Recursive S0C4 abend in ALZBRMIO at offset X'618'
IMS PI sets an ESTAE exit in ALZBRMIO to catch errors when input
files are OPENed. However, it is also possible to drive this
ESTAE routine if a GETMAIN storage request abends.
Once invoked in this manner, the ESTAE recovery routine gets a
S0C4 abend which re-drives the ESTAE again creating an
indefinite loop.

    



Problem conclusion


    

  • Ensure that the ESTAE routine is only invoked for file OPEN
errors.
