Error description
An abend0c4 occurs in ERBMFBSR (+1702) when referencing the remote coupling facility section, SMF744RO. This only occurs when there is no remote CF on the system (SMF744RN = 0000) and the SMF 74.4 record gets larger than 32K and has to be splitted to multiple smaller records. PE Information: Users Affected: RMF users with fix for OA37826 applied User Impact: APAR OA37826 introduced this new abend0C4.
Local fix
None or do not apply fix for OA37826

The problem occurs since ERBMFBSR uses an invalid SMF744RO pointer to calculate the number of channel path data sections for a remote coupling facility.
