The only time GETMAIN RU can have a non-0 RC is when CheckZeroRC=YES is specified. Thus, there is a *useful* return code for GETMAIN RU only when CheckZeroRC=YES. So GETMAIN RU has a "defined return code" of 0 but, as Binyamin wrote, that is meaningless in this case since for this invocation the R15 is always 0 upon return (as it abends if the obtain fails). SP229 never "spills" into SP230. If the trace shows SP230 then there were obtains from SP230. If the trace does not show SP229 then there were no obtains from SP229 within the timespan represented in the trace. AllowUserKeyCSA has nothing to do with obtains from non-CSA subpools. There are no "issues" with the AllowUserKeyCSA parameter other than with anyone who does allow it who cares about system integrity. Peter Relson z/OS Core Technology Design
