  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • We have defined an IMS resource in SA z/OS policy database as
    type IMS and a subtype CTL. This results in the following
    timer being generated
    AOFRASCD AOFWRK12 AOFRSGST IDZBDCC,MSG,DFS994I
    
    We do not have IMSPLEX and we also do not have a valid subsystem
    ID that we can use. This means the timer doesn't work and
    issues an invalid command.
