    ****************************************************************
    CICSPlex SM VERBX EYU9D620 fails to format an SVC dump correctly
    when the dump contains a CMAS with a CICS SYSIDNT value shorter
    than four characters. A SYSIDNT value can be between one and
    four characters long.
    
    The error occurs due to a logic error when building
    parameters for the IPCS symbol service, leading to invalid
    symbol names being constructed.
    
    
    Errors seen may include:
    BLS18462I Symbol X'xxx' is not valid - no definition stored
    BLS18104I Symbol DCLTx nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn not found
    EYUDV0106E An error has occurred while formatting xxx
    
    
    This APAR also addresses a second problem.
    The assembled NAG table EYUTNAGA was built incorrectly, and
    must be re-assembled.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The IPCS formatting routines in EYU9D620 have been updated
    to build parameters correctly when invoking the IPCS symbol
    service.
    
    EYUTNAGA has been re-assembled.
