Error description
You are setting up a new lpar and moved a group of CICS regions to this new lpar. With this new lpar your number of CMASes will increase from 31 to 34. When you attempt to connect the CMAS on this lpar to the maintenance point CMAS (along with other CMASes), the region abends and terminates with the following message and a dump: . EYUCP0008E xxxxxxx CONNECTION SERVICES LONG-RUNNING TASK TERMINATING DUE TO NONRECOVERABLE ERROR . The dump shows the following trace exceptions: . 49 CPLT XLOP LPLT COM Excp 59 CPLTEXCP CPSM 49 CPLT XLOP LPLT COM Lv- 1 1024 CMASSHUT CPSM . where a trace point id 59 LRT_NO_ELEM exception is due to the async elements being exhausted. All of the async elements are for a MPSYNC CPSLSyn2 request. . The CMAS obtains a count of 32 async elements. If the EYUQXXFP ACTION REMOVE to the LONG_ASYNC_LLD queue is empty, a branch to label LONG_NOELEM will occur and the CMAS will shutdown with a CMASSHUT debug point id 1024 trace record and dump.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CICSPlex SM V4R2M0 Users * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: A CMAS may issue messages EYUCP0008E * * and EYUXZ0910I, and then shutdown, when * * connecting directly or indirectly to * * another CMAS, if the CMAS network * * contains 34 or more CMASes. * * * * The text of message EYUCP0008E will be * * similar to the following: * * * * EYUCP0008E Connection Services * * long-running task * * terminating due to * * nonrecoverable error. * * * * and the text of message EYUXZ0910I will * * be similar to the following: * * * * EYUXZ0910I EYU0XZPT Dump,jobname, * * cmasname, lpar,CMAS,LPLT, * * tasknum,TRAC,EYU0CPLT, * * date,time. * * * * Examination of the CMAS's auxtrace * * datasets will show the following * * trace records: * * * * Method Caller TPID Debug text * * ------ ------ ---- ---------- * * CPLT XLOP 59 CPLTEXCP * * CPLT XLOP 1024 CMASSHUT * * * * While this can occur anytime during the * * run of a CMAS, it is more likely to * * occur while the CMAS is connecting into * * the CMAS network during initialization. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: After applying the PTF that resolves this * * APAR, all CMASes must be restarted. Note * * that the restarts do not need to occur at * * the same time. * **************************************************************** When a CMAS connects directly or indirectly to another CMAS, both CMASes perform repository synchronization with each other, to ensure that if one is a maintenance point (MP) CMAS for a CICSplex managed by the other, that the non-MP's data repository records for the CICSplex are up to date. To perform this processing, method EYU0CPLT (CPLT), running under long running task LPLT, acquires a work element from a pool of 32 it allocates at CMAS initialization. If there are more than 33 CMASes in the network, and a CMAS is connecting directly or indirectly to all the CMASes at the same time, it is possible that the pool of 32 elements could be exhausted. If that occurs, CPLT will fail, resulting in the EYUCP0008E and EYUXZ0910I messages, and the CMAS termination.
Problem conclusion
CPLT has been updated to increase the pool of repository synchronization processing elements from 32 to 256.
