Error description
ABEND0C4 in ERBDUCPU UA80441 +616 when creating an RMF CPU duration report for a VM host system. . If ERBRMFPP is run using the DINTV option to create a CPU duration report from SMF70 records that are cut from a VMGUEST system at z/OS 2.2 and NOVMGUEST option is used for the MON I options then the ABEND0C4 will occur trying to access the Logical Core Data Section of the duration SMF70 record. The joblog for the ERBRMFPP job will contain message: ERB253I PPS: CPU RECORDS NO LONGER COLLECTED DUE TO S0C4 ABEND IN DURATION INTERVAL. PE Information: User's Affected: Users with APAR OA44101 applied (PTF UA76026 for HRM7790) using the RMF Postprocessor (PP) to create an RMF PP CPU activity duration report. User Impact: APAR OA44101 provided the RMF support for Simultaneous MultiThreading (SMT) on the IBM z13 server, but it introduced a new problem. Users of the RMF Postprocessor (PP) may receive an ABEND0C4 in module ERBDUCPU, if an RMF PP CPU activity duration report is created. The problem occurs when creating the PP CPU activity duration report from SMF 70-1 records, that are written by a VM guest system running with NOVMGUEST Monitor I data gathering option.

**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: RMF User's * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: RMF Postprocessor CPU Activity * * duration report: * * ABEND0C4 in ERBDUCPU (UA80441) +616 * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: None please install this apar. * **************************************************************** RMF Postprocessor (PP) CPU Activity duration report: ABEND0C4 in CSECT ERBDUCPU +x'616' (level UA80441) when creating an RMF PP CPU duration report for a z/OS system running as VM guest. . The problem occurs when creating a CPU activity duration report from SMF 70-1 records that are cut by a VM guest system running with NOVMGUEST Monitor I data gathering option. Module ERBDUCPU calculates a wrong length of the SMF 70-1 duration record. As result of that it fails with ABEND0C4 occurs when trying to access the Logical Core Data Section in the SMF 70-1 duration record. Affected RMF releases: z/OS-2.1 and z/OS-2.2
Problem conclusion
With this APAR, module ERBDUCPU is changed to correctly calculate the length of the SMF 70-1 duration record.
