Such a suggestion. VTAM exits can also run under SRB. How about make sure that is not the case.

Thompson, Steve wrote: So the question that I have is, under what conditions can PSATOLD be zero? From days gone by, this would seem to be some kind of ispatching bug if this is not set prior to dispatching a program that is PRB ased. Our code uses PSATOLD=0 as a way to check whether we're in SRB mode. SNIP> We have NO SRB code in this case. NONE, NADA, ZILCH. But the code path taken is only done with PSATOLD = zero. There are two of us here who say this is impossible (I'm one). But here e are, and we have seen this at 1.7, 1.9, and 1.10 (that I know about). nd it is only here and there. So there must be some other way for PSATOLD to be zero. And that's all 'm asking: SRB does it, what else does it? Do IRBs? Because we do use RBs from time to time (we do use VTAM).
