Troubleshooting
Problem
You receive message DFHKE0002 a severe error (code X'0506') has occurred in module DFHKEDS. Your CICS Transaction Server for z/OS (CICS TS) region also comes down. This occurs when you try to run a DB2 transaction.
Cause
The user ID for the CICS region has no UID.
Diagnosing The Problem
Following is the full CICS trace entry:
KE 0506 *EXC* - SET_DUB_DEFAULT_ERROR - FUNCTION(CREATE_TCB)
ATTACH_TOKEN(0F2036C0) MODENAME(L8) PRTY_RELATIVE_TO_QR(0)
PARENT_MODENAME(QR) EXEC_CAPABLE(EXEC_YES)
LE_ENVIRONMENT(LE_CICS) TCB_KEY(KEY8) INHERIT_SUBSPACE
(INHERIT_YES) ESSENTIAL_TCB(ESSENTIAL_NO)
1-0000 00680000 00000001 00000000 00000000 B8908FC0 00000000 04B703C0 ...
2-0000 FFFFFFFF 0000009C 0B0C00FC
Data 2 of the trace entry represents the DUIB results (FFFFFFFF 0000009C 0B0C00FC). The meaning of reason code 00FC ( rsn00FC ) is documented in the UNIX System Services Messages and Codes Manual as follows:
00FC JRSAFNoUID
The user ID has no UID.
Action: Create an OMVS segment with a UID.
You can also receive message DFHDS0002 A severe error (code X'0137') has occurred in module DFHDSIT.
Resolving The Problem
Define an OMVS segment in the CICS region's user profile and specify the UID parameter.
The CICS TS V4.2 information center under Authorizing access to z/OS UNIX System Services contains instructions on creating or changing a user profile for a CICS region userid. It also states:
CICS® requires access to z/OS® UNIX System Services and to directories and files in the file system. CICS facilities that require this access include TCP/IP support, Java support, CICS Web support, and task-related user exits that are enabled with the OPENAPI option, including the task-related user exit of the CICS DB2 attachment facility.
