PM67816: ADVANCED ACBGEN OCCURS DFS0649W INSUFFICIENT FREE STORAGE BELOW 16 MEG WHEN TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DBD MEMBERS EXIST

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When the DBD libraries that specified to the IMS DD statement
  contain tens of thousands of members, Advanced ACBGEN gets a
  large size of area as DBD HOLD AREA, This large area causes a
  storage shortage problem. One or more DFS0649W INSUFFICIENT
  FREE STORAGE message appears, the corresponding PSB building
  failed, and the Advanced ACBGEN job ended with RC=08.

  ****************************************************************
  By this APAR, Advanced ACBGEN fixed the following problem.
  
  When DBD libraries that are specified in the IMS DD statement
  contain many members like tens of thousands, Advanced ACBGEN
  utility occasionally causes DFS0649W error and Advanced ACBGEN
  job ends with RC08.
  If DFS0649W error occurs, the corresponding PSB building is
  failed and the PSB is deleted from ACBLIB with DFS0587I message.
  
  Advanced ACBGEN utility gets a large size of areas as DBD HOLD
  AREA for internal work to reduce elapsed time and this causes
  DFS0649W storage shortage.
  
  Advanced ACBGEN utility resolves DFS0649W storage shortage and
  tries to start PSB build again with FABQ9993I message.
  
  If the PSB build succeeds with DFS0940I message, the PSB is not
  deleted from ACBLIB regardless of DFS0649W message.
  

Problem conclusion

• The following modules and macro have been modified to fix the
  problem:
  FABQTASK, FABQDRIV, FABQRPT3, FABQLMGR, FABQMSGS and FABQDSEC.
