  This error occurs under all of the following conditions:
  
  - PK95690 is applied
  - SPMN attempts to detect the threshold exception for CI splits
    or CA splits
  - The number of CI splits or CA splits is equal to or more than
    32K
  
  SPMN changed the calculational procedure for the percentage of
  CI splits and CA splits by PK95690. As the result, SPMN gets
  ABEND0CB.
  
  Additionally, until PK95690 is applied, there is the problem
  that the incorrect percentage of CI splits or CA splits is
  reported when the number of CI splits or CA splits is equal to
  or more than 32K.
  By this APAR, this problem is also fixed.
  

Problem conclusion

• The following modules are modified to resolve ABEND0CB.
  
  FABKGRUP,FABKLIST
