Error description
An abend can occur in either the dynamic array support or the heap memory support, if a dynamic array exists that has many records. This is caused by the fullword alignment of the dynamic array records. If the record length needs 1, 2 or 3 bytes to align to a fullword boundary, then the calculation during a garbage collection will be wrong by the number of alignment bytes times the number of dynamic array records. The calculation will get too few bytes and can eventually cause an 0C4 abend in heap memory management.
