A virtual beverage of your choice at the most expensive watering hole I
can afford. 

The IPCS script worked like a charm. PMR opened with IBM. 


Many thanks to Bob and Rob for their kind assistance. And to all who
participate in IBM-MAIN.

Hal,

I too use MXI for this, but I start with the CSR command as that shows
only 
orphaned CSA/SQA.  Rob not only does great work but he's a good guy to
boot!

You can, however, use IPCS to look at your running system by specifying
ACTIVE 
in option 0.

Then enter
ip verbx vsmdata 'owncomm detail all sortby(time)'
and scroll down to the bottom of the report.  Grab a coffee at this
point.

Do a "f ' og ' prev" and look for something like

                                                        Date       Time
ASID Job Name Id       St T Address  Length   Ret Addr MM/DD/YYYY
HH:MM:SS

0098 MMSQUITF S0888511 OG S 02A5F128 00000048 0E0D9C80 08/23/2005
11:19:10
  Data ------> E2D4C3D4 E3D6D2D5 00000048 F5000B70  *SMCMTOKN....5...*

The "OG" is "owner gone" and the "S" is SQA.  The "Ret Addr" is the
address 
after the GETMAIN/STORAGE and that's your culprit.  Browse storage
before the 
shown address until you see an eyecatcher and then call the vendor.

(In the sample, it's STK's silo software and it's a known issue we're
getting 
ready to address.)

Bob
