ABMA
Explanation: The user has supplied a terminal I/O area (TIOA) with an invalid data length that was either equal to zero or greater than the storage accounting length minus 12.
Alternatively, the length field of a header or trailer area provided by the application program is invalid (that is, not positive).
Problem Determination: The output services work area (OSPWA) is in user storage and will be printed in a transaction dump. It is addressed by register 2 at the time of the abend. Relevant fields are:
OSPTR7
OSPHDRA
OSPTRLA
Register 4 or OSPTIOA points to the TIOA. In the TIOA, the following fields are relevant:
TIOATDL
TIOASAL
Analysis:
Register Label Description
R4=@TIOA PBCKTDL TIOATDL is zero or greater
than TIOASAL-12.
R2=@OSPWA PBD20080 R0 (= first halfword of
R0=length trailer) is zero.
of trailer R8=OSPTRLA.
R8=@trailer OSPTR7 has X'20' bit set.
R2=@OSPWA PBDTXHDR R0 (= first halfword of
R8=@header header) is zero.
R0=length R8=OSPHDRA.
of header. OSPTR7 has X'40' bit set.
System Action: The transaction is abnormally terminated with a CICS transaction dump.
User Response: Correct the program that supplied the erroneous data length.
Check the TIOA. If either of the conditions described is present, check the application program. For programs using command-level interface, the TIOA is obtained by CICS using the length of the data item passed in the FROM option on an EXEC CICS SEND MAP or EXEC CICS SEND TEXT command, or in the TRAILER or HEADER option on an EXEC CICS SEND TEXT or an EXEC CICS SEND PAGE command. Check the data item for zero length.
Header and trailer records have a special format described in the CICS Application Programming Reference. An ABMA abend occurs if the first halfword (the length) is not positive. Check the remainder of the header/trailer record for validity when the length is checked.

Folks, this is a technical forum, not a chat room. The purpose of this forum is to allow an individual to post specific technical interview questions, and to allow others to provide appropriate answers for those questions.
Please do not post a reply that is not relevant to the original poster's subject. Instead, please open a new posting in the proper forum.
Thanks,
the Moderator. |
