DFHICxxxx messages

DFHIC0002
applid A severe error (code X'code') has occurred in module modname.
Explanation:

An error has been detected in module modname. The code X'code' is the exception trace point ID which uniquely identifies what the error is and where it was detected.

System action:

An exception entry (code X'code' in the message) is made in the trace table. A system dump is taken, unless you have specifically suppressed dumps in the dump table.

CICS continues unless you have specified in the dump table that CICS should terminate.

Message DFHME0116 is normally produced containing the symptom string for this problem.

User response:

This indicates a possible error in CICS code. The severity of its impact depends on the importance of the function being executed at the time of the error.

CICS may not have been terminated.

If the message occurs once and module modname is not crucial to the running of your CICS system, you may decide to continue to run and bring CICS down at a convenient time to resolve the problem.

If the message recurs or if you cannot run without the full use of module modname, you will need assistance. Bring CICS down in a controlled shutdown and collect the dumps and any relevant messages sent by the module identified in the message. See CICS® Problem Determination Guide for guidance on how to proceed.

DFHIC0200
date time applid Automatic transaction restart for transaction tranid has failed.
Explanation:

A STARTed nonterminal transaction is ending abnormally and automatic transaction restart was requested via the user replaceable module DFHREST. A severe error occurred when CICS attempted to restart the transaction.

System action:

Message DFHAP0002 with a dump is issued for the severe error that caused the restart to fail. Abnormal termination of the transaction for which restart was requested continues. The transaction is not automatically restarted.

User response:

Investigate the reason for the earlier severe error. See message DFHAP0002 for further guidance. Restart the transaction manually if necessary.

DFHIC0310
date time applid Unable to attach transaction - tranid to terminal - termid
Explanation:

An attempt was made to start transaction tranid on terminal termid as a result of:

The attempt was rejected. The most likely cause is that, at the time the attempt was made, the terminal was unknown in the system.

Start of changeThis message is also issued when:

End of change
System action:

The request is deleted from the system.

User response:

Ensure that a valid terminal name is being specified. If the name is valid, examine the trace (if one is available) to determine why the attempt was rejected.

XMEOUT Parameters: date, time,applid, tranid, termid

DFHIC0360
date time applid An attempt to establish security for userid userid has failed. Transaction tranid cannot be started without a terminal. SAF codes are (X'safresp',X'safreas'). ESM codes are (X'esmresp',X'esmreas').
Explanation:

An attempt was made to establish security for userid userid but it was rejected by the external security manager (ESM).

A time ordered request, such as an EXEC CICS START command, required security to be established for the userid in order to start the transaction tranid without a terminal.

System action:

Security has not been established for the userid. The attempt to start the transaction has failed.

User response:

The response and reason codes (safresp and safreas) returned by the system authorization facility (SAF), and the response and reason codes (esmresp and esmreas) returned by the external security manager (ESM) are those issued by the RACROUTE REQUEST=VERIFY or RACROUTE REQUEST=EXTRACT macros. These return codes are described in the Start of changeOS/390 MVS Programming: Authorized Assembler Services GuideEnd of changeStart of change,End of change and in External Security Interface (RACROUTE) Macro Reference for MVS and VM (SC28-1366). See these manuals for an explanation of the codes.

There may be further messages produced by CICS or the external security manager (ESM) which provide more information.

DFHIC0801
applid CICS time altered from hh.mm.sss to hh.mm.sss - date dddddddd - relative day rrr
Explanation:

This console message is printed when the operating system-maintained time of day has been rolled back (for example, when the operating system clock is reset to zero at midnight). Where:

System action:

CICS has recognized the condition and adjusted its own time of day to agree with that of the operating system.

None

XMEOUT Parameters: applid, hh.mm.sss, hh.mm.sss, dddddddd, rrr

DFHIC0802
applid S/370 clock inoperative ... external action required
Explanation:

CICS execution is dependent on the continued operation of the processor time-of-day clock. This warning message is sent to the console operator during the execution of the time adjustment program if the system detects a processor clock failure at that time. Immediate corrective action (if possible) must be taken by the console operator, if the clock has been disabled for any reason.

System action:

CICS abnormally terminates itself after the condition is detected.

User response:

The ability to enable or disable the time-of-day clock is under the control of the console operator. If the clock is disabled, it must be enabled immediately.
