I'm looking at the latest CICS APM about STARTBR. Unfortunately, it
doesn't say anything in particular. But there is a response code of
INVREQ with a subcode of 33 which states:
<quote>
An attempt is made to start a browse with a REQID already in
use for another browse.
</quote>
It also states that if a REQID is not specified, then a value of 0 is
used.
<quote>
REQID(data-value),
specifies as a halfword binary value a unique request identifier for
a
browse, used to control multiple browse operations on the same or
different data sets. If this option is not specified, a default
value
of zero is assumed.
</quote>
So, without testing, I would say that a second STARTBR without a unique
REQID would cause the INVREQ/33 return to the program.
I'd take this question to the CICS list.
