  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When IOVF expansion, OAE checks whether *
  *                      the CSC (Cannibalized SDEP CIs) portion *
  *                      of the area contains SDEP segments      *
  *                      which are currently active or not. Even *

  *                      segments by the SDEP delete utility,    *
  *                      OAE fails when the current SDEP Logical *
  *                      Begin (LB) or SDEP Logical End (LE) is  *
  *                      less than the new SDEP START RBA        *
  *                      (Physical).                             *
  *                      At that time, the customer has to do    *
  *                      the following procedure, even there is  *
  *                      no active SDEP segment in the CSC       *
  *                      portion. If not, OAE will fail with     *
  *                      the FPX0094E message.                   *
  *                       - Inserting a sufficient number of     *
  *                         additional dummy SDEP segments such  *
  *                         that the LE is moved beyond the CSC  *

  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the maintenance for this APAR.         *
  ****************************************************************
  This APAR enables OAE to skip checking whether LB or LE in the
  CSC portion and move new LB and LE to the new SDEP START RBA,
  if the SDEP Delete utility is run to delete all active SDEP
  segments with QUITCI parameter immediately before OAE and there
  is no active segments in the CSC portion.
  
  This enhancements are being implemented as a result of RFE
  requirements 32579.
  
  This APAR also addresses the following internal defects:
  1. OAE abended with S0C4 in FPXBRPT0 occasionally.
  2. OAE original expansion miscalculated the allocation size
  of the extended original ADS.
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• With IMS V14 APAR PI73397 and this APAR, if the SDEP Delete
  utility with QUITCI parameter is run to delete all active
  SDEP segments and no SDEP segments inserted in the CSC portion
  after that, OAE can be performed to extend the IOVF portion
  without inserting the dummy SDEP segments.
  
  
  OAE has been modified to correctly loop the ADS DDNAMES to
  avoid S0C4.
  
  OAE original expasion has been modified to correctly calculate
  the allocation size of the extended original ADS.
