PM19993: STATUSAX AXSTAT STATAX WHEN DFSYDRU0 REJECTS DESTINATION NAME WITH RC=12. CORRECT STATUS CODE SHOULD BE 'A1'

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Customer DFSYDRU0 exit was called due to ALTPCB CHNG call from
  OTMA-originated transaction. The exit rejected the destination
  name as invalid with RC=12. This ultimately resulted in CHNG
  call receiving status 'AX'. To be consistent with other
  processing where a destination name is invalid, IMS should
  return 'A1' in this case and not 'AX'. 'AX' is reserved for
  'error' cases, not simple rejection of destination name

  ****************************************************************
  An application issues an ALTPCB CHNG call from an OTMA orginated
  transaction. As a result of this, the OTMA Destination
  Resolution Exit, DFSYDRU0, gets control.  The exit rejected the
  destination name as invalid by returning with RC=12.  This
  resulted in the CHNG call being rejected with an AX status.
  
  For an invalid destination, AX status is not the correct status.
  A1 status should have been issued.
  

Problem conclusion

• GEN:
  KEYWORDS:
  
  *** END IMS KEYWORDS ***
  DFSYFND0 has been modified to ensure that status A1
  is returned when an invalid destination has been detected
  by DFSYDRU0.
