Error description

  • During the autoinstall process of a Bridge Facility, an abend
    occurs within the users autoinstall exit program. Message
    DFHBR0202 is issued to report the abend and the autoinstall exit
    program is then disabled.
    The action taken is not consistent with the action taken for
    the same abend during the autoinstall process for a normal 3270
    terminal. For a normal 3270 termianl autoinstall, the user exit
    program is not disabled after experiencing an abend.

    ****************************************************************
    A bridge facility is being autoinstalled and the autoinstall
    user exit program abends.  DFHBRAI issues message DFHBR0202
    and disables the autoinstall user exit program.
    
    If the abend occurred during autoinstall of a normal 3270 or
    a console then the exit program would not be disabled.
    
    The 3270 Bridge autoinstall behaviour should match the normal
    3270 and console process.

Problem conclusion

  • DFHBRAI error processing procedure has been changed to remove
    the call to disable bridge facility autoinstall user exit after
    user exit program abend detected.
    DFHMEBRE has been changed to remove part of the message
    indicating autoinstall function disabled in msgDFHBR0202.
    
    The CICS Transaction Server for z/OS Messages and Codes Version
    4 Release 1 GC34-7035-02 has been altered to remove the part of
    message 'The autoinstall function has been disabled.' in message
    DFHBR0202 and update system action and user response as follows:
    
    DFHBR0202 date time applid userid tranid Bridge
    facility autoinstall URM urmname has
    abended with code abcode.
    
    Explanation: The bridge facility autoinstall URM
    terminated abnormally with abend code abcode.
    
    abcode is either a CICS transaction abend code or a user
    abend code generated by a CICS ABEND
    ABCODE(abcode) command.
    
    System action: Abend AEI0 will be issued unless the transaction
    is calling the bridge exit for termination or abend processing.
    
    User response: Use the abend code abcode to diagnose
    the problem. If the abend is issued by an IBM program
    product other than CICS, the code is described in
    the documentation of that product.
    
    Alternatively, there might be a logic error in the
    autoinstall URM.
