Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS users. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: CICS reports an 0C4 in DFHUEH, * * and then terminates with * * DFHPC0409 - Abends ASRD and ASRD * * have been issued while processing abend * * xxxx for the same task * **************************************************************** CICS is called to ABEND a task while the task is in Global User Exit processing. In the reported case, an ABEND RLEL was issued while CICS was executing a XRMIOUT GLUE. DFHUEH suffers an 0C4 abend, trying to store a value into the CSA. CICS recovery processing detects the abend within DFHUEH while processing an earlier ABEND and terminates with message: DFHPC0409 - Abends ASRD and ASRD have been issued while processing abend xxxx for the same task
Problem conclusion
CICS has been modified to prevent the 0C4 in DFHUEH.
