Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All Fault Analyzer Version 12 users. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: 01. Fault Analyzer report has 'no data' * * in the event list. * * APAR PM97966 * * 02. The user is analyzing a CICS SDUMP * * and is seeing an incorrect task * * state in the DS Domain Task Summary * * panel. Task State is shown as "R" * * when it should be "A". * * APAR PM96029 * * 03. Cursor is placed on the Fault Entry * * List display command line after * * deletion of fault entry if option * * to confirm deletion is in effect. * * APAR PM96373 * * 04. Fault entry duplicate count on the * * Fault Entry List display shows a * * negative or decreasing value. * * APAR PM97967 * * 05. When refreshing a fault entry that * * does not contain a minidump, many * * error dialogs will be displayed. * * APAR PM94889 * * 06. Abend S282-20 when exiting * * interactive MVS dump analysis. * * APAR PM97479 * * 07. IDI0047S from Fault Analyzer in * * MAPLMOD processing. * * APAR PM97404 * * 08. Fault Analyzer IDIS subsystem loop * * with IDI0131W message and high CPU. * * APAR PM97968 * * 09. Message "ERROR: IactLEabend() can't * * be invoked from IDIPDDIR!" issued * * when looking up abend code * * explanation from Fault Entry List * * display. * * APAR PM97964 * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF. * **************************************************************** 01. If the MVS RB chain can not be traced because of a missing page in the minidump, the available list of events was not displayed. 02. FA CICS SDUMP analysis is interpreting a CICS status byte incorrectly. 03. The original cursor position is not saved prior to displaying the delete confirmation panel. 04. The duplicate count is held in a signed halfword which is displayed as a negative value if more than 32,767 duplicates have occurred, or a decreasing value if more than 65,535 duplicates have occurred. 05. The missing minidump will cause a number of issues during the refresh, preventing it from properly completing. This error propagates, causing an error dialog to be created at each point of failure. 06. The Fault Analyzer ISPF interface was invoked with a history file name set to a non-existing data set. 07. Intermittent abend S0C4 in Fault Analyzer IDIDA MAPLMOD causing IDI0047S and an RFR dump to be created for recovery processing of the fault entry. 08. Under some XCF recovery conditions, the IDIS subsystem might loop causing high CPU usage. 09. This is a diagnostic message that was incorrectly left as a message to the user rather than being written to a trace data set.
Problem conclusion
01. Code updated to better handle the next RB not being available. 02. IDIECDS has been changed to interpret the task status byte correctly. 03. The cursor is now positioned correctly. 04. The duplicate count field is treated as unsigned, which allows for up to 65,535 duplicates. Once this limit is reached, the count will remain unchanged at its maximum instead of wrapping. 05. Additional error handling was included to consolidate and simplify the error reporting when a minidump is not available. 06. A check has been added for the existance of the target history file to prevent the abend S282-20 from occurring. 07. The MAPLMOD processing updated to correctly test the return from GETDSVOL processing. 08. Code changed to handle the potential XCF recovery timing condition. 09. The message is no longer displayed to the user and is only written to the trace data set.
