November 11, 2002 This APAR applies to TSM MVS or z/OS servers at the 5.1.5.0, 5.1.5.1 or 5.1.5.2 levels of service. The ZAP included in this APAR results in a substantial reduction in Virtual Storage Manager activity related to the TSM Server. IBM Tivoli Storage Manager development recommends applying the ZAP and restarting the TSM Server. APAR= PQ68076 PERFORMANCE DEGRADATION AFTER UPGRADE TO 5.1.5.0, 5.1.5.1 OR 5.1.5.2 (OS/390-Z/OS ONLY) ERROR DESCRIPTION: After upgrading to 5.1.5 PTF level or patches 5.1.5.1 and 5.1.5.2 you may experience additional CPU cycles spent in the nucleus (IGVFPVT, IGVFSDQE) which will cause a degradation of the server performance. This only affects the OS/390 and z/OS platforms. LOCAL FIX: Apply the following zap to correct this condition. //ZAP EXEC PGM=AMASPZAP //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=TSM515X.LINKLIB << update here //SYSIN DD * NAME ANRSERV ANRALLOC VER 00CC 9101,6234 VER 0190 5870,6438 VER 0230 58A0,648C VER 0238 50A0,648C VER 0380 9101,6234 REP 00CC 9101,6334 REP 0190 5870,6538 REP 0230 58A0,658C REP 0238 50A0,658C REP 0380 9101,6334 * NAME ANRSERV ANRFREE VER 03C6 5E40,C438 VER 03D6 D503,C48C,C488 VER 0406 58A0,C48C VER 040E 50A0,C48C REP 03C6 5E40,C538 REP 03D6 D503,C58C,C588 REP 0406 58A0,C58C REP 040E 50A0,C58C /*
