| Description
|
System abend Fxx. SVC xx not found.
|
| Background
|
Abend Fxx means that SVC number xx (in hex) is not found. Convert
xx to decimal to get the decimal SVC number in question.
That SVC is not installed correctly.
IOF requires either an ESR or an SVC in order to gain required
authorization. The customer selects the ESR or SVC in member
A10AUTH of the IOF OPTIONS library. Instructions
for installing the ESR or SVC are provided in the comments in
A10AUTH, and in Section 2 of the
IOF Installation Guide which can be
downloaded from this web page.
When IOF abends with code Fxx, it usually means that the IOF SVC
was not installed correctly.
|
| Solution
|
The SVC specified in option A10AUTH is not properly installed.
"AUTH SVC=nnn" was specified in the A10AUTH option.
Check to insure that the SVCPARM statement in the IEASVCxx
member of 'SYS1.PARMLIB' is properly specified as described
in Section 2 of the IOF Installation Guide which
can be downloaded from this web page.
Check to insure that the IGC00XXX member of the IOF LOAD library
is properly renamed and copied to the system LPA library as
described in Section 2 of the IOF Installation Guide.
|
Additional
check
|
Check to insure that another module with the same SVC name does
not exist in LPA, perhaps in an earlier LPA concatenation.
|
| Note
|
A system IPL is required in order for a member of an LPA library
to be accessable by the system unless this site has one of the
products that dynamically update LPA libraries.
|
| Note
|
When the primary solutions to a problem do not change the symptoms,
perhaps the wrong IOF load module(s) are being executed. The IOF and
IOFSPF modules will load from a STEPLIB or ISPLLIB. The IOF/CICS
IOFCIC load module (invoked by transaction code IOF) runs from a
library in the CICS DFHRPL concatenation. The other four IOF load
modules must be resident in a system LINKLIST or LPA library. See
the January/February 1999 Newsletter for
a better discussion of IOF load modules.
IOF/TSO provides the IOFWHERE Rexx exec in the IOF CLIST
library to assist in determining the specific load modules and
libraries being used. To use IOFWHERE, make sure that the IOF CLIST
library is concatenated to the SYSPROC file for the TSO session.
From ISPF Option 6, or from TSO READY, enter:
IOFWHERE
The library names and module names for all the IOF load modules
will be listed to the terminal. Be sure that the libraries listed
are the correct ones.
|
| Note
|
The SVC and ESR supplied with IOF is identical for releases
IOF 7D through 8A. The same SVC or ESR can be shared by IOF/TSO
and IOF/CICS. There is no reason to change the IOF SVC or ESR
when upgrading to a newer IOF release.
