A complete > 64-bit RSM implementation will eventually do away with that craziness. z/OS 1.8 RSM runs mainly in 64-bit addressing mode, so that should reduce the mode switching. Mode and Branch trace enabling may get separated in the next release after z/OS 1.8. Jim Mulder z/OS System Test IBM Corp.
