  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • EYU9XLRS was not modified as part of the upgrade to V6.1.
    This means that when it is assembled with the R6.1 codebase
    the program code to select earlier releases is not included.
    
    This means that when DFHRSSR fails and calls EYU9XLRS to produce
    a dump it always runs the V6.1 code, not the level appropriate
    for earlier CICS releases.

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of CPSM V6.1 with an earlier release   *
    *                 of CICS.                                     *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When EYU9XLRS is called to take a dump  *
    *                      including ESSS and the data spaces it   *
    *                      incorrectly determines the release      *
    *                      dependent module it should call for     *
    *                      earlier releases. This can lead to      *
    *                      errors in the data dumped.              *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF to all MASes. This can be done *
    *                 in any order.                                *
    ****************************************************************
    When a MAS encounters an abend it calls DFHRSSR which links to
    EYU9XLRS to take a dump of the ESSS and data spaces along with
    the CICS region.
    
    If CPSM is at V6.1 and CICS is at an earlier version then the
    wrong version of EYU9XLRS is used. EYU9XLRS was assembled
    without the code required to check which CICS version it is
    running on. It therefore always runs the V6.1 dump routine which
    may collect incorrect data in an earlier version.
    

Problem conclusion

  • EYU9XLRS has been modified to include the code to determine the
    CICS release and call the release specific module where
    appropriate.
