Error description
A CICS application program has browsed a named-counter then failed with AICA while browsing temp-storage queues. Any attempt to access any named-counter via the NC Server fails with EIBRESP2 306 (abend during server processing of a request). No messages found relative to named-counter errors.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS Users that use Named Counter * * Services. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: An application that is browsing a named * * counter abends with AICA. All * * subsequent requests return with * * EIBRESP2=306. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** An application, browsing named counters via the DFHNCTR call interface, abends with an ABENDAICA, and all subsequent named counter requests return an EIBRESP2=306. As part of the CICS runaway abend processing, AXM does not release the request element. All subsequent requests then fail with INVREQ and RESP2 value of 306 as the free chain, SCRQSWTF, contains an address of zeros.
Problem conclusion
DFHNCIF has been altered to call AXM to reset the named counter server environment following a failure.
