Padded Monitor record encountered

Explanation

CICS PA found that the record length was longer than the record length that CICS® wrote at the front of the record.

System action

CICS PA runs normally. You should be aware of this problem since it might be due to invalid data. You might also have caused this problem by copying the data from one unit to another with a utility that padded the record. If the record was padded, it will not use space efficiently and might affect the processing time of CICS PA.

User response

Determine why the record was padded and correct the problem.
