Error description
Getting a MBRN abend as a result of the ErrorOffset value in the CIH having a value of x'103A0'. According to the Bridge Work Element at the time of the abend, the value in the vector's input message buffer is x'10400'(decimal 66560). The test when compared max_commarea size of 32763 fails. That's when we get the invalid bridge vector. The data shows that the successful message contains a CIH header followed by a BRMQ receive map vector with vector data. This occurs after pressing a PF8 key Additional Keywords: MBRN , VECTOR , CIH ,ErrorOffset

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: An application, using the CICS/MQ * * Link3270 Bridge, passes a receive map * * vector containing only a PF8 AID key * * value and no data, but is processed by * * the Link3270 Bridge as if it DID * * contain data and this results in an * * MBRN abend. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The CICS/MQ Link3270 Bridge code does not allow for the processing of receive map vectors which contain only AID key values and no data. As a consequence applications may abend MBRN with accompanying message "DFHMQ0781E Invalid Bridge Vector". ADDITIONAL KEYWORDS :- DFHMQ0781E msgDFHMQ0781E DFHMQ0781 msgDFHMQ0781 abendMBRN
Problem conclusion
DFHMQBP0 is altered so that the logic which processes ADS fields is only executed for receive map vectors which actually contain an ADS.
