Error description
Mulitple batch jobs are concurrently running to send API requests to the CICS CM Server. Intermittently, some of the API requests fail with error messages (condensed): DFHWB0101 ... CWBA The CICS Web Interface alias program DFHWBA detected a failure in program DFHWBBLI ... DFHDU0203I ... A transaction dump was taken for dumpcode: AWBM .. DFHAC2236 ... Transaction CWBA abend AWBM in program CCVWSDSH Examination of the EXEC INTERFACE BLOCK indicates that an EXEC CICS DEFINE PROCESS(PROCESS-NAME) failed with EIBRESP=108 (x'6C' PROCESSERR) EIBRESP2=02 (process name already in use). CCVWSDSH (SOAP/HTTP dispatcher) defines a BTS process and constructs the PROCESS-NAME using a counter for uniqueness. If the name counter server is not available, the program uses the EXEC CICS ASKTIME ABSTIME value to construct a pseduo-counter. However, ABSTIME is measured to the millisecond, and depending upon throughput and workload concurrency this may not ensure uniqueness. Additional Symptom(s) Search Keyword(s): KIXREVWJB ABENDAEZH
Local fix
Configure a CICS TS Named Counter server for use by CICS CM.

Examination of the EXEC interface block (DFHEIB) indicates an EXEC CICS DEFINE PROCESS(PROCESS-NAME) failed with EIBRESP=108 (x'6C' PROCESSERR) EIBRESP2=02 (process name already in use). Program CCVWSDSH (SOAP/HTTP dispatcher) defines a BTS process and constructs the PROCESS-NAME using a counter for uniqueness. If the named counter server is not available, the program uses the EXEC CICS ASKTIME ABSTIME value to construct a pseudo-counter. However, ABSTIME is measured to the millisecond, and depending upon throughput and workload concurrency this may not ensure uniqueness.
Problem conclusion
Program CCVWSDSH is corrected to include the CICS transaction's task number in the PROCESS-NAME to ensure uniqueness.
