PM48535: DFHFC0002 APPLID A SEVERE ERROR (CODE X'2451') HAS OCCURRED IN MODULE DFHFCDO

APAR status

• Closed as returned (APAR cannot be resolved without additional info from IBM or customer.)

Error description

• In the process of shutting down a CICS TS v4.1 region it
  discovers that the CFDT server is down. So, the region
  generates the following message:
  DFHFC7085 applid On a request to process CLOSE for coupling
  facility data table xxxx for file DFHRSTAT, it has been found
  that the server for coupling facility data table pool DFHRSTAT,
  is down. The server should be restarted.
  The Information Center explains that if this request is a
  close, CICS can complete close processing as normal. But the
  CICS region reports the following message:
  DFHFC0002  applid A severe error (code X'2451') has occurred in
  module DFHFCDO
  This message seems to be a bit server and this exception of the
  server not active needs to be handled better.

Comments

• This APAR is being closed with a code of RET/AU. This closing
  code indicates that the Change Team has been unable to test the
  proposed fix for this APAR and that no Customer was able to test
  the fix and provide feedback within a reasonable amount of time.
  
  To ensure that only high quality fixes are distributed to all
  Customers, we require every fix to be tested either internally
  or at a Customer site which is experiencing the problem. This
  will minimize any exposure to a possible PTF error which could
  later be more detrimental to the Customer.
  
  The APAR fix is available upon application to the Change Team
  via PMR. Once the fix has been satisfactorily tested by a
  Customer experiencing the reported problem, the Change Team will
  accept a NO-DOC APAR (which must refer to this returned APAR) in
  order to provide the appropriate PTFs.
