PK39424: MSGDFHTS1311 DUE TO BUILD UP OF TSQUEUES WITH QUEUE-NAME PREFIX OF '**......'

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When using BMS paging, CICS creates internal TSQUEUES where
  the name begins with the character string "**". Queue-name ** is
  reserved for BMS data. This results in a build up of TSQUEUE
  storage elements which are not being deleted.            .
  These actions happen when a user disconnects a terminal session
  rather than normal termination processing.
  This results in MSGDFHTS1311 applid Temporary storage data set
  is full and cannot be extended.

  When building a BMS logical message to be shipped to a remote
  system, DFHTPS can suffer an abend due to disconnection of the
  remote terminal. If this happens the BMS temporary storage for
  the logical message is not cleaned up by DFHTPS and can
  accumulate on the AOR.
  This can happen with a remote transaction sending a BMS page
  to its direct terminal, or if a transaction specifically routes
  a logical message to a remote terminal.

• DFHTPS has been altered to clean up its associated
  temporary storage queues after an abend during a BMS
  paging request.
