The APAR is in OPEN status: PH42336: ABEND S800 D AFTER APPLYING PTFS FOR PH20594 21/11/24 PTF PECHANGE This is related to the earlier thread "How to get APAR number", where I pointed out that you need to sign in to see OPEN APARs. I started at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://esupport.ibm.com/customercare/psearch/search?domain=gapar__;!!HnnddUIWDII9UQ!Aaz2T9lecKz0WRpNCB5cq6NprlZjloaf-1L1l-Z59AwS8jyWDbTe_Uc3pZbduhnntDk$ , searched for PH42336, that showed me a list of one APAR with the little key icon, I clicked on it, it prompted me for an IBM ID, and after a lot of flickering and screen refreshing I got to the APAR text. There is no fix, but there is a workaround: BYPASS/CIRCUMVENTION: The following option will disable use of zHPF for sortwork at the job level: //DFSPARM DD * DEBUG $ZEXCP$=OFF I don't see any "IBM confidential" or the like in the text, but I'm hesitant to post the whole thing here. I should point out that my IBM ID is of the most basic kind that anyone can apply for. It is not connected to any kind of entitled support that I know of.
