    01. Application dump contains a huge LE HANC control block.
    02. Some WTO processing causes DBCS data to be sent to the
        console.
    03. BLW was not found due to a duplicate event near the
        required storage.
    04. LANGX mismatch checks not performed for inactive
        COBOL/5 programs.
    05. Incorrect register values picked up from CICS control
        blocks.
    06. Fault Analyzer does not correctly load the data value of
        HANDLE type variables when processing associated SYSBEDUG
        file, and does not show HANDLE type variables at all when
        processing an IDILANGX side file.
    07. Level 88 items not available for suppressed copybook.
    

Problem conclusion

  • 01. FA limits the amount of LE data that it will process.
    02. The WTO processing path is updated to only send non-DBCS
        data to the console.
    03. The algorithm for finding the BLW was updated.
    04. LANGX mismatch checks now performed for inactive
        COBOL/5 programs.
    05. Additional validation of register values incorporated.
    06. Fault Analyzer processing has been corrected to correctly
        display HANDLE type variables in associated storage when
        the side file is SYSDEBUG or IDILANGX.
    07. Level 88 hotspot removed for suppressed copybooks.
