Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In CICS 5.6 there is a problem in parsing multiple program names
  in the program list table, eg. if the PLT contains more then one
  program as shown in this example;
  
   DFHPLT TYPE=ENTRY,            ENABLE XMEOUT EXIT,
       X
                PROGRAM=(progname1,progname2)       INIT PHASE 1
  
  
  
  This will result in the following message;
  
  DFHSI1579D applid MODULE DFHSIPLT PLT PROGRAM (progname1 NOT
  FOUND.    REPLY GO OR CANCEL.
  
  The bracket character "(" is being included as part of the
  program name, thus resulting in the not found error.
  
  Additional symptoms:
  
  
  KIXREVTT
  
  
  DFHSI1579
  
  
  Program List Table
  

Local fix

• Code the programs as separate entries rather then a comma
  separated list;
   DFHPLT TYPE=ENTRY,            ENABLE XMEOUT EXIT
       X
                PROGRAM=progname1
   DFHPLT TYPE=ENTRY,                           INIT PHASE 1
                 X
                PROGRAM=progname2
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS users.                              *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: A CICS PLT which has program names      *
  *                      within parentheses does not identify    *
  *                      the programs correctly.                 *
  ****************************************************************
  When a CICS PLT specifies program names within parentheses, i.e.
     PROGRAM=(PROG1)
  or
     PROGRAM=(PROG1,PROG2,PROG3)
  CICS does not parse the program names correctly, and issues
  message:
  DFHSI1579D APPLID MODULE DFHSIPLT PLT PROGRAM xxxxxxxx NOT FOUND
  

Problem conclusion

• CICS has been changed to correctly parse PLTs which contain
  parentheses.
