JES2 is dealing with it on its own by re-opening the library after the I/O error. If you compress at that point, you will run into a problem again (which JES2 will again deal with). > If it's a pdse, i'm not sure. Not an issue for PDSE. There... to jump into another thread with all the PDSE bashing... this is one thing that is good. We changed our JES2 PROCLIBs to PDSE years ago because of this (long before dynamic proclib support). Also good in LNKLST... PDSE only counts as 1 extent.
