Error description
Running DFHSTUP with EXTRACT USERPROGRAM=DFH0STXR and more than 250 applids abend4036 RC2 is returned by LE. The problem is that the CURRENT_NUM_APPLID which is addressed of the DFHSTUPANCHOR is greater than 250, infact it is x'FE'. So we have started trampling over the parmlist storage. The documentation indicates that DFHSTUP has a limit of applids of 250.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: DFHSTUP may abend. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** This problem presents as an abend when running DFHSTUP and may occur if DFHSTUP is processing statistics for APPLIDs where the number of APPLIDs is in excess of 250. In the customers case, the user program DFH0STXR was being used to extract data from SMF records. When the number of applids exceeded 250, DFHSTUP started to write over the parameter list used by DFH0STXR.
