PK70849: THIS APAR ADDRESSES SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH THE FAST PATH ADVANCEDTOOL AS NOTED IN THE ERROR DESCRIPTION

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• This APAR addresses the following problems with the Fast Path
  Advanced Tool:
  1) ANALYZE command may abend with S0C4 when satisfying all
     the following conditions:
     - Not defined PCL and SSP in DBD.
     - Analyze multiple areas sequentially. (For example, ANALYZE
       with ITASKCTL=1 for multiple areas)
     - Two hierarchy Database. (max segment level:2)
  2) DMACPRT command to multiple areas where CI size is different
     generates incorrect DMAP dump.
  3) In UNLOAD command and CHANGE command, when NEWRESLB DD
     statement is defined and NEWACB DD statement is not defined
     in the JCL, the randomizer is incorrectly called.

  This APAR addresses several problems with the Fast Path
  Advanced Tool
  

Problem conclusion

• 1) An error of the addition of a pointer record is corrected.
  2) The buffer used by an error segment information record
     is initialized properly.
  3) It is corrected that the Macro of IMS Version with the
     maximum length of DMACLEN is used.
  4) The timing of checking whether NEWRESLB/OLDRESLB DD
     is specified is changed properly.
  5) Start position in the output range is corrected.
