Component Name DFSMS VSAM MEDA Special Notice HIPER Current Target Date ..06/08/02 Flags SCP ................... Platform ............ PERVASIVE DATALOSS Status Detail: DESIGN/CODE - APAR solution is being designed and coded. PE PTF List: PTF List: Tentative Affected Releases and Current Relief Available: Release 1K0 : Relief is available in the form of: AA17292 Parent APAR: Child APAR list: ERROR DESCRIPTION: IMS issues a macro interface to VSAM to invalidate a particular buffer in the LSR buffer pool. If the buffer resides in a hiperspace buffer, it is not invalidated and can lead to lost updates if that address space later uses that downlevel copy of the buffer. The external symptoms can be 'pointer checker' errors, ABENU0852 and ABEND0849. The problem only affects IMS applications using IRLM Notify that have hiperspace buffers in the LSR pool. It does not affect those IMS users of cross invalidate using the coupling facility. IMS is the only user of this function. No other VSAM users are affected. ADDITIONAL SYMPTOMS: ABEND0C4 in IDA019XV msgDFS629I PSW AT ERROR = 077C2000 82D79960 SYS1 msgDFS629I MODID = UNKNOWN EPA = UNKNOWN SYS1 LOCAL FIX: Remove hiperspace buffers from the LSR pool definition. To do this, look in the IMS startup parms under DFSVSAMP DD or the DFSVSMxx member.Remove any HSO,HSR, HSn subparms from VSRBF= control statments.
