We recently rolled out RSU0512 maintenance which included a fix to allow the LE support for Enterprise Cobol for z/OS V3R4 NF PTF to get applied (which itself was PEd).
It turns out there is a new PE related to this support (it went PE on 01/19/2006 - 2 days before our rollout). A short description of PK15432 is: "a change in behavior of COBOL programs that include SEARCH ALL ... WHEN statements if the search argument is longer than the key" No fix is available yet, so the PTFs (including support for Enterprise Cobol for z/OS V3R4) must be backed out or code changes are required. See the APAR text for details. We were alerted from our applications area when they found "bad data". We are trying to assess the impact now and this could be a long clean up effort. Hopefully this post will save someone else. -- Mark Zelden Sr. Software and Systems Architect - z/OS Team Lead Zurich North America and Farmers Insurance Group mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Systems Programming expert at http://expertanswercenter.techtarget.com/ Mark's MVS Utilities: http://home.flash.net/~mzelden/mvsutil.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
