Issue/Introduction

Installed Z/OS V2R4 on our first testbed and start of PDSMAN generated svc dump:


DUMPID=002 REQUESTED BY JOB (PDSMAN  )                            

DUMP TITLE=COMPID=DF115,CSECT=IGWIRPAD+1CCA,DATE=03/17/19,MAINT   

           ID=NONE NON,ABND=0F4,RC=00000024,RSN=1419A084          

 

Pdsman continues its installation and seems ok.

 

 

Environment

Release : 7.7

Component : CA-PDSMAN for z/OS

Resolution

This is an exact match on an IBM APAR - OA46376.

At the time of this abend PDSMOPR (the stc control module) is invoking PDSM00, which sets the PDSMAN SVC hooks, among other things. The unusual thing about this is PDSM00 ran normally - evidenced by the PDSM00-1   PDSMAN BLDL/STOW INTERFACE INITIALIZATION COMPLETE message. And actually PDSMAN completed initialization normally.

So at the time of the abend, PDSMAN was not active in the system (the abend occurred before PDSM00 ran).

We now recommend REGION=0M be used for the PDSMAN STC.

We recommend you report this to IBM.
