    ****************************************************************
    The Administration Tool ISPF and web interface issue a message
    FABX0542E and the z/OS back-end issues two messages DSP1136A
    and DSP1188A when the following condition is satisified:
    
    - IMS programs are found in the JOBLIB, STEPLIB, or LNKLST
    
    In this case, Administration Tool does not set up the SCI user
    exit (DSPSCIX0) library which is specified in the STEPLIB of
    DBRC region. SCI registration fails because DBRC API does not
    call the SCI user exit.
    

Problem conclusion

  • IMS Administration Tool has been fixed as follows:
    
    - Administration Tool always sets up all of libraries which are
      specified in the STEPLIB of DBRC region before RECON access
    
    However, the IMSPLEX= and DBRCGRP= keywords are still
    unsupported.
