It wasn't 10 years ago, it was more like 15 or 20, I remember doing a
system upgrade almost 20 years ago now, pre-xa anyway when we got
clobbered with a new set of abends that all turned out to be programs
not closing the dcb's before ending.  I am sure the "restriction" has
been loosened since then...

If my old addled brain is thinking correctly, I believe over 10 years
ago
IBM decided to no longer be nice to programs and require that all
programs
close any files they open.  And if they did not close them, the system
would
then issue a SC03 abend.

Or am I getting too forgetful???
