  ****************************************************************
  Module DFHRSSR is called in a CMAS or MAS to perform processing
  related to CPSM WLM.  The caller may be CICS or CPSM.  If a
  abend occurs within DFHRSSR, message DFHRS0001 is issued and
  CICS will take a dump.  While this processing is sufficient if
  CICS is the caller, it is not sufficient if CPSM is the caller,
  as the dump will not contain the CPSM dataspaces.
  
  DFHRSSR abend recovery processing will be changed to call CPSM
  services to provide CPSM abend diagnostic messages (EYUXL09xx)
  and a CPSM dump if the caller of DFHRSSR is CPSM.  If the caller
  of DFHRSSR is not CPSM, then message DFHRS0001 and a CICS dump
  will continue to be provided.
  

Problem conclusion

• DFHRSSR abend recovery has been updated to call new module
  EYU9XLRS. EYU9XLRS will determine if the caller was CPSM, and if
  so, will retrieve the abend information from the  CICS Kernel
  error block, and call module EYU9XLRV.  EYU9XLRV will call
  module EYU9XLRW to produce the CPSM abend diagnostic messages
  and then will request a CPSM dump.  The title of the dump will
  be similar to the following:
  
    EYU9XLRV Dump,<jobname>,<cpsmname>,<lpar>,<CMAS|LMAS>,
    <tranid>,<tasknum>,<abendcode>,DFHRSSR,<date>,<time>
  
  EYU9XLRV will then return to EYU9XLRS, which will return to
  DFHRSSR recovery processing, which will bypass the DFHRS0001
  message and the CICS dump.
