Error description
Customer running an application, receives the following message: DFHIR3788 12/14/2006 11:12:31 Unexpected failure (return code=X'0000006C', reason code=X'00000000') trying to establish connection to system XXXX This is as a result of CRNP trying to do a CONNECT to system XXXX and getting back a return code 0000006C. . Backing up in trace in a dump taken at the time of this message, there was an earlier error. ZIS2 EVENT - IRC SWITCH SUBSEQUENT TO SYSTEM (xxxxxxxx) - RETURN CODE WAS 0000000C TASK-00176 KE_NUM-00AD TCB-L8003/00894E88 RET-B2953CAC The transaction is in backout processing when this occurred. The return code 0000000C indicates: IRERRINE Environment incorrect This is due to running on an L8 TCB, and not the QR TCB. All terminal related activity should execute on the QR TCB. also see Fin apar PK36522

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: DFHIR3788 Unexpected failure trying * * to establish connection to remote * * system. Return code X'0000006C' reason * * code X'00000000'. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** A SOAP request is processed which involves remote file access. The conversion of the response results in a failure which causes a backout to be issued. Backout processing must be performed on the QR TCB. In this case backout was performed on an L8 TCB and this resulted in a failure of the connection to the remote system, eventually giving message DFHIR3788. If the backout succeeds, a different problem may occur. The backout is issued on an L8 TCB. However, the latter stages of backout processing cause a switch to the QR TCB. When control is returned to DFHPITP after the backout there is a switch to ABTERM_ALLOWED(YES). A CICS task should never execute in ABTERM_ALLOWED(YES) on the QR TCB. DFHPITP now issues an EXEC CICS SOAPFAULT CREATE. If the task is suspended while processing this command it leads to message DFHDS0002 with code 0204.

Problem conclusion
Temporary fix
FIX AVAILABLE BY PTF ONLY
Comments
DFHPITP has been altered to ensure that a switch to the QR TCB is made for backout processing.
