Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• JVMSERVER enabled during shutdown of CICS region causing CICS
  region to hang during shutdown.
  
  CICS joblog shows the following message during shutdown of CICS
  region:
  
  DFHTM1786I CICS shutdown cannot complete because some JVMSERVERs
  have not been disabled.
  
  Prior to DFHTM1786I, CICS joblog shows:
  
  DFHSJ0917I JVMSERVER xxxx is disabled.
  DFHSJ0917I
  JVMSERVER yyyy is disabled.
  DFHSJ0917I JVMSERVER zzzz is
  disabled.
  DFHSJ0001 CICSHJVA An abend (code ---/...|) has
  occurred at offset X'11D6' in module DFHSJIN.
  CEMT JVMSERVER
  mmmm is being disabled and restarted by CICS because it is in
  an inconsistent state.
  An error occurred while terminating the
  JVM belonging to the JVMSERVER resource mmmm. Reason code:
  TERMINATION_TIMED_OUT
  DFHSJ0917I JVMSERVER mmmm is
  disabled.
  DFHSJ0005 AN UNEXPECTED ABEND HAS OCCURRED ON THE
  INITIAL PTHREAD TCB FOR JVMSERVER: mmmm
  DFHSJ0915 JVMSERVER
  mmmm is now enabled and is ready for use.
  DFHTM1782I All
  non-system tasks have been successfully terminated.
  DFHTM1786I
  CICS shutdown cannot complete because some JVMSERVERs have not
  been disabled.
  .
  The concern is CICS does not recognize the CICS region is
  shutting down and leaves the JVM enabled causing shutdown to
  hang until manual intervention was required to disable the JVM
  that CICS enabled during shutdown.

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS Users.                              *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: CICS normal shutdown hangs as JVM       *
  *                      server is being disabled and restarted  *
  *                      by CICS during shutdown.                *
  ****************************************************************
  CICS is in normal shutdown, it tries to disable all the JVM
  servers.  A T8 TCB is abended when CICS refreshes the JVM
  statistics and detects an error in the JVM.  The JVM server is
  automatically restarted by CICS because it is in an inconsistent
  state.  CICS shutdown hangs waiting for the newly restarted
  JVM server to disable.
  

Problem conclusion

• CICS has been changed to do not automatically restart a JVM
  server that fails after shutdown has started.
