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.
