PH13281: DFHCSDUP OUTPUT FOR TCPIPSERVICE HAS MISSING SPACES AND FIELDS

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The DFHCSDUP output report when listing a TCPIPSERVICE has
  spaces missing for the fields DNSGROUP and GRPCRITICAL.  The
  same TCPIPSERVICE when displayed using CEDA online displays the
  fields correctly.  In DFHCSDUP output we see
  
     DNS-CONNECTION-BALANCINGDEFINITION-SIGNATURE
  
  while in CEDA we see
  
     DNS CONNECTION BALANCING
      DNsgroup      :
      GRPcritical   : No
     DEFINITION SIGNATURE

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS Users.                              *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Formatting error when DFHCSDUP LIST     *
  *                      command produces output for a group     *
  *                      containing a TCPIPSERVICE.              *
  ****************************************************************
  When using DFHCSDUP LIST GROUP OBJECT and the group happens to
  contain a TCPIPSERVICE the formatting of the header
  DNS-CONNECTION-BALANCING has DEFINITION-SIGNATURE concatenated
  to it thus:
  DNS-CONNECTION-BALANCINGDEFINITION-SIGNATURE
  
  The header DEFINITION-SIGNATURE should occupy its own line and
  precede the definition signature parameters.  The string
  'DNS-CONNECTION-BALANCING' should not have been output at all.
  

Problem conclusion

• DFHCULIS has been changed to suppress the writing out of
  DNS-CONNECTION-BALANCING from the DFHCSDUP report because it
  does not have any parameters.
