Issue/Introduction

 

Transactions with CICS are getting  abend X005  and  rolling out  after applying  PTF SO08256  /  SO08257 which is dependent on session

display size(Dynamic display size 3270 ).

 

Environment

 

Release : 19.0

Component : CA IDMS

Cause

 

 

 

The #UCFUTD default page and line length is 24 and 80, that of a Mod2.

If the emulator's alternate screen size is other than a supported 3270 model (dynamic), the emulator's default screen size cannot be a Mod 5.

Resolution

The DFLTSIZ specification only applies if the alternate size is not a supported 3270 model. To support a Mod4 as the alternate, it may be necessary to use a TYPETERM designation in CICS
It is recommended  not to specify DFLTSIZ for either #UCFCICS or #UCFUTD .

Here's an example of a front-end table that defines a complement of 3270 models.

UCFFET #UCFUFT SYSTEM=CICS,NTID=CV08,PTID=UCFP
#UCFUTD TYPE=TTY,NCHARS=80,NLINES=2

#UCFUTD TYPE=T3277,NCHARS=80,NLINES=24,MODEL=2  
#UCFUTD TYPE=T3279,NCHARS=80,NLINES=24,MODEL=2  
#UCFUTD TYPE=T3277,NCHARS=80,NLINES=32,MODEL=3  
#UCFUTD TYPE=T3279,NCHARS=80,NLINES=32,MODEL=3  
#UCFUTD TYPE=T3277,NCHARS=80,NLINES=43,MODEL=4  
#UCFUTD TYPE=T3279,NCHARS=80,NLINES=43,MODEL=4  
#UCFUTD TYPE=T3277,NCHARS=132,NLINES=27,MODEL=5 
#UCFUTD TYPE=T3279,NCHARS=132,NLINES=27,MODEL=5
