Resolution

This is normally seen when both, CA 1 and CA Disk are running.  CA-DISK has "hooks" into the operating system which can be put in via MLPA or by using another library ahead of SYS1.LPALIB.  CA 1 reads SYS1.LPALIB unless told to do it differently via the CAG8LIB1 or CAG8LIB2 DD statements in CAS9 and TMSINIT.

The open/close modules from the LPA libs are different to what is loaded in storage, then we get S0C4 abends. 
If CA Disk "hooks" are installed via a library ahead of SYS1.LPALIB you must have the same concatenation as on the SYSLIB from PROGxx on the CAG8LIB1 DD for CAS9 and TMSINIT.  If CA Disk "hooks" are installed via MLPA then you must have the library used in the CAS8LIB2 DD for CAS9 and TMSINIT.

 

For the installation of the intercepts, we need to know the offsets of CSECTS within a load module as well as the offset of VCONs. This information needs to be obtained from the modules in the LPA libraries, as it is no longer available after the modules have been loaded to active LPA. We obtain the information from the LPA libs on DASD and then we install our intercepts based on this information.

 

For this reason it is necessary, you must  ensure that the CAG8LIB1 or CAG8LIB2 DD statements are pointing to the correct libraries.
