    ****************************************************************
    01. Fault Analyzer is not passing the result of EXCLUDE
        processing to CICS.
    02. Trying to access protected stortage based on an offset to
        a CICS response code that doesn't exist in a table.
    03. pp_ke_stack is attempting to format LIFO entries when it
        should not.
    04. The CICS transaction abend code was incorrectly being
        processed as a CICS dump code.
    05. The check to see if Fault Analyzer had been disabled in
        IFAPRDxx had only been made for real-time analysis.
    06. The cross memory call to the IDIS subsystem will fail with
        message IDI0144E if HEAPPOOLS(ON) is set.
    07. Configuration module IDICNFUM was not being used correctly
        during Fault Analyzer's CICS startup processing.
    

Problem conclusion

  • 01. Fault Analyzer has been changed so that EXCLUDE processing
        will pass UERCBYP (bypass this transaction dump) if the
        abend code is excluded.
    02. New CICS response codes added.
    03. Logic in pp_ke_stack has been changed to prevent the abend
        situation from occurring.
    04. The CICS transaction abend explanation can now be displayed
        by selecting the abend code point-and-shoot field from the
        Fault Entry List display.
    05. The ISPF interface now checks IFAPRDxx.
    06. The HEAPPOOLS(OFF) option is now set in the start of IDIDA.
    07. IDICNFUM is now being used correctly.
