    This problem may be described as follows:
      1. TSO user USER1 address space was in the reconnect status.
      2. USER1 tried to Logon with the reconnect option.
      3. IKTLOGR received a control to process the Logon reconnect
         processing. It issued WAIT macro to wait for the IKTLTERM
         process to complete the processing.
      3. IKTLTERM received control to process the Logon reconnect
         processing. It issued STIMER macro to start the timer
         to allow the OPNDST to complete.
      4. For some reason, OPNDST process was waiting for something.
      5. Timer exit routine of IKTLTERM received control to cancel
         the USER1 address space. It issued LOCASCB macro to find
         the waiting address space of IKTLOGR. It found an address
         space control block. But it was not the address space of
         the waiting process of IKTLOGR. The address space of the
         waiting process of IKTLOGR was already terminated and it
         was not available. This caused the ABEND0C4 in IKTLTERM.
    

Problem conclusion

  • IKTLOGR has been changed to save the address of the address
    space control block (ASCB) in a TSBX. IKTLTERM has been
    changed to verify the address of the ASCB from LOCASCB with
    the saved address of ASCB in the TSBX before accessing the
    ASCB storage.
