Error description

• --- Service ---
  
  -Rational Developer for System Z Code Coverage report is
   incorrect. The PL/I application entry point in not being
   recognized by Debug Tool for z/OS.
   (PI28224 at 12.1)
  
  -Debug Tool message EQA9981I EQA00STO Internal Error 00000004
   received when debugging a PL/1 program with >255 secondary
   entry points.
  
   This fix also requires the PTF for Language Environment APAR
   PI36314.

  -ABENDS0C4 EQADCXXT+'1828'x in CICS.
   (PI37116 at 13.1)
  
  -An AT ENTRY CU breakpoint is triggering unexpectedly while the
   Enterprise PLI program referred to in the breakpoint is
   running, after it executes a PLI FETCH statement.  The error
   is occurring in an application that contains a combination of
   Enterprise COBOL and Enterprise PLI modules. The main COBOL
   program starts, and the user sets breakpoint: AT ENTRY B
   (where B is a dynamically called PLI program). The user issues
   GO, and the ENTRY breakpoint triggers correctly when B is
   entered. The user issues another GO. Program B calls another
   PLI subroutine which runs and returns to B. Then B executes a
   FETCH statement. The ENTRY breakpoint triggers in error after
   the FETCH.
