Problem Note 6777: DCOLLECT and other MXG-based collectors fail with SCL dump due to a
%INCLUDE statement
In IT Service Vision Release 2.5, it is possible to get an SCL dump when
processing DCOLLECT or other MXG-based collector data when a %INCLUDE
statement is coded in IMACKEEP; although the MXG-based collectors would
get the same result as long as duplicate checking is enabled. An
example of the SCL dump follows:
Arguments passed to GETITEMC:
1 slist = 45
Program returning prematurely at line 118
AF Program: pgmlib.cpemain.CMC031P.SCL
*** Line 395: ÃERROR: #114± Calling function DISPLAY. Unable to
perform requested function
Some of these cases (where an SCL dump is produced) involve a %INCLUDE
statement coded in the IMACKEEP that references a PDS that is not
allocated, which may have been added for a specific collector. When
a different collector is processed, ITSV still attempts to parse the
%INCLUDE and because of the way ITSV parses the code when enabling
dupmode, it interprets it and tries to load the included code, even
though it may not actually execute it for the collector being processed.
Thus, the SCL dump is generated.
The circumvention to this problem is to allocate the PDS in question,
even if it is to a DUMMY or empty file.
