Condition

Runaway task. CICS detected a task running longer than its allowed CPU time, most often because of a logical loop in the program, though it can also indicate the region itself is overloaded.

Fix

Check for a loop condition that is not terminating as expected, particularly around a browse or a condition-handling path that doesn't advance on every iteration. If loops are ruled out, check whether the CICS region is simply under more load than the runaway (ICVR) threshold allows for.

Pending source verification. Not yet checked against official documentation.
