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.

    RMF Monitor I:
    RMF fails with ABEDN0C4 in module ERBMFBSR when splitting the
    SMF 74.4 record for a system with no remote coupling facility.
    The problem occurs since ERBMFBSR uses an invalid SMF744RO
    pointer to calculate the number of channel path data sections
    for a remote coupling facility.
    Affected RMF releases: z/OS-1.12 an z/OS-1.13.

Problem conclusion

  • With this APAR, module ERBMFBSR is changed to use SMF744RO only,
    if the number of remote CF data sections in SMF744RN are > 0.
