  $HASPEQU is updated to specify HJE77D0 as the highest valid
  release that can coexist in a JES2 MAS.  If this APAR is not
  applied, message MSGHASP710 will be issued when attempting to
  initialize an HJE77D0 member in a MAS with an HJE77B0 or
  HJE77C0 member (or vice versa).
  
  In addition, the JES2 service level, J2SLVL, has been
  increased.  Releases of JES2 prior to HJE77B0 cannot coexist
  in a MAS with HJE77D0.
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• TYPE/RESTART(WARM) IPL/REQUIRED(YES) CLPA(YES)
  
  CLPA is needed only if HASCxxxx modules currently reside in
  the pageable link pack area (PLPA).
  
  $HASPEQU is updated to specify HJE77D0 as the highest level
  of JES2 that can exist in a MAS.  The JES2 service level is
  updated to indicate a new service level exists.
  
  If you do not have this APAR on all members of the MAS or
  have any MAS members at a level prior to HJE77B0 you may
  experience various problems under the following
  circumstances:
   - a member of the MAS is updated to HJE77D0.
   - the HJE77D0 member processes work, updating the checkpoint,
     expands the checkpoint limits, or stores output to SPOOL.
   - the HJE77D0 member is changed back to a prior release.
  In the above circumstances, if policies were imported on
  z/OS V2R5 you may encounter various errors attempting to
  process policies.
  
  With z/OS V2R5, the JES2 checkpoint version must be z22
  mode.  If an attempt is made to retroactivate the JES2
  checkpoint to z11 mode when a z/OS V2R5 JES2 member is
  active in the MAS the following message will be issued:
  
     $HASP445 UNACTIVATE REQUEST FAILED, An uplevel member
              is active in the MAS
  
  JES2 policy function is enhanced in z/OS 2.5 - new policy
  types are added and new attributes are available for the
  existing policy type (JobConversion).  New policy types are
  not visible to members at z/OS 2.4 level.  If JobConversion
  policy is created on z/OS 2.5 with new attributes not
  supported on z/OS 2.4, such policy will be rejected by
  members at z/OS 2.4 level.
  
  This APAR preREQs a number of APARs that ensure all
  downlevel JES2 members contain a level of service
  compatible with z/OS V2R5. Ongoing service in z/OS V2R4
  has created preREQ chain complexities when attempting to
  apply JES2 toleration APAR OA59665 and its companion APAR
  OA58190.
  
  APAR OA59665 / UJ03635 is a JES2 toleration PTF which
  includes the following HOLD(MULTSYS) information: This PTF
  must be installed and active on all members of a JES2 MAS
  before APAR OA58190 can be applied to any z/OS2.4 (HJE77C0)
  member within that MAS.
  
  However, the preREQ chain of UJ03635 can include PTFs that
  require the inclusion of OA58190; thereby contradicting the
  instruction of the MULTSYS.
  
  Attempting to apply OA59665 / UJ03635 with an EXCLUDE of
  OA58190 / UJ03971 will result in GIM30204E and GIM35905I
  error messages.

  options for their resolution can be found in the IBM Support
  Technote that can be accessed at the following URL:
