Error description

  • The FPA Reorg function incorrectly reorganizes the UOW when it
    uses multiple IOVF space map CIs and the last used IOVF space
    map CI is only used by this UOW, which results in pointer
    errors, such as:

    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the maintenance for this APAR.         *
    ****************************************************************
    The FPA Reorg function incorrectly handled IOVF CIs when a UOW
    used multiple IOVF space map CIs at intervals, which might cause
    pointer errors.
    

Problem conclusion

  • When a UOW used multiple IOVF space map CIs at intervals, the
    FPA Reorg function might set "used space map last RBA"
    incorrectly.
    The FPA Reorg function has been modified to calculate "used
    space map last RBA" correctly.
