Error description
There is a storage leak in FM/CICS when program FMN3CICS invokes FMN3INQ and returns. The reason appears to be the same as APAR OW07483 (compltely unrelated product but same problem) in which it describes problem with epilog macro DFHEIPLR. FM also uses this macro.
Local fix
Circumvention to avoid below the line storage being allocated would be to change the TASKDATALOC paramter from BELOW to ANY (see FMN3INST in hlq.SFMNSAM1)
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All FM/CICS users * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: SOS condition when displaying large * * number of CICS resources on a list * * display. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF. * **************************************************************** File Manager was using DFHEIPLR to free the program storage for the inquiry programs. The DFHEIPLR was not freeing the storage which leads to a storage creep for large inquiries.
Problem conclusion
File Manager has been changed to ensure all called programs free the storage they acquired on exit.
