Error description

  • After issuing a CEDA (or CEDC , CEDB) EXPAND on a group that
    contains more that 17 resources (more than will fit on one
    screen) you press PF1 to get to the help menu. You then exit
    the help menu and press PF11 to scroll forward through the
    menu of resources displayed from the EXPAND command.
    The screen will not scroll forward and you will receive a
    message indicating that an abend has occurred:
    DFHAC2206 Transaction CEDA failed with abend ASRA. Updates to
    local recoverable resources backed out.
    The log will show that this abend is:
    DFHAP0001  An abend (code 0C4/AKEA) has occurred at offset
    X'0000140E' in module DFHAMPEX.

    A CEDA EXPAND command with a generic group name is used to
    display the resource definitions that are contained in multiple
    groups.  DFHEDAD interprets the command and calls DFHAMP which
    calls DFHAMPEX to browse the CSD and return the appropriate
    resource definitions.  Once enough results to fill a terminal
    display have been found, the display is built and the parameter
    list passed to DFHAMP remains so that if the user scrolls to
    see other results, the browse of the CSD can be resumed.
    The user then accesses the CEDA help screen, before returning to
    the results of their CEDA EXPAND command.
    The user subsequently uses one of the scroll options to see more
    of the resource definitions present in the groups.  DFHEDAD
    calls DFHAMP again, passing the parameter list from earlier to
    continue browsing the CSD.  However, during the processing to
    build the help screen, part of the parameter list was
    overwritten.  As a consequence an abend occurs in DFHAMPEX.

Problem conclusion

  • DFHESP02 has been modified to ensure that the parameter list
    passed to DFHAMP is correctly saved and restored, around pauses
    in browsing the CSD.
