APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
The BIPEDIT macro, which is used during the customisation process as part of creating an integration node, contains the default substitution for ++TIMEZONE++, which has the value: "change ++TIMEZONE++ GMT0BST,M3.5.0/1,M10.5.0/2 all" The Daylight Saving Time (DST) extension, which is required, results in the following error when running the BIPEDIT macro on the command line of the JCL you are wanting to edit: **************************************************************** * Command in error . : change ++TIMEZONE++ GMT0BST,M3.5.0/1,M10.5.0/2 * * Invalid parameter * * Check for misspelled keywords or too many bounds (numeric) parameters. * * Error message ID . : ISRE292 * * Last return code . : 20 * * Macro executing . : MA13EDIT * * Press ENTER key to terminate the macro. * ****************************************************************
Local fix
The Timezone,DST value requires single quotes around it and this error can be worked around by editing the change ++TIMEZONE++ value in the BIPEDIT macro as follows: "change ++TIMEZONE++ 'GMT0BST,M3.5.0/1,M10.5.0/2' all"
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere Message Broker and IBM Integration Bus on z/OS using the BIPEDIT macro to customise the JCL. Platforms affected: z/OS **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The ++TIMEZONE++ default value in the BIPEDIT macro was extended to include the Daylight Savings Time (DST) value. Unfortunately, this results in the BIPEDIT macro failing and reporting an invalid number of parameters because it reads the comma separated TZ,DST value as two different values. The issue can be avoided by enclosing the TZ,DST value in single quotes, so that it is read as one parameter, for example: "change ++TIMEZONE++ 'GMT0BST,M3.5.0/1,M10.5.0/2' all" There are a number of resource name changes between WebSphere Message Broker and IBM Integration Bus Version 9.0.

Problem conclusion
The ++TIMEZONE++ default value in the BIPEDIT macro has been updated to include single quotes around the TZ,DST value. --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: Version Maintenance Level v8.0 8.0.0.7 v9.0 9.0.0.6 The latest available maintenance can be obtained from: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=849&uid=swg27006041 If the maintenance level is not yet available,information on its planned availability can be found on: http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=849&uid=swg27006308 ---------------------------------------------------------------
