Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of IMS V12 ACBGEN utility that use * * V13 PSBLIBs as input are affected. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The V12 ACBGEN job terminated with * * RC=08 along with the following message: * * * * DFS0908I PSB --pppppppp-- IS NOT A * * VALID PSB * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: INSTALL CORRECTIVE SERVICE FOR APAR/PTF * **************************************************************** Message DFS0908I was issued to indicate that the V13 PSBLIB was not supported by V12 ACBGEN, when in fact V13 PSBLIBs can be used as input to V12 ACBGEN. PSBLIBs created on V12 or later are mapped by macro DFSIPSB. PSBLIBs created prior to V12 are mapped by macro DFSIPSBB. Logic that distinguishes these 2 different versions of PSBLIB was missing in module DFSDLB90. As a result, PSBLIBs created on V13 were being treated as those created prior to V12.
Problem conclusion
GEN: KEYWORDS: *** END IMS KEYWORDS *** Module DFSDLB90 has been changed to resolve the problem. Code has been added to distinguish PSBLIBs created prior to V12 versus on V12 or later in procedure Validate_member_loaded. This change will allow PSBLIBs created in V13 be used as input to V12 ACBGEN.
