APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • ADDI is not correctly collecting source code from the
    mainframe. A program downloaded and logged as retrieved without
    error is corrupt. After about 75% of the data on the server
    from the mainframe we see part of another program injected into
    the source.

Problem summary

  • AD5105: ERROR WHILE IMPORTING THE DATA FROM ZOS MAINFRAME -
    WRONG DATA BUFFERS FORMAT
    

Problem conclusion

  • The DELETE segment in the get PDS members reply data was not
    being converted from EBCDIC to ASCII during the message reply
    routine.
    This was mistakenly omitted when the AD Connect agent was
    changed to use z/OS Unicode services to handle code page
    conversion.
    The DELETE processing subroutine was extended to include a call
    to the code page conversion routine and this solved the problem.
    

Temporary fix
