A CCTL will specify DRA function level 3 to indicate support of DRA options. No new DRA option is being implemented in V11 with this apar, only acceptance of the new DRA function level and the DRA options fields in the PAPL, and the DFSPRP macro. ** NOTE ** CICS TS 4.2 invokes the DRA at function level 3. CICS TS 4.2 users of IMS V11 will require this apar. Additional symptoms: DFHDB8111 E mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss xxxxxxxx CONNECTION HAS FAILED. DBCTL RETURN CODE 36. rc36 MSGDFHDB8111
Problem conclusion
Temporary fix
Comments
This change introduces DRA function level 3 which adds support for DRA options. No new DRA options are being introduced with this apar. Any future DRA enhancements will be introduced via DRA options. This should eliminate the need for changes on lower level IMS releases to coexist/tolerate enhancements introduced in higher releases. This allows CCTLs (ie CICS) to exploit new DRA function without needing to first know the version of IMS to which it is connecting. This can be accomplished in the following manner. The CCTL issues a DRA INIT request with function level 3 and indicates which functions of the DRA to activate if available via the PAPLDROP settings. On return from the INIT call, PAPLDLEV will contain feedback on what options have been activated. Module and macro changes: DFSPRRC0 - Modified to accept DRA function level 3 and set PAPLDLEV accordingly DFSPZP00 - Recompiled to pick up DFSPRP macro changes DFSPAC - Add function level 3 and redefine DRA options field DFSPRP - Reserve and init to 0 potential options fields for control block generation. DFSPAPL - Add new field PAPLDROP for DRA options. Define additional flag in PAPLDLEV DFSAERA0 - Recompiled to pick up DFSPAC macro changes DFSAERG0 - Recompiled to pick up DFSPAC macro changes DFSAERI0 - Recompiled to pick up DFSPAC macro changes DFSPRA10 - Recompiled to pick up DFSPAC macro changes
