Resolution

Two new Gen Runtime DLLs were introduced in Gen 8.6 - TIRCINTG and TIRCSSTR. These DLLs must be deployed to CICS and IMS targets and/or made available to TSO and Batch applications.

For CICS, the JCL in the new CEHBSAMP(NDEFCICS) member can be used to create the RDO definitions for the 2 DLLs only.  The JCL library member CEHBSKLO(DEFCICS) has been updated to add the 2 new DLLs to the existing definitions.
