  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: On the WUI "Active target regions"      *
  *                      panel the same MAS can show as both     *
  *                      connected and not connected for         *

  *                      As the connected status comes from a    *
  *                      single control block this should not be *

  ****************************************************************
  The customer displays the "Active target regions" panel for his
  whole CICSPLEX.
  The programs that build CICSPlex SM Resource Tables WLMAWAOR,
  WLMATARG, WLMAWTOR and WLMAROUT can pick up data from an earlier
  entry when the buffer area is re-used. If that entry was
  correctly marked as LOSTCON, then the subsequent entry will also
  be marked LOSTCON, which may be incorrect.
  
  A similar problem may also affect the 'Active workload target
  distribution factors', 'Active workload routing regions' and
  'Complete active routing region details' views."
  

Problem conclusion

• Programs for the "Active Workload" type resource tables,
  EYU0WABA, EYU0WABB, EYU0WABT, and EYU0WABU, have been
  corrected to clear each record before filling it in.
  This corrects the output for these workload tables across the
  CICSPlex SM API, WUI, and CICS Explorer.
