OA26282: SETLOGON FAILURE 1461 WHEN APPLICATION USES A MODEL, AND THE MODEL WAS PREVIOUSLY VARY'D INACT THEN ACT 08/09/24 PTF PECHANGE

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• SETLOGON START issued by an appl fails with RTNCD = x'14'
  FDB2 = x'61' (decimal values 20 97 ).
  The application was started using a MODEL APPL. Previously, the
  MODEL had VARY INACT, VARY ACT commands issued against it.
  Residual inact flavor (RPRDEFLV) was left in the MODEL RDTE -
  that was copied to the new appl RDTE. This caused the SETLOGON
  to fail.
  Additional symptoms:
  If the failing appl is z/OS TELNET:   MSGEZZ6034I
  EZZ6034I TELNET CONN DROP ERROR 2014

  * USERS AFFECTED: All users of model APPL statements.          *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: SETLOGON for a dynamic application      *
  *                      fails with (x'14',x'61').               *

  ****************************************************************
  The problem is summarized as follows:
  1. There is an APPL major node active which has a model APPL
     statement defined in it.
  2. VARY INACT is issued against the model APPL minor node.
  3. VARY ACT is issued against the model APPL minor node.
     (The deactivate flavor is not cleared at this point.)
  4. An application issues OPEN ACB for a name that matches
     the model APPL statement.
     (The deactivate flavor in the model RDTE is copied to
     the dynamic RDTE.)
  5. The application issues SETLOGON START.
  6. Because the deactivate flavor is non-zero, the internal
     NOTIFY RU fails with sense x'08260000' and then the
     SETLOGON START fails with RTNCD/FDBK of x'1461'.
  

Problem conclusion

• ISTACCL1 is updated to clear out the RPRDEFLV
  byte when a model APPL minor node goes to
  connectable status.
