    ****************************************************************
    During routing region (RR) startup the CMAS passes the address
    of a WTOR control block back to the routing region, which the
    RR then updates in method WNWK (EYU0WNWK).
    
    In this case invalid addresses were passed to EYU0WNWK, which
    in turn updated the wrong storage leading to random errors,
    which may occur hours later, if at all.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Method WNWK (EYU0WNWK) has been modified to validate the
    WNWK_TOR_DESC address passed from the CMAS. It now checks
    a) The address points to a WTOR,
    and
    b) the WTOR is for this MAS.
    
    If either of these tests fail the MAS will take a timely dump
    of the MAS, the CMAS, and the CPSM dataspaces to allow further
    diagnosis.
