Error description

  • Integrity Checker will cause ABENDS0E0 when it verifies DMB for
    Full Function database in IMS Online. It also will cause
    ABENDS0E0 when it verifies DMB in IMS Online and DL/I SAS region
     is running. When Integrity Checker runs in these conditions, it
     will fail to initialize AR register. As a result of this, DBRC
    region ends with ABEND.

    ****************************************************************
    This APAR fixes the Integrity Checker utility not to cause
    ABENDS0E0 when it verifies DMB in IMS online.
    
    When the Integrity Checker verifies DMB in IMS online and it
    verifies DMB in IMS online with DL/I SAS region or it verifies
    DMB for full function database in IMS online, it uses AR mode.
    
    The Integrity Checker clears AR registers before use. However
    the variable to use clear AR registers was pointed by some
    GPR register, the associated AR register itself was not cleared
    when used. As a result of this, ABENDS0E0 was occurred.
    
    This APAR fixes the Integrity Checker utility to clear the AR
    register and the GPR register before use.
