Error description

• If CPSM program resource EYUTVTME is not defined in CICS region,
  and transaction COVC attempts to issue a message, it will get
  into a loop and cause the region to go SOS.  The storage will be
  out of the ECDSA.  Browsing the storage you will see the
  following in the eye-catcher area
  .
        EYUBVKSBSTAKHDR
  .
  and repeated messages
  .
        EYUVS0120E UNABLE TO LOAD RESOURCE TABLE (EYUTVTME).

  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:    The trace record written when an     *
  *                      overflow stack element is acquired does *
  *                      not identify the calling method, making *
  *                      it difficult to determine why the ini-  *
  *                      tial stack area was insufficient.       *
  *                         The CPSM Web user Interface and its  *
  *                      tools may write trace records in the    *
  *                      CPSM format, but the IPCS Verb Exit     *
  *                      (EYU9D320) cannot format these records  *
  *                      unless the MAS agent was active at the  *
  *                      time the region was dumped.             *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: After applying the PTF that resolves this    *
  *                 APAR, all MASes must be recycled to pick     *
  *                 up the new code.  Note that the restarts     *
  *                 do not need to be done at the same time.     *
  ****************************************************************
     When an overflow stack block is required, module EYU0VKES
  (VKES - GETMAIN Storage to Extend WUI Stack) is called to get
  and format a block of storage as a stack extension.  VKES also
  writes a USER trace record but the trace identifies VKES as the
  active method and the calling method, making it difficult to
  identify the real requestor.
     The CPSM dump verb exit EYU9D320 issues message EYUDV0106E
  and terminates if a valid Kernel Linkage Work Area (XLWA)
  cannot be located in the dumped region.  However the WUI may
  write trace records in the CPSM format in a region without an
  XLWA.  EYU9D320 should be able to format these trace records.
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

• FIX AVAILABLE BY PTF ONLY
  

Comments

•    Module EYU0VKES was modified to copy the last four characters
  of the calling module name from the caller's stack header into
  the trace record being constructed.
     Copy module EYUBDVKE (CPSM Verb Exit Keyword Table Entry Map)
  was modified to define a new bit flag identifying options which
  do not require a valid XLWA to process.  This flag was set for
  the TRC keyword in module EYU0DVKW (DVKW - Verb Exit Keyword
  Parser).  Module EYU0DVJF (DVJF - Verb Exit Job Format Driver)
  was also modified to process keyword options for which a valid
  XLWA is not required, if an XLWA cannot be found in the dump for
  the current job.
