APAR Error Description / Circumvention

-----------------------------------------------
CRTPFRDTA fails with MCH1210 in QPMDJOBM procedure PROCESS_DATA
when processing large current wait time information.

Once this happened it continues on all subsequent collections.


CORRECTION FOR APAR SE46205 :
-----------------------------
When jobs use no CPU and remain in the same wait, the current
wait time associated with those jobs can become very large. The
MCH1210 happens as this large current wait time information is
converted to the QAPMJOBWTG wait time format. The calculation
has been changed to handle large times.

CIRCUMVENTION FOR APAR SE46205 :
--------------------------------
IPL


DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM FIXED FOR APAR SE45910 :
-----------------------------------------------
The active CRTPFRDTA job fails with this MCH1210 during the fall
daylight saving time change

CORRECTION FOR APAR SE45910 :
-----------------------------
Processing for the *JOBMI category did not handle interval time
going backward. The interval elapsed time calculation was
changed to handle this condition.

CIRCUMVENTION FOR APAR SE45910 :
--------------------------------
none
