PH10267: EVERY SIGNIFICANT OTMA EVENT WOULD HAVE A TRACE BYTE.

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as new function.

Error description

• Every significant OTMA event would have a trace byte in DFSYTIB
  or DFSYQAB blocks, and we will dedicate 32 bytes in each DFSYTIB
  and DFSYQAB to trace last 32 events.

Problem conclusion

• We dedicated the trace bytes in the OTMA control block (DFSYTIB,
  DFSYQAB, and DFSYPIP) to store the last 32 OTMA events. For each
  traced event, an one byte event ID is assigned. The definition
  of each event ID is defined in DFSYTIB, DFSYQAB, and DFSYPIP
  control blocks. Also, the dump formatter was enhanced to display
  each event with module name and event description. This
  enhancement is mainly to help IMS L2 and L3 trace the flow of
  OTMA message processing.
  
  The following modules and macros are enhanced to support this
  new OTMA internal trace:
  DFSACK00, DFSYCKP0, DFSYFD00, DFSYFND0, DFSYLUS0, DFSYMEM0,
  DFSYPSI0, DFSYQAB0, DFSYSCP0, DFSYSLM0, DFSYSND0, DFSYTIB0,
  DFSYRR00, DFSAOSW0, DFSYMOM0. DFSAOA00
  DFSAOAM2, DFS6ECT0, DFSYCLH0, DFSYPIP, DFSYQAB, DFSYTIB, DFSYDST
  and DFSYDSTC
