SAP Note 390080 - DB2/390: Short dump in DB13/DB02 due to too high par.values

Component : DB2 for z/OS -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/390080 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
When attempting to execute backup jobs in SAP, users may encounter a termination issue with CALL_FUNCTION_PARM_MISSING, particularly during DB02 updates where a 'BCD_FIELD_OVERFLOW' error surfaces due to 'DB2TSSIZE-EXTENTS' exceeding 999 in RSDB2T2M. This stems from a program flaw after modifying DB02 EXTENT sizes beyond the planned three digits. Solution involves ensuring proper importation of specified transports from Note 101217 relevant to the R/3 Release, followed by importing appropriate transports as detailed in Note 13719 for respective releases such as 4.6C, 4.6B, and 4.0B, ensuring adherence to specific transports (single, collective) accordingly.
