    An updated version of ENF Event 71 was introduced by RACF
    APAR's OA39486 and OA39987.  This caused CICS to report an
    exception trace when processing one of these ENF Events
    and the event was ignored.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The processing logic within DFHUSES for handling ENF Events has
    been updated to correctly process the new version of ENF 71.
