Anthony 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:
<quote> 2.504 878 878 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: </quote> Then look down for "code explanation" 10: <quote> 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. </quote> 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. Chris Mason [1] I know the message explanation says "Abend Code" but it corresponds to what the "System Codes" manual calls "System Completion Code". ----- Original Message ----- From: "Anthony Bongiorno" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Newsgroups: bit.listserv.ibm-main To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, 08 October, 2006 9:58 PM Subject: help with 878-10 > can some help me with 878-10 . > i am geting : > -QLUSER1S LOG5 00 37 24 .00 .0 > IEA705I ERROR DURING GETMAIN SYS CODE = 878-10 QLUSER1S DDDE > IEA705I 00F90280 007C0C48 007C0C48 00001200 00D29240 > IEA995I SYMPTOM DUMP OUTPUT 707 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
