Error description

• S0E0 abend in ARYLINKL can occur during DB2 backup taken by
  Recovery Expert after HSM APAR OA41191 has been applied
  
  When you create a system backup that uses the DB2 Backup System
  Utility as the backup method, a S0E0 ABEND in ARYLINKL will
  occur during the backup.
  
  After a backup is created using the DB2 Backup System Utility,
  we then do a LIST COPYPOOL command to determine the source to
  target mappings so that is how we are tied into HSM.  The only
  way to avoid this would be to choose a backup method other than
  DB2 Backup System Utility.
  
  *WARNING DO NOT APPLY HSM APAR OA41191 UNTIL RE APAR PM86735 IS
  AVAIABLE*
  If DFSMSHSM, ISMF  APAR OA41191 (PTF UA67875 for z/OS 1.12 and
  UA67876 for z/OS 1.13) has been applied Recovery Expert PM86735
  must be applied to avoid the S0E0 abend in ARYLINKL during a
  System Level Backup taken by Recovery Expert using the
  DB2 Backup System utility
  NOTE
  The Recovery Expert maintenance can be applied without
  the HSM maintenance, but the HSM maintenance must not
  be applied without the RE maintenance
  
  If a system level BACKUP ( SLB ) is created without the fix for
  OA41191 (PTF's UA67875 and UA67876) and the version has a TOKEN
  that includes one or more trailing spaces, x'FF', or binary
  zeroes, the Recovery Expert backup or offload job may fail.
  
  This can happen because the backup with these tokens is not
  saved to the repository and the offload attempts to use the
  previous backup and the following message is issued: 'ARYS285E -
  HSM Command failed. RC = 00000006. RS = 00000002'.
