The relevant manual is z/OS V1R8.0 MVS System Codes - or, ideally, whatever
z/OS level you are using - followed by searching for "System Completion
Code"[1] 878:

Explanation: The error occurred when the system was trying to do one of the
following:

- Satisfy a request made through the STORAGE macro
- Process an RU or VRU form of the GETMAIN macro
- Process an RU form of the FREEMAIN macro

A reason code in the SDWACRC field of the system diagnostic work area (SDWA)
explains the error:

Then look down for "code explanation" 10:

There is not enough virtual private area storage available to satisfy the
request. This is due to one of the following:

- A program is requesting virtual storage, but not subsequently freeing the
storage.
- The region size specified is too small.
- An installation exit is requesting virtual storage from a V=R region
before initialization of the region has completed.

If you now use "LookAt!" -
http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/zseries/zos/bkserv/lookat/ - in order
to look up message IEA705I, you will be able to work out the following:

jobname = QLUSER1S
stepname = DDDE

and - I think - the following for "abend code" 8xx, reason code 4-14:

The current address space control block (ASCB) address = 00F90280
The dispatched task control block (TCB) address = 007C0C48
The input TCB address = 007C0C48 (the same as above)
The subpool identifier requested = 0000
The request flags = 12 meaning
 10 - Virtual storage may be below 16 megabytes
 02 - Request is unconditional
The length of the area requested for GETMAIN, FREEMAIN, or STORAGE =
00D29240 - rather a lot!

I said "I think" because, according to the message text, there ought to be a
"flag byte" before the hexadecimal word fields. Perhaps you managed to drop
it somehow in your "copy and paste".

If the amount of storage requested is not what you might expect, I suggest
you concentrate on that as the cause of your problem.

[1] I know the message explanation says "Abend Code" but it corresponds to
what the "System Codes" manual calls "System Completion Code".
