Hi,

APAR PK71583 is now closed with a PTF and we have tested this with good results 
in a number of IMS subsystems running Version 10.

IMS Version 10 even with this APAR and without running Fast Path is using more 
common storage than Version 9 for each IMS subsystems.

-56K CSA used when compared to baseline V9 
+487K ECSA used when compared to baseline V9 
+431K ECSA net increase still with fixtest PK71583 compared to +965K ECSA net 
increase without the fixtest for PK71583 this considers the storage that moved 
from below to above

The VSCR impact of IMS Version 10 was a negative which was unexpected. 
It eroded some of the common storage savings we made recently with z/OS 1.9. 

        Best Regards,

  ERROR DESCRIPTION:
  With IMS releases prior to IMS V10, when Fast Path support was
  not included in the SYSGEN, DBFSCD0x would not be included in
  module DFSBLK0x.  In this case, Fast Path fields in the IMS SCD,
  such as SCDESCDQ, would contain zero for a non-Fast Path system
  and DFSPLPP0 (CTL, MODULE PRELOAD, PROCLIB PROCESSOR) would not
  load Fast Path modules from DBFIIN30.
  .
  Starting with IMS V10, DBFSCD0X is always included in module
  DFSBLK0X.  Even with the parameter specification of FP=N and
  a COLD Start of IMS, SCD field SCDESCDQ will not contain zero
  so DFSPLPP0 will process the module load list contained in
  DBFIIN30.  This will load Fast Path modules for a system which
  does not use Fast Path.
