TF24458

[ca.portal.admin]

Hi,



This 16.0 'needed' test fix has not been upgraded to a full blown QO
apar yet. We have had it on Production since May this year. Does anybody
know why that is or has or just been forgotten? Is there a 16.2 version?



Thanks

Re: TF24458
"Thanks for the update Stan. It would be interesting to know what was
changed because it appeared to work well for us after they made an
earlier change from a first attempt. Now we may have to test this again.

Re: Linked-to dialogs in Perfmon reports
"Kay and others who may be experiencing retrieval locking programs,
I've attached the COBOL source for a program I wrote to read the dictionary to get information about dialogs. It extracts the information and puts it in a sequential file which you can sort and FTP to an excel spreadsheet, for analysis. The file includes the following elements:
Dialog Name, Map Name, User ID and Date of last update, an indicator which tells whether the dialog is retrieval only or performs updates, the retrieval lock indicator, the dialog module containing the source code, an indicator which tells whether the dialog is performing a LINK or INVOKE, the Program or Dialog name the dialog is linking or invoking and an indicator to distinguish a called program from a dialog. This indicator will be a 'D' if the called entity is a dialog, otherwise it will be blank.
Once you have this list, you can start removing all of the retrieval locks on dialogs, which are retrieval only, and don't link to or invoke any update dialogs. After this, you can trace the application thread for those dialogs being linked to and see if they are also performing updates. If there are still retrieval locking problems occurring, then that's when you will have to look at making coding changes, which I outlined to Tim earlier. Anyway, if you get to that point, let me know and I will be happy to walk you through it.
Good Luck.

IDMS Tools and COBOL OSVS
"In looking at our IDMS 15.0 SP6 tools loadlib, it is learned many CA delivered load modules have COBOL OSVS linked in.

Given, COBOL OSVS runtime support is slowly being eliminated by IBM, this would appear to be a potential problem. Anyone already address this item?

Example of USJEXT0.

Re: IDMS Tools and COBOL OSVS
"Gooooooooooooooood question Rob.

[ca.portal.admin]

We have upgraded 3 of our 6 production CV's from R14.1 to R16.1 and were
having
some isolated currency (0306) problems. We applied TF24458 which did
not help.
CA had us apply a completely reworked version of TF24458 which solved
our currency (0306) problems. I believe CA is still working on the QO
apar for TF24458.
