    ****************************************************************
    ABENDS0C4 in occurs in Websphere Application Server for z/OS
    SRB when it attempts to reference a WLM area that has already
    been freed by WLM's resource manager. WLM's resource manager
    has run because the address space is coming down.
    The SRB was processing a local communications clean up request
    when it abended.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Changed the recovery routine covering the SRB to not dump when
    an abend occurs in a SRB that is running in an address space
    that is coming down.
    
    APAR PM37976 is currently targeted for inclusion in Service
    Level (Fix Pack) 6.1.0.41 of WebSphere Application Server V6.1.0
    and Fix Pack 8.0.0.2 of WebSphere Application Server V8.0.
    
    The fix will also be delivered as sysrouted APAR PM38766 in
    WebSphere Application Server V7.0 for z/OS.
