AEY9 when CICS transaction attempts to access DB2

Troubleshooting


Problem

You are attempting to run a CICS transaction from a region recently connected to DB2. There are no other transactions currently running DB2 in this region. The program receives an AEY9 when attempting to access DB2. If the program is run under CEDF it will show a DB2 -922 when entering a SET CURRENT PACKAGESET command.

Symptom

AEY9 abend and -922.

Cause

Security is not set up properly for the CICS region to access DB2.

Resolving The Problem

Configure security for CICS and DB2. See Security in a CICS DB2 environment in the CICS information center for details. Without this RACF (or an equivalent external security manager) setup, the access attempt will be rejected by the exit.
