Issue/Introduction
The CA IDMS CV hangs or goes into a loop.
The dump shows a SIGNON task is active and looping in module RHDCSCEN.
Environment
Release : 19.0
Component : CA IDMS/DB
Cause
PTF SO05694 has been applied. It replaces several modules including RHDCSSFM.
RHDCSSFM is loaded into the ECSA at IPL time when the CAS9 procedure (CAIRIM) runs to install the IDMS SVC.
If no IPL is performed when the PTF is implemented, then the RHDCSSFM module must be refreshed by running CAIRIM otherwise the PTF is only partially applied. This is mentioned in the HOLDDATA for the PTF. This is the case for any PTF that replaces RHDCSSFM and other modules, RHDCSSFM needs to be refreshed.
Resolution
Refresh module RHDCSSFM in the ECSA by running CAIRIM with this input:
PRODUCT(CA IDMS) VERSION(GJJ0) INIT(GJJ0INIT) PARM(REFRESH(RHDCSSFM))
All IDMS CVS must be inactive before running the refresh.
Sample JCL:
//REFRESH EXEC PGM=CAIRIM,REGION=0M
//STEPLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=hlq.ccs.CAW0LOAD
// DD DISP=SHR,DSN=hlq.idms.APFLIB
//KEYS DD DUMMY
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//PARMLIB DD *
PRODUCT(CA IDMS) VERSION(GJJ0) INIT(GJJ0INIT) PARM(REFRESH(RHDCSSFM))
/*
Also ensure that after applying the PTF, the CAS9 procedure points to the APFLIB library that contains the new RHDCSSFM module.
