PM11431: U073 ABEND WHEN USING RESOLVE STARTED UOW AND JOB ENDS BEFORE CURRENT LOG.

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• An U=73 ABEND occurs when a begin span log record is found
  without an end span log record. This should not happen in a
  normal situation; however, do to the processing for Resolve
  started UOW some circumstances have been found to cause this
  issue. Resolve started UOW will cause Log Analysis processing to
  either end on a log boundary or at the current time. It is when
  the Resolve started UOW ends on a log boundary this can become
  an issue. This fix will modify the processing to ignore the
  begin span records that are not needed for the reporting
  process.
  

Local fix

• Turn off Resolve stared UOW and expand the end reporting time.
  If this happens when using a RBA range, modify the end RBA range
  to not be on the log boundary. If this happens during other
  processing - it may be resolved by just restarting the job as
  the end span would be written by then.
