Error description

  • When CICS IA reports dynamic COBOL calls it shows the following
    incorrect information.
    1) Resources used by the called program appear under the calling
    program. Also the offset and program length fields are incorrect
    . For example if PROGA dynamically calls PROGB then any resource
    s used by PROGB are shown to be used by PROGA.
    2) The offset recorded for a dynamic call is incorrect. Also, if
    there are nested dynamic calls then the calling program is
    incorrect. For example, if PROGA dynamically calls PROGB then
    PROGB dynamically calls PROGC then we will see to entries:
    PROGA CALL PROGB
    PROGA CALL PROGC
    where as it should be
    PROGA CALL PROGB
    PROGB CALL PROGC

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS IA Version 3.1 users that wish to   *
    *                 capture "dynamic COBOL calls" in an LE       *
    *                 environment.                                 *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The CICS IA data contains incorrect     *
    *                      information for dynamic COBOL calls:    *
    *                      1. Resources used by the called program *
    *                         appear under the calling program.    *
    *                         Also the offset and program length   *
    *                         fields are incorrect.                *
    *                      2. The offset recorded for a dynamic    *
    *                         call is incorrect. Also, if there    *
    *                         are nested dynamic calls then the    *
    *                         calling program is incorrect.        *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF.                               *
    ****************************************************************
    This APAR provides the capability to correctly record dynamic
    COBOL calls in the CICS Dependency data and the Command Flow
    Data. The call will only be collected for LE COBOL program
    if the Language Environment option, CBLPSHPOP, is active.
    
    It will also report the correct program name, program length
    and offset for commands issued from dynamically called LE
    COBOL programs at EXEC CICS,DB2 SQL, MQ and DLI requests.
    

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

  • Support for "dynamic COBOL calls" is now provided for users who
    have the LE option "CBLPSHPOP" switched on.
