Error description
You are using the WUI to update the CICSPlex definition. You are changing Region Status server parameters and receive an SVC dump out of the CMAS. . Transaction WMGR is being abended with an AICA code for exceeding the ICVR value. . The messages in the log are similar to the following: . EYUXL0900I Starting Environment Recovery EYUXL0905E applid AICA IN XCLV, OFFSET ???????? PSW=078D0000 AC0E6606 EYUXL0905E INTC=0002 ILC=2 TXCP=2C7CA000 SCODE=S????

The problem is with WPUD, but the AICA could occur in any method that is part of the path that we happen to be in when CICS steps in to AICA the task. . In the trace, the MAL that fails will be for function VIEWCLST and with a DEBUG text of WPUDXCLV. . Additional Keywords and Symptoms KIXREVSVR

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CICSPlex SM V4R1M0 Users * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: You have an active workload with * * routing regions (TORs) connected to * * different CMASes. One or more of the * * TORs in your workload are not enabled * * for Sysplex Optimization. You update * * the CPLEXDEF resource describing the * * CICSplex, and one or more CMASes which * * manage the updated CICSplex receive * * abend AICA in the Workload Manager * * Long-Running Task, WMGR. The abends * * will occur in module EYU0WPUD (WPUD - * * Process Plex or CICS System Change * * Event), in EYU0XCLV (XCLV - Cache List * * Browse) called by WPUD, or in a method * * called by XCLV. * * The CMASes which abend have remote * * connections to TORs which are not en- * * abled for Sysplex Optimization. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: After applying the PTF that resolves this * * APAR, all CMASes must be recycled to pick * * up the new code. Note that the restarts * * do not need to be done at the same time. * **************************************************************** Method WPUD is called under the Workload Manager Long-Running task to process changes to CICSplex and CICS system definitions. Part of this process includes browsing the WLM Remote TOR (RTOR) cache list and activating or deactivating sysplex optimization for TORs which take part in a sysplex optimized workload. If a TOR is not currently enabled for sysplex optimization, this code is bypassed. A logic error causes the cache list browse to be restarted instead of retrieving the next record in the list if a TOR in the list is not enabled for sysplex optimization. This causes the observed abend, as the browse restarts every time the disabled TOR is encountered.
Problem conclusion
Module EYU0WPUD was modified to retrieve the next record instead of restarting the cache list browse when processing a TOR which is not enabled for sysplex optimization.
