The freeware MXI is still supported to a some degree - however I can
only fix the code in my spare time and I do not have much of that at the
moment!

My primary focus is MXI G2 and I am currently writing a CICS plug-in
(the DB2 plug-in goes GA very soon and the MQ plug-in is going into beta
test next month). As soon as I come up for air - I will try and provide
a fix for the SP issue in MXI 4.3. 

The bug in SP only occurs when you drill down to list all of the entries
for a single subpool+key combination - MXI 4.3 has a logic problem when
catering for the multiple GQEs that can describe the storage in one
allocated block reported by VSMLIST. As Sam rightly says, this is a MXI
4.3 issue only - MXI G2 handles this situation correctly.

AFAIK MXI freeware is out of support by Rob. 
If you still believe this is an area I'll try to look at at it and
provide a solution for SHOWzOS.

Hi,

In the past I had recommended using the freeware MXI SP *-8 
command to review persistent allocations of Key 8 common 
storage.  I still do! Get it here 
http://www.rs.com/portfolio/mxi/download.php  You do need to be 
aware that in the currently available MXI free version there is 
a bug and that some key 8 allocations may not be listed.

Rob is aware and this is a bug in MXI 4.3 only - there are 
certain circumstances where MXI 4.3 does not correctly handle 
the VSMLIST return area correctly - MXI G2 handles the 
situation just fine.

I understand he hopes to fix it in the next genlevel of free MXI 4.3.

        Best Regards,
