Error description
When WebSphere's FRR routine BBORFRR got control during handling of an abend, it SDUMPX macro to take a dump. However, this resulted in ABEND S233 RC=10 and the original dump was never taken. ABEND S233-10 means that caller passed incorrect parameters in a request for an SVC dump. Systrace shows: *RCVY FRR 070C0000 A2DD01E8 84052000 >> orignal abend S052 ... *SVCE D 00000000_0139288C 00000010 A2DD0564 8423300 >> ABEND S233-10 PSW @ A2DD01E8 from FRR: ...\....BBORFRR 11/05/10 BBORFRR 18.27 H28K510 BOSS FRR Routine .BFRRPRIM . .\...<......h....2i0..x....3.. In this case, SUMLIST(StoreList(1)) was bad. SUMLP in SDUMP_PL control block is the pointer to the caller's summary list: SUMLP.... 0000236C This showed that a high bit was on in the first starting address. This bit should never bit on. 0000236C A69766C0 | wp.{ |

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server V7.0 for z/OS * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: WebSphere Application Server for z/OS * * BBORFRR routine encounters an * * ABEND233/ABENDS233 reason code 10 * * when a bad address is placed in the * * SUMLIST passed to SDUMP. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Since the bgvt address is the last parameter on the calls to connect and disconnect RRS to Websphere, it gets its high order bit turned on. If the SRB connecting or disconnecting to RRS takes an abend, the FRR, BBORFRR, gets control and invokes SDUMP with the BGVT address in SUMLIST. SDUMP issues an abend 233 reason code 10 because the bgvt address has its high order bit on.
Problem conclusion
The code has been changed to turn off the high order bit of the BGVT address when adding it to the SDUMP SUMLIST. APAR PM63265 is currently targeted for inclusion in Service Level (Fix Pack) 7.0.0.25 of WebSphere Application Server V7.0.
