PH52012: THE /CCFMOD ONLINE CHANGE PROCEDURE TERMINATES WITH MSGCCF0331E AND MSGCCF0335E IN A MANAGED ACB ENVIRONMENT

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• With the /CCFMOD online change procedure, CCF determines the
  success or failure of the /MOD PREPARE command by the DFS
  message that was included in the command response.
  However, when Managed ACBs is enabled, CCF receives an
  unexpected DFS3780I message. As a result, when an online change
  job using the /CCFMOD online change procedure was executed in
  the managed ACBs environment, CCF determined that the /MOD
  PREPARE command had failed and terminated the online change job
  without issuing a /MOD COMMIT command.
  Also, in addition, if the command retry option is specified, the
  online change job will terminate without issuing the /MOD COMMIT
  command after the /MOD PREPARE command is retried.

  ****************************************************************
  If the following conditions are met, since the IMS Command
  Control Facility determines incorrectly that the /MOD PREPARE
  command is not issued successfully, a batch job to perform
  automatic online change processing (/CCFMOD) unexpectedly
  terminates.
  - APPC/IMS or IMS OM is specified for Command Routing Technique
    in CCF IMS System Information.
  - IMS Managed ACBs is enabled.
  If Command Retry Options is specified in CCF Global Options,
  IMS Command Control Facility retries the /MOD PREPARE command.
  When APPC/IMS is specified, the CCF0331E and CCF0335E messages
  are output, and when IMS OM is specified, the CCF7421E message
  is output.
  The batch job terminates with ABEND U4070 or a non-zero return
  code, according the specification of /CCFMOD Failures in CCF
  Global Options.
