    ****************************************************************
    When reporting on remote terminal statistics using DFH0STAT, an
    abend 0C9 may occur in DFH$STCN or the 'Total idle time awaiting
    reuse' may be reported as an unpredictable value. This is caused
    by a timestamp value being stored in the TCT prefix instead of
    an elapsed time value. The value is too large to be processed
    by DFH$STCN, so the abend or incorrect output occurs.

Problem conclusion

  • DFHBSTZ1 and DFHBSTZ2 have been changed to store an elapsed time
    in the TCT prefix field TCTV_TOTAL_IDLETIME instead of a
    timestamp.
