The trick was to get around a problem caused by someone compressing a proclib while it was open to the converter subtask(s). This trick may or may not work unless you can flood your system(s) with enough jobs to force all converter subtasks to close/reopen the DCB. The default number of converter subtasks is 2, but many shops run with much higher values (see PCEDEF CNVTNUM). We used to have this problem all the time with our production proclibs getting compressed until we converted from PDS to PDSE. Dynamic proclibs (available in z/OS 1.2 and above) eliminate the problem altogether. At any rate, "the trick" won't help with the original poster's problem. $PJES2,ABEND and restart is the only way AFAIK without dynamic proclib support.
