Hi, CORRECTION: The relief in CA-INSIGHT is limited to compatibility with CA-GSS changes to eliminate user key. It is required for compatibility with a CA-GSS fix still only available as a USERMOD T5DR008. We have tested this code well with CA-MIM(MIA nee GTAF), INSIGHT, SYSVEIW, OPSMVS and are running it on all systems here at GEICO. The CA-INSIGHT PTFs don't provide any relief for the allocations made by CA-INSIGHT for it's own use.
Thanks, Sam CA-INSIGHT has a published solution that provides relief to eliminate user key (8) CSA allocation. The PTFs are UCIC245 (11.0) and UCID151 (11.5). /********************************************************************** COMPATIBILITY FIX FOR GSS KEY 8 CSA USAGE REMOVAL PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Support GSS removal of KEY 8 CSA control blocks. CA-Insight is changed to locate needed control blocks in the private area of the GSS address space. SYMPTOMS: Following the application of the GSS maintenance, ABENDs or IMOD failures may occur. IMPACT: Loss of functionality (System Condition monitor, IMODs, etc.) CIRCUMVENTION/PROPER HANDLING: Do not upgrade GSS without first applying this maintenance. This maintenance will work with or without the GSS maintenance. PROBLEM RESOLUTION: Code changes are made to locate GSS control block data in the GSS address space rather than in CSA. PRODUCT(S) AFFECTED: Product:IDB2 Release:11.0.0-11.0.4 Genlevels:SP0-SP4 Product:IDB2 Release:11.5.0 Genlevels:SP0 You can get the CA-INSIGHT PTFs from the CA Support Web site http://supportconnect.ca.com/ CA-GSS has a USERMOD available for customer test T5DR008. If you are interested in this I expect they would be interested in other customers to run and confirm this fix especially customers with other products that require CA-GSS like CA-INISGHT or CA-JOBTRAC. You will need to open a ticket with CA-GSS to discuss getting the USERMOD from them at this time.
