Error description

• Receiving the following errors while assembling SIT for CICS TS
  6.2
  
  ** ASMA057E Undefined operation code
  
  Additional Symptoms and Keywords:

Local fix

• You need to add the NOCOMPAT to your ASM step in your JCL to
  make it work.
  
  So in this step here:
  
  //ASM      EXEC PGM=&ASMBLR,
  //         PARM='SYSPARM(INITIAL),DECK,NOOBJECT,ALIGN',
  //         REGION=&REG,
  //         COND=(3,LT,ASSEM)
  
  You need to change it to the following:
  
  //ASM      EXEC PGM=&ASMBLR,
  //         PARM='SYSPARM(INITIAL),DECK,NOCOMPAT,NOOBJECT,ALIGN',
  //         REGION=&REG,
  //         COND=(3,LT,ASSEM)

  * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS users                               *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Assembling a DFHSIT with the            *
  *                      COMPAT(CASE) option results in ASMA057E *
  *                      messages and the job fails with         *
  *                      RC=0012.                                *
  ****************************************************************
  Lower case constants and equates introduced in CICS TS 6.2 to
  the DFHSIT macro cause the assembly of DFHSIT, when the
  COMPAT(CASE) option is used, to fail.
  

Problem conclusion

• The lower case constants and equates in the DFHSIT macro have
  been changed to upper case.
