PM09608: COPY NON-VSAM FILE HIT IEC020I 001-4 AND TSO SESSION HANG

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• User tried to copy non-VSAM dataset from the File Manager panel
  3.3 (Copy Utility), but the FM first reported the IEC020I 001-4
  message,(ERROR1) and then the TSO session seems to be hang after
  customer continue to allocate the data set. The TSO user himself
  cannot do anything because the session seems to be hang, and the
  z/OS system is quite slow during this "hang" period (ERROR2).
  .
  When IAM is present on a system, File Manager always allocates
  IAMPRINT DD to a temporary dataset. It then issues a LISTCAT
  which would populate this IAMPRINT dataset IF the dataset was an
  IAM dataset.
  In this case the temporary dataset is empty (because the input
  dataset is a PDS) and because the dataset is allocated on a
  non-SMS volume File Manager issues a GET which in ERROR1 issued
  an ABEND001-4 and in ERROR2 finds some records and continues on
  the invalid assumption that it is an IAM dataset.
  This problem is not seen on SMS managed volumes.

  IAMPRINT work file is allocated but not necessarily initialized
  before File Manager reads it.
  This problem occurs when the work file is allocated on a non SMS
  managed volume.
  

Problem conclusion

• File Manager has been changed to ensure the IAMPRINT work file
  is properly initialized before it is read.
