Error description
Abstract: Rational Developer for System z (RDz) 8.0.3.1 - When CARMA Endevor Element is opened from MVS subproject, AbendsE37 occurs on CRA$NDVR.DEPEND file. This problem occurs when customer has multiple Endevor instances and the Element that is being opened has been moved from one Endevor instance/repository to another instance/repository. When user opens the element from the MVS subproject, the editor opens with the element source, however, the client remains hung in the 'content assist loading' process. On the host, the MSG3FILE indicates that the CARMA Endevor RAM is looking for additional dependencies on the system that the element was moved from but the RAM receives a 'not found' (API0000I PROCESSING COMPLETE - RC=00004 REASON=00006) on the element from Endevor. Following the not found condition, the RAM then issues a 'generic' (blank Element name) LIST ELEMENT call. Endevor returns a count indicating that all elements in the system are dependencies. The RAM then issues calls to get all the dependencies which causes the CRA$NDVR.DEPEND file to get extremely large and in certain cases cause an E37 or B37 abend. Local Fix: Rebuild Endevor footprint of the Element that was moved.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: 01.RDz users who access the Endevor * * repository using the IBM supplied RDz * * Endevor RAM * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: 01.When attempting to retrieve the * * dependencies for elements whose * * footprint is not correctly built, * * results in the temporary DEPEND DD * * dataset being out of space with an * * E37 abend. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** 01.When attempting to retrieve the dependencies for elements whose footprint is not correctly built, all of the dependencies are retrieved for all of the elements. This can result in the temporary DEPEND DD dataset being out of space with an E37 abend.
Problem conclusion
01.When the element information cannot be retrieved, there should be no attempt to retrieve the dependencies. With this fix, the dependencies are not retrieved if the element information cannot be retrieved from the CA Endevor repository.
Temporary fix
