Error description
When an EXEC CICS LINK PROGRAM is used by an application program on a CICS TS 4.1 region to perform a DPL request to another CICS region and communication between the two regions is using an IPCONN, an incorrect RESP2 value can be returned. If the EXEC CICS LINK PROGRAM command produces a SYSIDERR condition because the request to allocate a session to the remote system was rejected, the value returned in RESP is incorrect.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS Users. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: EXEC CICS LINK PROGRAM returns an * * incorrect RESP2 value when there * * are no free sessions using an IPCONN. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** An EXEC CICS LINK PROGRAM is executed to perform a DPL request. This involves a request to allocate a session with an IPCONN to the target CICS region. The IPCONN has attribute MAXQTIME(NO) and at the time of the request to allocate a session with the IPCONN there are no free sessions. The EXEC CICS LINK PROGRAM command fails with a SYSIDERR condition but with an incorrect RESP2 value of 32 instead of 31.

Problem conclusion
DFHEPC has been changed to set RESP2 to 31 if a DFHISIS FUNCTION(CONVERSE) call fails with an exception response and a reason of either QUEUE_LIMIT_REACHED or QUEUE_PURGED.
