PK54482: ABEND0C7 IN IPITSCAN ( COMCSUTC +X'296' )

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• ABENDS0C7 in IPITSCAN (COMCSUTC+x'296').
  If first record on TRFIN is a x'10' (MSG) record then time zone
  is not correctly set for converting timestamp to microseconds.
  
  Additional problems fixed in this APAR:
  1) SECGROUP does not work correctly with integers/counts.
     Exponent incorrect for large numbers in form-based reports.
  2) Unusually large numbers for FPCALLS and FPGETS in form-based
     reports. Half-word values being treated as signed.
  3) Durations in BMP Checkpoint summary incorrect.  Wrong values
     being used to calculate average duration of syncpoints.
  4) Blank line instead of 'padding' line in Histogram Report.
     A blank line is before 'Same to next line'.
  5) Schedule distribution wrong in Transaction Resource Usage
     report. Transactions per schedule, schedules per minute
     and %SC counts wrong for schedules >1, particularly if quick
     reschedules occur.

  ABEND0C7 in IPITSCAN (COMCSUTC+x'296')(BATCH) reports. If first
  record on TRFIN is a x'10' (MSG) recoed then time zone is not
  correctly set for converting timestamp to microseconds.
  Other problems fixed in this APAR are:
  1. SECGROUP does not work correctly with intergers/counts.
  Exponent incorrect for large numbers in form-based reports.
  2. Unusually largenumbers for FPCALLS and FPGETS in form-
  based reports. Half-word values being treated as signed.
  3. Durations in BMP Checkpoint summary incorrect. Wrong
  values being used to calulate average duration of synchpoints.
  4. Blank line instead of 'padding' line in Histogram Report.
  Blank line before 'Same to next line'.
  5. Schedule distribution wrong in Transaction resource
  Usage report. Transactions per schedule, schedules per
  minute and %SC counts wrong for schedules >1, particularly
  if quick reschedules occur.
  

Problem conclusion

• The following changes have been made to correct the above
  problems:
  1. Correct setting of time zone in IPITSCAN before calling
  COMCSUTC
  2. Correct handling of integers/counts in IPIFPROC
  3. Use ICM rather than LH in IPI4PROC
  4. Use correct values in IPISBMPC
  5. Correct 'padding' code in IPISHIST
  6. Correct calculations in IPISTS00
