Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Dsect QSST in macro DSNDQSST is unnamed, it does not have a
  label on the DSECT statement and program written in assembler
  code cannot reference it.

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All DB2 users who assemble DSNDQWAS          *
  *                 or DSNDQWST or the macros included by them   *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: ASMA043E , ASMA012S , or ASMA017W       *
  *                      messages on assembly of application     *
  *                      programs that invoke either macro       *
  *                      DSNDQWAS or DSNDQWST with the           *
  *                      DSECT= YES|NO  parameter.               *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  The DSECT= YES|NO  parameter is used to control whether the
  structures defined in the macros DSNDQWAS and DSNDQWST are
  defined as DSECTs or as program storage. This apar corrects
  several assembly errors related to DSECT= YES|NO  parameter
  for several macros.
  
  1. Use of the DSECT parameter caused several assembly
     warnings ASMA017W (Undefined keyword parameter) to be
     generated.
  
  2. Use of DSECT=NO caused assembly errors ASMA043E
     (Previously defined symbol) and ASMA012S (Undefined
     sequence symbol) and some structures were still defined
     as DSECTs.
  
  3. The high-level structure which contains the substructure
     QSST did not have a name.
  

Problem conclusion

• 1.,2. DSECT= YES|NO  support has been added or corrected and
        the assembly errors are corrected for DSNDQWAS and
        DSNDQWST and structures are defined as specified by
        the parameter value.
  
  3. The high-level structure which includes substructure QSST
     has been given the name DSNDQSST.
