239

Explanation

An error occurred during the processing associated with SVC 57, which frees a buffer or extends the unscheduled text (via the FREEDBUF macro issued either by the user or the system). The BDAM task recovery routine for this SVC determined that a control block required as input to SVC 57 was not in the user's region and/or key. This system completion code is accompanied by message IEC902I. Refer to the explanation of message IEC902I for complete information about the task that was ended and for an explanation of the return code in register 15.

System action

Message IEC902I is issued, specifying a cleanup code that indicates the results of the cleanup of resources attempted by the recovery routine.

Operator response

Start a generalized trace facility (GTF) trace, and re-create the problem. Reply to message AHL100A with:
     TRACE=SYS,USR,SLIP
On the DD statement for the data set in error, specify:
     DCB=DIAGNS=TRACE

System programmer response

If the error recurs and the program is not in error, search problem reporting data bases for a fix for the problem. If no fix exists, contact the IBM® Support Center. Provide the SYSOUT output for the job.

Programmer response

Insure the validity of the control block from which the address of the block in error was taken. The DECB and DCB were specified in the FREEDBUF macro as input to the SVC. Make sure that the DCBBUFCB field in the DCB contains the correct address of the buffer control block and the DCBDYNB field contains the correct address of the unscheduled list (if address space was virtual). The BCB or USL contain the address of the next IOB waiting to get a buffer, if one was not available. Ensure that this address has not been overlaid. Make sure also that the input DECB contains the address of the buffer being freed (DECAREA field) and, if a buffer was requested for keys also, that the DECKYADR field contains the correct address.
