PH71180: ABEND0C4 OCCURS DURING IPR RELOAD WITH MODIFIED UNLOAD RECORD LENGTH

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• After running the Unload utility, the length of the second and
  subsequent segment records of the unload records was manually
  edited to 32756 bytes.
  When this modified unload record is used as input to IPR Reload,
  the Reload process terminates with ABEND0C4.

  ****************************************************************
  An issue may occur when using unload data set input with
  HP Load, IPR Reload, or RGE (REORGINPUT=ULDS) processing.
  For non-HALDB databases (HDAM, HIDAM, HISAM, SHISAM), when SH
  or HD format unload data is used, the buffer size for unload
  record storage may be insufficient.
  In addition, the same problem can occur for all databases under
  specific processing conditions.
  This occurs when processing is performed without sorting, such
  as when SORT=COND determines that sorting is not required, when
  PARTINIT=YES or WFPHLQ is specified, or when PARTINIT=NO with
  DDEFPDS specified.
  In this processing, storage for unload records is allocated
  using GETMAIN, but size calculation is incorrect.
  Lengths for SH/HD headers, trailers, and sort headers are not
  properly considered in the calculation.
  As a result, the required storage is underestimated, which can
  lead to storage shortage conditions, resulting in abends such
  as ABEND0C4 or incorrect processing.
  

Problem conclusion

• HP Load has been modified to correctly calculate the required
  storage size for unload record processing.
