Closed as program error.
Error description
1). Pending response/Waiting reply total is calculated incorrectly where a client has set a TIMER value of 'E9' on an ACK request. In this situation there is no read following the ACK so it was being incorrectly counted as a message waiting on OTMA, and the predicted status in active sessions was showing as 'P002 - Waiting for reply from datastore' 2). Pending response/Waiting reply total is calculated incorrectly where a client has set the IRM_F5 flag to AUTO, DEFAULT or SWAIT for a RTPIPE command. In these situations the messages were incorrectly counted as a message waiting on OTMA and the predicted status in active sessions was showing as 'P002 - Waiting for reply from datastore' The IMS Connect Extensions v3.1 forward-fit for this APAR is PH09156.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of IMS Connect Extensions V2.4 * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Pending response/Waiting reply total * * showing higher value than expected. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** 1. Pending response/Waiting reply total is calculated incorrectly where a client has set a TIMER value of 'E9' on an ACK request. In this situation there is no read following the ACK so it was being incorrectly counted as a message waiting on OTMA, and the predicted status in active sessions was showing as 'P002 - Waiting for reply from datastore'. 2. Pending response/Waiting reply total is calculated incorrectly where a client has set the IRM_F5 flag to AUTO, DEFAULT or SWAIT for a RTPIPE command. In these situations the messages were incorrectly counted as a message waiting on OTMA and the predicted status in active sessions was showing as 'P002 - Waiting for reply from datastore'.
Problem conclusion
1. Corrected Pending response/Waiting reply counts to exclude situations where an ACK Message has been sent to OTMA with a TIMER value of 'E9'. For this situation the predicted status in active sessions now shows as 'P013 - Waiting in read prepare process'. 2. Corrected Pending response/Waiting reply counts to exclude situations where an RTPIPE type request of AUTO, DEFAULT or SWAIT are found. For these situations the predicted status in active sessions now shows as 'P043 - 'P043 - RTPIPE waiting on asynchronous output'.
