    * USERS AFFECTED: All CICSPlexSM Users                         *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: CICSPlex SM Monitoring table MLOCTRAN   *
    *                      is generated with incorrect data. At    *
    *                      release 5.6 or higher, when this table  *
    *                      is used with RTA it may cause S0C9      *
    *                      abends to occur under the PEAD          *
    *                      transaction ID.                         *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF to all CMASes. This can be     *
    *                 done in any order.                           *
    ****************************************************************
    The table data in EYUTMMDT was invalid due to differences
    between EYUQMMDT generated data and the EYURMMDT copy book used
    by programs to read it. Several table fields, AMAXTASKS,
    CURRAMAX, J8CPUC, J8CPUT, LASTRESET, PEAKAMAX, & TERMSTG that
    are no-longer used were being displayed with zero values instead
    of not being available in REXX. In external copybooks fields
    were marked with -
    * CURRAMAX                                                    *
    * Invalid CICSREL = M212 V220 E410PLUS                        *
    
    At v5.6 the fields in EYURMMDT were reordered but those
    generated by EYUQMMDT were not.  Wrong data is used to populate
    the CURAVGRESP and CURAVGCPUT fields of the MLOCTRAN table with
    incorrect values. If either field was being checked by RTA this
    could cause the CMAS transaction to repeatedly abend S0C9.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The fixes in this APAR
    
    Ensure DSECT layouts from EYUQMMDT & EYURMMDT are identical.
    
    Ensure the "N/A ESA" bytes are contiguous at v5.4 & v5.5.
    
    Correcting the definition of PEAKAMAX at v5.4 & v5.5.
