Error description

  • You are in the planning stages for migrating to EAV addresses.
The EAV Migration Tracker is active and shows the following
when BPXBATCH is used:
----TRACKING INFORMATION---- -VALUE--
                       JOBNAME        PROGNAME OFF-- ASID NUM
SMS-E:1 DADSM OBTAIN    CICS TSOUSER *PATHNAM   DA8   8E  18

SMS-E:1 DADSM OBTAIN    CICS TSOUSER *PATHNAM   DA8  286  26
.
Looking further this shows that DFHWS2LS is calling BXPBATCH.
This process is not compatible to use EAV Addresses which is
why the migration tracker flagged it.

Comments


    

  • The CICS Web Services Assistants have been updated to allow
reading and writing to EAV and non EAV datasets.

The Java version used to execute the Assistants needs to be at
Java 6.0.1 64bit Service Refresh 6 or Java 7.0 64bit Service
Refresh 5 to enable EAV support.
