Error description
HourGlass fix needed in order to add CICS 5.1 support. CICS51 CIC0501T/K
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All IBM HourGlass R610 intending to * * utilize HourGlass with CICS 5.1. * * Older versions of CICS will continue to * * be supported w/no visible changes. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: CICS 5.1 MACLIBs differ from those of * * CICS 4.2 in ways requiring modification * * of HourGlass to support CICS 5.1. * * Also older CICS version specific code * * comparision strings, used for detecting * * CICS calls for which no HourGlass date * * time adjustments should be made, do not * * match the CICS 5.1 code and would cause * * undesireable HourGlass date time * * adjustments, often matching previously * * reported (and previously fixed) * * problems with earlier CICS and * * HourGlass versions. * * Attemped use of previous HourGlass * * versions w/CICS 5.1 would cause * * HourGlass to ABEND in various places * * and at various times, and thus be * * unusable for the attempted purpose. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF. * ****************************************************************
Problem conclusion
*************************************************************** * FIX DESCRIPTION: Logic in the modules included in this * * fix level adjust for the differences * * CICS DSECT offsets between CICS * * versions at run time, with new code for* * determining CICS 5.1 offsets, where it * * differs from CICS 4.2. Some of the old * * code for doing this is also now better * * documented. * * Also CICS 5.1 version specific code * * comparision strings, used for detecting* * CICS calls for which no HourGlass time * * adjustments should be made, have been * * added. * * * *************************************************************** * PRODUCT ELEMENTS AFFECTED BY THIS FIX: * *************************************************************** * NEW ELEMENTS ADDED: * * None. * * * *************************************************************** * EXISTING ELEMENTS MODIFIED: * * SAGGLOAD(AGGCC ).#000010 2013/01/11.14:47:36.PM73129 * * SAGGLOAD(AGGCCGX ).#000009 2013/01/29.16:39:20.PM73129 * * SAGGLOAD(AGGCSQL ).#000006 2013/01/25.16:43:18.PM73129 * * SAGGLOAD(AGGDL ).#000005 2012/12/04.13:36:34.PM73129 * * SAGGLOAD(AGGDR ).#000004 2012/12/04.14:33:33.PM73129 * * SAGGLOAD(AGGFORMT).#000005.2013/01/25.16:46:30.PM73129 * * SAGGLOAD(AGGFRONT).#000016 2012/11/30.15:26:27.PM78106 * * SUBMODULE(AGGELIG ).#000044 2012/11/09.13:12:53.PM72250 * * SUBMODULE(AGGEXCLD).#000007 2012/12/04.14:57:48.PM73129 * * SAGGLOAD(AGGFTCH ).#000007 2013/01/09.14:02:13.PM73129 * * SAGGLOAD(AGGLSPC ).#000039 2013/01/29.16:41:01.PM73129 * * SAGGLOAD(AGGSC ).#000011.2013/01/30.12:55:57.PM73129 * * SAGGLOAD(AGGUC ).#000009 2013/01/29.17:07:32.PM73129 * * SAGGLOAD(AGGXPCF ).#000008 2013/01/25.15:59:19.PM73129 * * SAGGLOAD(AGGXTRUE).#000025 2013/01/29.14:19:44.PM73129 * *************************************************************** * EXISTING ELEMENTS DELETED: * * None. * * * *************************************************************** *************************************************************** * IMPLEMENTATION: * After installing the fix for this APAR * * it will be necessary to reexecute the * * HourGlass customization job. One or * * more elements replaced by this fix are * * modified by the HourGlass customization* * process. * * * * * Due to the replacement of the AGGFRONT * * module, it will be necessary to stop * * and restart the HourGlass product, via * * an AGGOFF/AGGON command sequence, to * * fully implement this fix. * * * * * It will also be necessary to stop and * * cold restart, any running CICS * * region(s) in which the fix is to be * * implemented. * * * * * It will also be necessary to bind * * the new AGGDL and AGGDR to any DB2 * * versions to be used with CICS. * * * * * To run the newly supported CICS 5.1 * * with HourGlass, one must also follow * * currently documented steps for * * supporting CICS 4.2, modified as one * * obviously intuits so as to be done to * * the CICS 5.1 environment, instead of to* * the CICS 4.2 environment. * * * ***************************************************************
