This section lists messages and abend codes that have been removed, changed, and added for CICS® Transaction Server for z/OS®, Version 5 Release 2.
The DFHCMACD file is not updated by PTFs that are applied to CICS. For the latest message updates, see the descriptions in CICS messages. The CMAC transaction uses the DFHCMACD file to provide online descriptions of the CICS messages and codes.
From CICS Transaction Server for z/OS, Version 5 Release 1, CICS messages have been normalized to remove duplicate spaces from the text of a message and leave a single space. Spaces before and after the message text are also removed. If you have automated processes that depend on message text, check whether they are affected by this change, and modify them as necessary to match the normalized message output.
