Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• With PUT0605 through PUT0607 did the alias to DFHMEBM from
  DFHMEBMX go away.
  You started getting I/O fetch errors on SDFHEXCI loadlib
  and it is always for the module DFHMEBMX.
  You noticed this alias was no longer used and only the DFHMEBMX
  is now in the loadlib.

                                              now

  ****************************************************************
  I/O Fetch errors are occurring against loadlib SDFHEXCI when
  attempting to reference module DFHMEBMX from this library.
  This is because CICS TS 3.1 EXCI code attempts to load
  DFHMEBM which is not available in the SDFHEXCI library.
  At previous releases of CICS TS DFHMEBM is defined as an
  ALIAS of DFHMEBMX in loadlib SDFHEXCI.
  This problem does not occur if SDFHLOAD is in the STEPLIB
  concatenation.

Problem conclusion

• The JCLIN for module DFHMEBMX will be updated by adding an ALIAS
  DFHMEBM statement.
