Error description
ABEND0C4 in DSITUMSG at offset x'8E' due to REG10 containing EBCDIC. REG10 was loaded from REG11 is the pointer to the work area, but the CWB address is not at offset '230' as DSITUMSG expects, but rather at offset '250'. The CWB pointer was set up by DSITASKU which called DSITUMSG at offset '1BE0'

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of the Tivoli NetView for z/OS * * TASKUTIL command with PTF UA68557 (APAR * * OA41549) applied * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When a NetView operator executes a * * TASKUTIL command with some sort of * * error (syntax, authorization, or a * * request for information for an inactive * * task) the operator's task abends x'0C4' * * in module DSITUMSG. * * Additional search keyword: ABEND0C4 * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** APAR OA41549 added 4 fields to the middle of a work area that is shared by and explicitly defined in modules DSITASKU and DSITUMSG. Because the 4 fields were not added to DSITUMSG's definition of the work area, where DSITUMSG (called to put out a message for some error) looks for a parameter (an address) is not where DSITASKU stored it. Instead, DSITUMSG picks up a piece of a keyword name and uses that as an address, causing the abend x'0C4'.
Problem conclusion
Part DSITASKU is being changed to move the 4 fields created by APAR OA41549 to the end of the work area. In addition, commentary is being added throughout the work area to notify readers that corresponding changes need to be made in part DSITUMSG. Part DSITUMSG is being changed to add the 4 fields created by APAR OA41549 to the end of its definition of the work area. In addition, commentary is being added throughout the work area to notify readers that corresponding changes need to be made in part DSITASKU.
