Error description

  • When using a CICS 5.5 Explorer connected to a
    
    CICS TS 5.6 WUI and displaying a resource group that
    
    contained a resource type of  DUMPCODE, the Explorer
    
    display does not include groups containing DUMPCODE.
    
    Changes are also needed to CPSM CSDINLST table, so that
    
    CICS Explorer can better display the DFHCSD Dumpcode
    definitions.

Problem summary

  • When using a CICS 5.5 Explorer connected to a CICS TS 5.6 WUI
    and displaying a resource group that contained a resource type
    of DUMPCODE, the Explorer display does not include groups
    containing DUMPCODE.  The DUMPCODES are listed under an element
    called "_UNEXPECTED".
    .
    The CICSPlex SM table CSDINGRP does not include the DUMPCODE
    resource type.  This means that CICS Explorer cannot be used to
    display the DUMPCODE resources.
    .
    The CICSPlex SM support for this change has been provided by
    CICSPlex SM 5.6 apar: PH39651.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The CICSPlex SM tableCSDINGRP now includes the DUMPCODE resource
    type.  The CICS Explorer codegen has been updated to include
    DUMPCODE correctly as an enum within CSDINGRP.
    .
    In order to resolve the issue, the CICSPlex SM 5.6 APAR: PH39651
    must also be applied. After applying the PTF for APAR PH39651,
    all CICSplex SM CMAS and MAS regions, including WUI server
    regions, should be restarted to activate the change. The
    restarts do not need to occur at the same time.
    .
    This fix will be made available in Version 5.5.19 of the CICS
    Explorer.
    .
