Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Client is seeing an error when reading the BSDS which changes
  them to single mode instead of dual. Client goes through the
  process to restore the BSDS, copies the old BSDS01, creates a
  new BSDS01 and does the RECOVER BSDS command but that fails
  with a CSQ9023E 'RECOVER BSDS' ABNORMAL
  COMPLETION error.

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Following an error that causes MQ to    *
  *                      revert to single BSDS mode instead of   *
  *                      dual BSDS mode, it is necessary to      *
  *                      follow the documented procedure to      *

  *                      The associated log messages may not     *
  *                      contain enough information to diagnose  *
  *                      the underlying problem.                 *
  ****************************************************************
  During calls to the VSAM PUT and GET routines to access the
  BSDS, messages CSQJ107E and CSQJ108E were issued. These provides
  a two-byte "Error Status" insert, but this is insufficient
  information to further diagnose the underlying VSAM problem.
  

Problem conclusion

• Processing has been amended to allow a diagnostic dump to be
  taken when a VSAM error occurs and messages CSQJ107E and
  CSQJ108E are issued.
