PK61294: WITH DFHLOG LOG OF DUMMY IN CMAS EYUDREP FILE CAN NOT BE DEFINED AS A RECOVERABLE FILE

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• If DFHLOG log is defined as dummy in the CMAS then the EYUDREP
  file can not be a recoverable file.  If DFHLOG log is set up as
  a real log in the CMAS then EYUDREP file can be a recoverable
  file.

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:    You observe resources missing from   *
  *                      the CMAS's data repository, and incon-  *
  *                      sistent BAS definitions stored in the   *
  *                      repository while DFHLOG in the CMAS     *
  *                      is defined as TYPE=DUMMY.               *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:    After applying the PTF that resolves this *
  *                 APAR, all CMASes and MASes must be recycled  *
  *                 to pick up the new code.  Note that the      *
  *                 restarts do not need to be done at the same  *
  *                 time.                                        *
  *                    Before starting a CICSPlex SM CMAS with   *
  *                 libraries containing the fix for this APAR,  *
  *                 you must insure that the DFHLOG JOURNALMODEL *
  *                 for the CMAS specifies TYPE(MVS). If the     *
  *                 DFHLOG JOURNALMODEL used by a CMAS does not  *
  *                 specify TYPE(MVS), the CMAS will terminate   *
  *                 after issuing message                        *
  *                 .                                            *
  *                   EYUXD0113E  Data Repository initialization *
  *                               failed.                        *
  *                 .                                            *
  *                 Either Coupling Facility or DASD-Only log    *
  *                 streams may be specified.                    *
  *                    Refer to CICS Transaction Server for z/OS *
  *                 Installation Guide, Version 3 Release 1      *
  *                 (GC34-6426-05), Chapter 25 "Defining the     *

  *                 information on how to define logstreams for  *

  ****************************************************************
     CPSM requires that the EYUDREP file be recoverable, so that
  incomplete changes can be backed out if a repository update
  fails or an exception occurs during processing associated with
  a repository update (for example, BAS Inconsistent Set or
  Inconsistent Scope checking).  Otherwise, the repository may
  be updated with invalid resources, or resources may be deleted
  without any audit trail.  At one time module EYU0XDIN (XDIN -
  Data Repository Initialization) checked to insure that DFHLOG
  was not associated with a dummy logstream, but this check was
  bypassed during development of a prior release of CPSM so that
  CMASes could run on processors which did not support the MVS
  logger.
  

Problem conclusion

•    The check to insure that DFHLOG is not associated with a
  dummy logstream is restored.  In addition, termination methods
  for several CPSM subcomponents were updated to avoid abends due
  to unavailable structures when a CMAS terminates because of an
  exception during initialization.

Comments

•    You observe resources missing from
  the CMAS's data repository, and incon-
  sistent BAS definitions stored in the
  repository while DFHLOG in the CMAS
  is defined as TYPE=DUMMY.
