Local fix
Remove UI21742/UI21743
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS users with UI21742 and UI21743 * * applied. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: EXEC INQUIRE FILE returns a wrong * * keylength in case of the extended * * KSDS file. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** EXEC INQUIRE FILE is executed to acquire an extended KSDS file attributes. DFHEIQDS is called to obtain the file information, and a new added file type FCMT_XKSDS is applied for an extended KSDS file. This new added file type FCMT_XKSDS doesn't get considered during keylength processing, which causes the keylength for an extended KSDS file is always reported as zero. This new added file type FCMT_XKSDS is also applied in some other scenarios, while the related processing to handle it is missed, which causes : - INQUIRE FILE returns a wrong type in case of the extended KSDS file. - Atom feeds based on an extended KSDS report an unsupported file type with message DFHW20161. Additional Keywords: msgDFHW20161 msgW20161 W20161 msgEYUXD0106E msgXD0106E XD0106E
Problem conclusion
UI21742 UI21743 DFHEIQDS has been changed to make sure the keylength and type can be reported correctly when inquiring an extended KSDS file. DFHW2FI and DFHW2FR have been changed so that Atom feeds can be served from extended KSDS files.
