Question & Answer
Question
Why would would a transaction dump within CICS Transaction Server for z/OS (CICS TS) V5.1 hang for about 7 minutes and then time out when using Abend-AID for CICS?
Answer
One possibility is that the Abend-AID for CICS processing of the dump hangs until Abend-AID for CICS times it out. When that happens, here is an example of the messages you would see on the Abend-Aid/CICS log:
18JUN2014 19:08:11.68 CTCTC4910I Task# 12,345, Tran Code TRNA, Abend Code
DHGP for program DFHEDP.

There is a problem within Abend-Aid for CICS that is fixed by CFB177. After this fix is applied the Abend-AID transaction dumps should no longer hang and then time out. Contact Compuware if you need further assistance.
