Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• After restart a CICS Region JVMServer start was successful,
  but immediately after restart a JVMServer dump was written.
  A Transaction dump for CJSR with an Abend AXMZ in Program
  DFHXMAB is issued, provoked by an ABEND422.
  
  The following is showed in Java stack:
  
  <72503100>      Method:
  com/ibm/cics/server/internal/ShutdownResponder.waitForECB()I
  !j9method
  0x00000000724FC898
  
  The problem occurs when the ShutdownResponder thread is delayed
  for any reason. It uses a variable to decide whether storage
  should be allocated this variable is a global variable and when
  the c code is linkedited together this becomes a shared
  variable between two C files. If the CICSThreadFactory executes
  before the ShutdownResponder then the storage is never
  allocated which leads to the GPF.

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: 422 abend caused in the                 *
  *                      ShutdownResponder during initialization *
  *                      of a JVMSERVER.                         *
  ****************************************************************
  During installation of a JVMSERVER resource a GPF error occurs
  within ShutdownResponder.waitForECB() because its work area has
  not been getmained.  This causes an 0C4 abend, the JVM
  to crash and the JVMSERVER fails to start.
