PM83107: CEMT INQUIRE MODENAME CHANGING THE ACQ STATUS CAUSES THE MOD(XXXXXXX ) TO CHANGE TO MOD(* ) AND GIVES A "NOT FOUND"

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Do a CEMT INQUIRE MODENAME to change the ACQ status.  When you
  change the ACQ status this causes the Mod(xxxxxxx ) to change to
  Mod(*       ) and gives a "NOT FOUND".
   This ocurrs for only a select group of names.  Some of the
  output is good and some parts are incomplete. The SET MODENAME
  is not working properly as arg2 is not passed to DFHEIQSM.

  CEMT INQUIRE MODENAME is used first to list all available
  modenames. At the end of one modename output line, ACQ is
  entered to set this modename as ACQUIRED. DFHEMTD works as the
  CEMT command interpreter to understand CEMT command and then
  pass the parameter list to DFHEIP for command execution.
  DFHEMTD realizes that the ACQ request is a valid command from
  a previous INQUIRE. DFHEMTD then takes this request as a CEMT
  SET MODENAME and passes the argument values which contains
  MODENAME and ACQSTATUS in the parameter list. But CONNECTION
  must be provided with CEMT SET MODENAME as a required resource.
  So later, DFHEIP cannot find the resource without CONNECTION
  value and thus returns 'NOT FOUND' back.
  

Problem conclusion

• DFHEMT51 has been changed so that the CONNECTION keyword is
  maintained on the implicit CEMT SET MODENAME.
