Error description
If a program (which is started with a Channel) issues: EXEC CICS STARTBROWSE CONTAINER PROCESS(PROCESS_NAME) PROCESSTYPE(PROCESSTYPE) BROWSETOKEN(BROWSE_TOKEN); followed by EXEC CICS GETNEXT CONTAINER(CONTAINER_NAME) BROWSETOKEN(BROWSE_TOKEN) RESP(RESP_CODE); the GETNEXT returns the containers belonging to the Current Channel and not the containers which belong to the BTS process, as expected.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS Users * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: STARTBROWSE CONTAINER ignores BTS * * parameters if there is a current * * channel. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** A Program which is started with a current CHANNEL receives the incorrect containers list when attempting to browse containers from a BTS process. DFHEIQBA incorrectly ignores the BTS parameters on the STARTBROWSE CONTAINER call because there is a current channel. This leads to the CHANNEL containers being returned.
Problem conclusion
Update DFHEIQBA so that it correctly processes the BTS parameters even if there is a current CHANNEL.
