Issue/Introduction

The client is upgrading to CA Intertest version 10. The clients site is not licensed for IMS so they removed the IMS RESLIB DD DEF. When the client submits the apply JCL job AVH5APP, the job fails with messages

GIM69102E ** ALLOCATION FAILED FOR SMP00045 BECAUSE THERE IS NO DDDEF ENTRY FOR RESLIB

GIM54601E ** DYNAMIC ALLOCATION FAILED FOR SMP00042 BECAUSE RESLIB IS PART OF THE SMP00042 CONCATENATION BUT WAS NOT ALLOCATED.   

Environment

Z/OS

Cause

Since the client is not licensed for IMS they removed the IMS RESLIB DD DEF from the Target zone which caused the error messages.

ADD DDDEF(RESLIB)       SHR DA(IMS.SDFSRESL). 

Resolution

If a site is not licensed for IMS they need to set the IMS RES library DD DEF to point to the CICS SDFHLOAD as shown in the example below.

ADD DDDEF(SDFHLOAD)     SHR DA(CICSSYS.CTS420.GA.CICS.SDFHLOAD) .

ADD DDDEF(RESLIB)       SHR DA(CICSSYS.CTS420.GA.CICS.SDFHLOAD) .

In this case the client used the ISPF dialogs to add the RESLIB back to the Target zone.
