OA58421: PRLRMAIN & DAGSH WORK AREA NOT BEING FREED AFTER ABEND IN DADSM PARTIAL RELEASE

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• DADSM Partial Release does not free the PRLRMAIN work area after
  an error condition occurs in IGG020P1 or IGG020P2.
  
  Storage will be above the line in subpool 230, key 5 and
  contain PRLRMAIN work areas with fields filled in including
  Format1 DSCB for a data set.
  
  This will only occur when Partial Release is entered via SVC or
  PARTREL MACRO issued by the caller.
  
  Storage will be x'1000' bytes with x'710' bytes free and work
  area will look similar to this:
  7F66A000.:7F66A70F. LENGTH(X'0710')--All bytes contain X'00'

  For long running jobs such as HSM, an accumulation of these work
  areas above the line may result in abend878 RC0C in the address
  space such as HSM.

  ****************************************************************
  Partial release workarea extension built by front-end SVC
  routine is not freed by its front-end recovery routine.
  

Problem conclusion

• Changes have been added in partial release back-end recovery
  routine to free the partial release workarea extension built
  by the front-end SVC procedure.
