PI86889: A S0C7 ABEND CAN OCCUR WHEN USING COMBO MODE AND INCREMENTAL IMAGE COPIES

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• If Combo Mode is being used and an Incremental Image Copy is
  found during the timeframe, a S0C7 abend can occur in module
  ALADTL2 during the decompression routines because the correct
  compression dictionary was not being used. The processing of
  the incremental image copy loaded a dictionary but did not
  mark it properly. This lead to the dictionary from the
  incremental image copy to be used instead of the proper
  dictionary.
