Error description
You are running CICS/TS for z/VSE R111 and may encounter: DFHAP0001 An abend (code 0C4/AKEA) has occurred at offset X'00001DAA' in module DFHICP. It will produce an AP0001 dump. It will be followed by: DFHXM0310 A severe error (code X'1308') has occurred while terminating task number nnnn with transaction identifier xxxx. If the task had a principal facility, it has been released. The task is suspended indefinitely. Followed by an XM0310 dump. CICS cannot be terminated normally. This only happens after you applied APAR PM81883 (PTF UK93969). Additional Symptom(s) Search Keyword(s): KIXREVxxx

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS users. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: DFHAP0001 ABEND (CODE 0C4/AKEA) HAS * * OCCURRED AT OFFSET X'00001DAA' IN * * MODULE DFHICP AFTER APPLYING PM81883 * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF for this APAR. * **************************************************************** After applying PM81883 there is a small possibility of S0C4 abends in DFHICP due to a non-zero IC token being set after a RETRIEVE is done. Instead of setting zeros, the first 4 bytes at location 0 in storage is used. In most z/VSE systems this contains a value of zero, but that may not always be true. As the abend occurs when DFHICXM calls DFHICP, the task is placed into a FOREVER wait with an XM0310 dump, it will not terminate and CICS will not shut down normally. Additional keywords: ABEND0C4 ABENDS0C4 ABENDXM0310 ABENDAKEA DFHXM0310 MSGDFHXM0310
Problem conclusion
UK93969 DFHICP has been changed to always set a zero token value.
