Error description

  • --- Service ---
    
    -Restoring some SET EQUATE commands with quotes from a save
     settings file does not work.
    
     For example, if this is done during a session:
    
     SET EQU SETKEY24 =
     "SET KEYS 24;SET PF1 ""PF1/12"" = SETKEY12" ;
    
     then when the session is restored, this error is issued:
    
     The partially parsed command is:
      SET EQUATE SETKEY24 = "SET KEYS 24;SET PF1 "
     The command element PF1 is invalid.
    
     (PM55037 at 11.1)
    
    -The Debug Tool PANEL LAYOUT command has problems if the user
     uses a SET EQUATE to specify new commands of L, M, S or E.
     (PM62667 at 11.1)
    
    -Program check AT EQA00LMS+'0000341A'x.  The error occurs when
     trying to execute a "fetch" statement in the program.
     (PM61774 at 11.1)
    
    -When using a COBOL verson of EQAUEDAT, the CICS region goes
     SOS because Debug Tool is allocating memory in a loop.

    -ABENDS0C4 at EQA00OHI+'4CE'x getting LDD process data.

    This PTF also contains the following APARs shipped via
    UK78251:
    
    PM57323:
    The DTU JCL parser does not substitute SET statements.
    
    This parser is used when you process JCL in various parts of
    Debug Tool Utilities (DTU), such as:
    
      2  Debug Tool Setup File
    
      8  JCL for Batch Debugging
    
      A  JCL to Setup File Conversion
    
    PM61751:
    DTSU is not displaying all DD cards parsed from the original
    JCL.
    
    If the following is in the JCL processed by the COPY command:
    
    //A          DD DUMMY
    //AA         DD DUMMY
    //AAA        DD DUMMY
    //AAAA       DD DUMMY
    //BBBB       DD DUMMY
    //BBB        DD DUMMY
    //BB         DD DUMMY
    //B          DD DUMMY
    
    DTSU shows the following:
    
    //A          DD DUMMY
    //AA         DD DUMMY
    //AAA        DD DUMMY
    //AAAA       DD DUMMY
    //BBBB       DD DUMMY
    
    This can affect these 3 functions in DTU:
    
      2  Debug Tool Setup File
    
      8  JCL for Batch Debugging
    
      A  JCL to Setup File Conversion
