Issue/Introduction

I am in the process of upgrading our operating system from z/OS 2.2 to z/OS 2.3 and when I start CAS9 for the first time I am receiving a CAT9015I and CAT9010I error message along with an S0C4 DUMP:

Environment

Release : 14.0

Component : CA TLMS Tape Management

Cause

 

TLMS FAILSAFE module still has z/OS 2.2 code inside the usermod. When copied to a z/OS 2.3, the offsets of the modules do not match causing an S0C4.

Resolution

1). Check SYS1.PARMLIB(PROGxx) member. Are there any SYSLIB LPALIB(oldzOS22libs.LPALIB) statements?

2). Check the library in question and see if the following modules are there:

 IFG0KLCM, IFG019RB, IFG055ZZ. Alias of IFG019RB.

3). The modules are used for the TLMS FAILSAFE feature. When the old library was copied from z/OS 2.2 to 2.3 system, you still have IBM 2.2 code in those usemods.

4). Remove the SYSLIB LPALIB(oldzOS22libs.LPALIB) from the SYS1.PARMLIB(PROGxx) and IPL out this library. This will let you start CAS9/CTS without the S0C4.

5). Restore off the TLMS FAILSAFE usermod and re-apply on the z/OS 2.3 using the 2.3 libraries.
