Error description

• Customer is receiving the following message,
  DFHSM0002 A severe error (code X'0C05') has
  occurred in module DFHSMMG
  The trace shows the following exception,
  SM 0C05 SMMG  *EXC* - Invalid_storage_class
  - FUNCTION(GETMAIN)
  GET_LENGTH(xxxx) SUSPEND(YES)
  INITIAL_IMAGE(00)
  The stacks shows the following:

  DFHXMTA

  SEVERE_ERROR
  DFHMEME
  SEND
  CONTINUE_SEND
  TAKE_A_DUMP_FOR_CALLER

  It appears that we are in DFHSMMG HCI660 at offset 2BE where
  we are checking Subpool value. SP_VALUE/r13+x'119'contains
  an invalid value causes this invalid_storage_class.
  The problem is due to your application executing an invalid
  command(i.e. EXEC CICS ISSUE SEND) while running under a
  non-terminal task.This APAR would simply detect such an
  invalid state and return an error back to your application,
  and you will have to correct your application.

  A non-terminal task issues EXEC CICS ISSUE SEND. This command is
  designed to be used by terminal transactions and a TCTTE is
  expected to be addressed by EISTCTTE.
  DFHEDI calls DFHEIP routine EICCSC30 to getmain a TIOA. As
  EISTCTTE is nulls, DFHEIP bypasses code which sets the
  storage class for the getmain to TERMINAL.
  This results in DFHSM0002 SEVERE ERROR (CODE X'0C05') when the
  getmain is issued. A getmain for TIOA storage can never succeed
  when the current task is non-terminal.
  The test of a non-terminal task should have been made by DFHEDI
  before it called DFHEIP.
  

Problem conclusion

• DFHEDI has been changed so that when command EXEC CICS ISSUE
  SEND is made by a non-terminal task, an ABEND ADIS will be
  issued.
