PH03211: PENDING RESPONSE/WAITING REPLY TOTAL SHOWING HIGHER VALUE THAN EXPECTED.

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• 1).  Pending response/Waiting reply total is calculated
  incorrectly where a client has set a TIMER value of 'E9' on an
  ACK request. In this situation there is no read following the
  ACK so it was being incorrectly counted as a message waiting on
  OTMA, and the predicted status in active sessions was showing
  as 'P002 - Waiting for reply from datastore'
  2). Pending response/Waiting reply total is calculated
  incorrectly where a client has set the IRM_F5 flag to AUTO,
  DEFAULT or SWAIT for a RTPIPE command. In these situations the
  messages were incorrectly counted as a message waiting on OTMA
  and the predicted status in active sessions was showing as
  'P002 - Waiting for reply from datastore'

  1. Pending response/Waiting reply total is calculated
     incorrectly where a client has set a TIMER value of 'E9' on
     an ACK request.  In this situation there is no read following
     the ACK so it was being incorrectly counted as a message
     waiting on OTMA, and the predicted status in active sessions
     was showing as 'P002 - Waiting for reply from datastore'.
  
  2. Pending response/Waiting reply total is calculated
     incorrectly where a client has set the IRM_F5 flag to AUTO,
     DEFAULT or SWAIT for a RTPIPE command. In these situations
     the messages were incorrectly counted as a message waiting on
     OTMA and the predicted status in active sessions was showing
     as 'P002 - Waiting for reply from datastore'.
  

Problem conclusion

• 1. Corrected Pending response/Waiting reply counts to exclude
     situations where an ACK Message has been sent to OTMA with
     a TIMER value of 'E9'. For this situation the predicted
     status in active sessions now shows as
     'P013 - Waiting in read prepare process'.
  
  2. Corrected Pending response/Waiting reply counts to exclude
     situations where an RTPIPE type request of AUTO, DEFAULT or
     SWAIT are found. For these situations the predicted status in
     active sessions now shows as 'P043 -
     'P043 - RTPIPE waiting on asynchronous output'.
