Register 9 contains the size of the request (x'7FFF4000'), which is too large to be statisfied, regardless of your region size. That is likely due to a programming error in IPCS-related code, or something anomalous in the dump. A dump of the 878 abend would be needed for further diagnosis. I don't normally use the IPCS 2.x panels (I issue the IPCS command I want directly). I tried 2.2, and it looks like it is doing ANALYZE STATUS SYSTEM STATUS FAILDATA STATUS CPU REGS You could try those one at a time to see which one fails. Most likely it is ANALYZE - that entails some complex processing which is dependent on a lot of dump data. Jim Mulder z/OS System Test IBM Corp. Poughkeepsie, NY
