This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Z Software products. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

When a long-running address space opens a VSAM cluster, performs some updates and then closes the VSAM cluster another non-CICS address space may open the same VSAM cluster. However, if this VSAM cluster is defined for replication logging the logging fails with DWW252I with return code 24 and reason code 717053CB and DWW280I with return code 8 and reason code 71725319.
This appears to be due to the first batch job, that remained running, retaining logging rights until job step end. For long-running address spaces this might be hours or days and they may open and close VSAM data sets over that period. Other batch jobs may need to access the VSAM cluster when it is freed, but before the first job step ends.

CICS VR has been enhanced for datasets defined with LOGREPLICATE FRLOG(NONE) to support disconnecting from the logstream at file close time rather than EOJ.
The functionality is provided by apar PI70498 which is now closed and the PTFs for CICS VR 5.1(UI42778) and CICS VR 5.2(UI42779) are closed and available.
