Error description
In the plex environment, all the AP Specifications were associated with a Primary and Secondary CMAS. When the CMASes were upgraded from 5.4 to 5.5, the association between the APSpec and the secondary CMAS were missing. In the WUI, none of the APSpecs showed there was an association with a Secondary CMAS. And when trying to add the Secondary CMAS, an error stating there was an duplicate associate occurred, which indicates that the original association is there in the plex.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CPSM users for V5R2M0, V5R3M0, V5R4M0, * * and V5R5M0. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Analysis Point Specification CMAS links * * are lost from the MP Data Repository * * when upgrading a non-MP CMAS. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: All Maintenance Point CMAS regions should * * be restarted to activate the fix. * **************************************************************** Analysis Point Specification CMAS links are lost from the Maintenance Point (MP) Data Repository when upgrading a non-MP CMAS. This occurs when the non-MP CMAS is defined as a Primary or Secondary CMAS on an RTA Analysis Point Specification in a CICSplex assigned to the non-MP CMAS. When a non-MP data repository is upgraded using the EYU9XDUT utility, all CICSplex context records are removed from the repository. When that CMAS next reconnects to the maintenance point for a CICSplex it manages, the upgraded version of these CICSplex context records will be restored. To achieve this, the MP CMAS will temporarily remove the non-MP CMAS from the CICSplex, then assign it back again. When the CMASCPLX record is deleted during the unassign operation, associated CMDMPAPS and CMDMSAPS (primary/secondary APSPEC relationships) will also be deleted from the MP data repository due to referential integrity processing. These records are not restored when the CICSplex is assigned back to the non-MP CMAS. This issue only affects Primary (CMDMPAPS) and Secondary (CMDMSAPS) CMAS relationships for RTA Analysis Point Specifications (APSPEC). The same loss of CMDMPAPS or CMDMSAPS records may occur for other scenarios involving an automation delete and re-add of a CICSplex to a non-MP CMAS by CPSM method CPLT.
Problem conclusion
CICSplex SM has been updated to ensure that Primary and Secondary CMAS relationships for an RTA Analysis Point Specification are retained across an automatic unassign and reassign of a CICSplex by method CPLT. CPSM methods CPLT, CCAP, CCDP and PSLT were all updated. Affected records will be stored temporarily in a queue, allowing them to be restored after the CICSplex assign operation completes. The CICSPlex SM Messages and Codes manual, version V5.2 (GC34-7310-00), V5.3 (GC34-7445-00), V5.4 and V5.5 will all be updated with new message EYUCP0208: EYUCP0208E <applid> Delete and re-add of CICSplex <plexname> from CMAS <cmasname> failed. The <primary|secondary> CMAS association to APSPEC <apspec> may have been lost. This message will be issued to the EYULOG of the maintenance point CMAS, only if CPSM is not able to fully restore the CMDMPAPS or CMDMSAPS records. This will be accompanied by message EYUCP0023E, indicating a failure during data repository synchronisation.
