Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS users with UI49544 applied. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Missing action tracking from UI49544. * **************************************************************** PI76965 shipped support for the CICS Healthchecker function at CICS TS V5. The CICS TS 5.3 PTF UI49544 omitted the ++ACTION tracking comment to advise that PI76965 introduced new CAT1 transaction CHCK, and that CHCK should be added to a user's CAT1 class and a RACLIST REFRESH of the class should be issued before restarting their regions.
Problem conclusion
UI49544 CICS has reshipped DFHHCC1 and provided the missing ++ACT tracking comment.
