PH43815: INVALID IMS LOG RECORD COUNTS IN SYSPRINT

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Under some circumstances, an invalid CEX record may be counted
  in the UNPRC (Unprocessed) record count. When reporting the CEX
  and IMS record counts in the SYSPRINT output the UNPRC counter
  drives processing for IMS log record counts, even when no IMS
  logs were provided as input, resulting in invalid IMS log record
  counts being reported.
  
  Note: This APAR is being forward fitted to IMSPA V450 via
  APAR PH43942.

  Under some circumstances, an invalid CEX record may be
  counted in the UNPRC (Unprocessed) record count. When
  reporting the CEX and IMS record counts in the SYSPRINT
  output the UNPRC counter drives processing for IMS log
  record counts, even when no IMS logs were provided as
  as input, resulting in invalid IMS log record counts
  being reported.
  

Problem conclusion

• 1. When reporting IMS and CEX log record counts, ensure that
     input files were processed for each type, and that valid
     record counts are available for reporting.
  
  2. Tighten validation processing around the Unprocessed (UNPRC)
     record count to accumulate only records read from an input
     log.
