An abnormal end (abend) or program check has occurred in module modname and will have occurred in either the local (DFHLCD) or the global (DFHGCD) catalog domains. This implies that there may be an error in CICS code.
Alternatively,
The code aaa/bbbb is a three digit hexadecimal MVS code (if applicable), followed by a four digit alphanumeric CICS code. The MVS code is a system completion code (for example, 0C1 or D37). If an MVS code is not applicable, this field is filled with three hyphens. The CICS code is an abend code or a number referring to a CICS message (for example, AKEA is a CICS abend code; 1310 refers to message DFHTS1310).
During initialization, CICS may not have access to the user’s applid coded in the SIT. If CICS produces this message in these circumstances, it uses the default applid value DBDCCICS.
An exception entry is made in the trace table, provided that trace is available at this time. A system dump is taken, unless you have specifically suppressed dumps in the dump table.
This is a critical error and CICS is terminated, even if you have specified in the dump table that CICS should not terminate.
Message DFHME0116 is normally produced containing the symptom string for this problem.
Notify the system programmer.
Look up the MVS code, if there is one, in the relevant MVS codes manual which is detailed in the book list in the front of this manual.
Then look up the CICS alphanumeric code in this manual. This will tell you, for example, whether the error was a program check, an abend, a runaway or a recovery percolation, and may give you some guidance concerning user response.

XMEOUT Parameters: applid, aaa/bbbb, X'offset', {1=local, 2=global}, modname
A CICS function is taking more time to process than CICS expects. A possible loop has been detected in module modname at offset X'offset'. This is the offset of the instruction which was executing at the time the error was detected.
During initialization, CICS may not have access to the user’s applid coded in the SIT. If CICS produces this message in these circumstances, it uses the default applid value DBDCCICS.
An exception entry is made in the trace table.
A system dump is taken, unless you have specifically suppressed dumps in the dump table.
This is a critical error and CICS is terminated, even if you have specified in the dump table that CICS should not terminate.

The possible versions of this message include the text
The GENCB failed with the R15 condition given in X'yy'.
The X'zz' code is only meaningful if X'yy' is X'04' when: X'zz' is the error code returned by VSAM Register 0 in response to a GENCB macro.
OPEN has failed with the R15 condition code X'yy'. This was followed by a successful SHOWCB which has placed the OPEN error code into X'zz'. Also see the message that VSAM writes to the operator console and programmer’s listing.

The VSAM error reported in the previous DFHCC0100 message suggests that the global catalog is already being used, possibly by another CICS region. The global catalog data set cannot be shared.
CICS is terminated.
Ensure that the DFHGCD DD statement for this CICS specifies a different global catalog data set from any CICS job that is already running.
If CICS still fails, notify the system programmer. You need further assistance from IBM to resolve this problem. See CICS Problem Determination Guide for guidance on how to proceed.

Secondary space may be specified when the catalog data sets DFHLCD and DFHGCD are defined. This message is issued when the catalog starts using an additional space allocation.
See the CICS System Definition Guide for more information on controlling CICS storage.
An exception entry is made in the trace table, provided that trace is available at this time.
There are two possibilities.
Look for any other symptoms of possible looping, and
act accordingly. If looping has occurred then the system programmer
should redefine the catalog during the next CICS initial start.
If CICS was not looping then
notify the system programmer, who should increase the
primary space allocated for this data set during the next
CICS initial start.

XMEOUT Parameters: applid, {1=local, 2=global}
The specified catalog data set (DFHLCD or DFHGCD) is full. There are two possible reasons for this error:
If the error occurs during initialization, a system dump is produced then CICS is terminated. If the error occurs after initialization, the domain invoking the catalog services will decide what action is appropriate.
Check for any other symptoms of looping and act accordingly.
If CICS is not looping, notify the system programmer who should increase the primary space allocated for this data set during the next CICS initial start.
If CICS is looping, this indicates an error in CICS code. You may need further assistance from IBM to resolve this problem. See CICS Problem Determination Guide for guidance on how to proceed.
