  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Receipt of non-HTTP requests against    *
  *                      TCPIPSERVICEs with PROTOCOL(USER) may   *
  *                      timeout unexpectedly.                   *

  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  The initial socket receive for a request arriving on a
  TCPIPSERVICE defined with PROTOCOL(USER) uses the SOCKETCLOSE
  value as a timeout. If SOCKETCLOSE(0) is set, the initial
  receive may timeout before data has arrived on the socket.
  This causes the request to be abandoned and the socket is
  closed.
  In releases prior to CICS TS 3.1, all socket receives of
  non-HTTP requests would use a default timeout of 30 seconds.
  
  ADDITIONAL KEYWORDS :- nonHTTP
  

Problem conclusion

• DFHWBSR has been changed to use the default 30 second timeout
  when receiving requests on TCPIPSERVICEs defined with
  PROTOCOL(USER).
