    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: After applying the PTF that resolves this    *
    *                 APAR, all CMASes must be restarted.  Note    *
    *                 that the restarts do not need to occur at    *
    *                 the same time.                               *
    ****************************************************************
    When an API request to update, remove or perform an action
    against a CSYSDEF, CSYSGRP, CSGLCGCG or CSGLCGCS record, is sent
    to a MP CMAS running CICS Transaction Server V5.1 or higher,
    from a non-MP CMAS running CICS Transaction Server V3.2, the
    response returned by the MP CMAS to the non-MP CMAS may include
    an error value that was introduced at CICS Transaction Server
    V5.1.  When the non-MP CMAS receives this, it will not be able
    to translate the response into a meaningful API error code
    value.  Instead, it will return an API response of FAILED and a
    reason of EXCEPTION.

Problem conclusion

  • Resource tables CSYSGRP, CSYSDEF, CSGLCGCG and CSGLCGCS were
    updated to support the error codes introduced at CICS
    Transaction Server V5.1.  Method argument lists (MALs)
    associated with those resource tables were also updated to allow
    the non-MP CMAS to reference the new response error values.
