  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Routine IPIRFVAL is incorrectly setting a bit in table IPIRFMET.
As this bit is unused by other routines, this only becomes a
problem if IPIRFMET is in read-only storage.
IPIRFMET is marked as RENT (because it should be read-only) and
so if the SIPILINK library is APF-authorized z/OS loads it into
subpool 252 which is read-only, which results in the ABENDS0C4
near x'C0A' of IPIRFVAL.

Local fix

  • This issue can be bypassed by removing APF authorization for
the library.
