Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of Diagnose x'E4' command * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: APPLY PTF * **************************************************************** For z/VM 6.4.0, an ABENDXLK001 occurs when using Diagnose x'E4' function 3 for a device that is not a DASD device. For z/VM 7.1.0, return code 408 (LINK unsuccessful) is returned instead of the correct return code of 402 (real device RDEVNO is not a DASD).
Problem conclusion
The code in HCPDME has been corrected to return a return code of 402, real device RDEVNO is not a DASD, when a non-DASD device is specified on function 3 of Diagnose x'E4'.
