ERROR DESCRIPTION:
VM TCPIP abends because of an out of storage condition. Looking
at the DUMP, storage is full with same control block and data:
00000000 009A2F98 00000000 FFFFFF68 *.......q........*

LOCAL FIX:
PROBLEM SUMMARY:
****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: Users of QDIO devices, including *
* Hipersockets and Gigabit Ethernet networks *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: VM TCP/IP storage use increases until *
* eventually it runs out of storage, *
* usually with message VIRTUAL STORAGE *
* CAPACITY EXCEEDED. *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION: APPLY PTF *
****************************************************************
As of TCP/IP 430, the Block Request control block is preserved
rather than being released and reacquired. In one instance, an
existing Block Request pointer was overlaid by another, losing
the associated storage. Eventually, the amount of lost storage
caused the failure.
PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
Code has been changed to preserve the original block so that no
storage is lost.
