PI74389: FPA ANALYZE FUNCTION IS NOT DETECTING CERTAIN ERRORS

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• FPA ANALYZE function is not detecting the following errors:
  -  Key sequence error in the twin chain
    -  An IOVF CI that is not used by any UOW but is marked as
       allocated in the IOVF space map CI
    -  Free chain in the IOVF space map CI is looped

  ****************************************************************
  This APAR addresses the following problems:
  
  1)FPA ANALYZE function cannot detect the following errors:
  . Key sequence error in the twin chain
  . An IOVF CI that is not used by any UOW but is marked as
  allocated in the IOVF space map CI
  . Free chain in the IOVF space map CI is looped
  
  2)FPA CHANGE function abended with S0C4 when both
  KEYSEQCHK=WARNING/BYPASS and HFPSEQER DD are specified.
  
  3)FPA UNLOAD/RELOAD/CHANGE function could not detect key
  sequence error if the length of key is 1.
  
  4)The HFPC0061E message that indicates inconsistency between
  IAREA and OAREA should be improved to clarify where the
  inconsistency is.
  

Problem conclusion

• 1)FPA ANALYZE function has been modified to detect the key
  sequence error, inconsistency between the IOVF space map CI and
  the IOVF data CI, and loop free chain in the IOVF space map CI.
  
  2)FPA CHANGE function has been modified to update error segment
  key table only when the table exists.
  
  3)FPA UNLOAD/RELOAD/CHANGE function has been modified to detect
  key sequence error even if the length of key is 1.
  
  4)The HFPC0061 message has been modified to indicate where the
  inconsistency between IAREA and OAREA is.
