Error description

  • An ORF job startups, detects that a CICS transaction has the
    target DB an issues a CLOSYNC thru TOSI to ensure a good CLOSE
    on the DB. Since the CICS transaction is still active, and the
    user does not have the INTNUM parm specified for TOSI, the
    command fails with a RC04 RSN01 and returns this to ORF. ORF
    does not issue any message or ABEND that indicates the problem,
    and the user can receive various ORF error messages.

    ORF received a bad return code on a CLOSYNC call to TOSI, but it
    continued processing without handling the return code properly.
    

Problem conclusion

  • This APAR fixes the return code handling of TOSI CLOSYNC call,
    so that ORF issues a informational message and retries the
    CLOSYNC call when a bad return code is received.
