Error description
If there are repeated attempts to acquire an IPIC Connection that fails, there is a storage leak which can result in a DFHSM0133 message. Trace shows that DFHWBCL is doing an OPEN_SESSION. During the processing of the OPEN_SESSION, storage is getmained for WBCMCSBF from the WBGENRAL subpool. If the OPEN_SESSION fails, then the CISC transaction ends without ever freeing the storage it getmained for WBCMCSBF This results in a storage leak and could eventually lead to an SOS should this happened repeatedly.
