PM07102: CKZ56401E INDICATING AN 0C4 IN THE DATA MASKING ENGINE WHEN USING >1 SUBTASKS IN THE TARGET JOB

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When the target job is executing data masking as requested by
  the user and MAX-SUBTASKS>1 the data masking engine takes an
  S0C4 in most cases. This is being caused by the masking engines
  inability to share data from one subtask to another.
  
  The code has been changed to allow the data masking engine to
  share data correctly from one subtask to another.
  

Local fix

• Specify MAX-SUBTASKS=1 to eliminate this problem.  This fix
  should be applied as this specification may cause performance
  problem in the target job in particular.
