APAR Error Description / Circumvention
-----------------------------------------------
Calls to the IBMi crypto library loop as a result of stale
pointer references from IBM i SLIC compaction operation.
CORRECTION FOR APAR MA45865 :
-----------------------------
Systems running V7R2 and later on a POWER 8 system that have VMX
operations accessible to the cryptographic library include
references to the VMX operating functions. Upon compaction of
SLIC, should it occur, this may yield stale pointers resulting
in looping or other possible errors.
CIRCUMVENTION FOR APAR MA45865 :
--------------------------------
None.
Activation Instructions
