Running IVP for CICS high Perfromance stub

Hi , I am trying to get the CICS High-Performance Stub Routine for Adabas 8 to work . When I run transaction STB2 for program COBSIVP . It first uses a LINK to ADABAS then uses the high performance stup i.e direct dynamic call. The LINK to ADABAS fails with

ADABAS COMMAND: S1 NON-ZERO RESPONSE: 34 TRANSACTION TERMINATIN

From the ADABAS books

Origin Mainframe systems only
Explanation An invalid command option has been detected.
Depending on the subcode in the rightmost two bytes of the ACB’s Additions 2 field or the ACBX’s Error Subcode (ACBXERRC) field, one of the following has occurred:
Subcode Meaning
1 An invalid command option has been specified in one of the command option fields.
2 The R option has been specified for the C5 command, but replication is not active.
9 A record buffer must be specified for this command but is missing (not specified of length zero).

Action Either remove the invalid command option or replace it with a valid option.


I have added a few diagnostics to the program to display stuff. The link to ADABAS passes an eye-catcher of ADABAS52

The link to ADABAS passes an eye-catcher of ADABAS52 which I presume to be the old ADACB format. - pre V8

I also compiled COBACI8 which only uses the LINK to ADABAS in the new format ADACBX V8 – and passes in ADABAS8X. This works.

Any suggestions. Thanks

Just tried the assembler version ALCSIVP works OK - going to commpare input parameters…

OK in the COBOL one I commented out

  • MOVE ‘N’ TO ADACB-COP2.

now works OK.
