  one XA Resource voted read-only.  However, when the commit
  request was sent to the single XA Resource, it failed with an
  XAException with error code XA_RETRY.  The error handling code
  for the performance optimization was incorrect, resulting in an
  unexpected state during context disassociation, which in turn
  caused the transaction service to terminate the control region.
  

Problem conclusion

• The error handling for the performance optimization was
  changed so that the retry process for transaction completion
  was configured and initiated correctly.
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix packs 8.5.5.14 and 9.0.0.9.  Please refer to the
