Quote from the diagnosis book: "It is easier for IBM Service to solve a problem when a test case is available. Include a test case with your problem report wherever possible."
This really rubs me the wrong way, not because it isn't true, but because to me it sounds like justification why these highly intermittend, non-reproducible problems are never found! To someone used to z/OS and finding the bug with the one and only dump ever produced (because it is a serialization problem of some sort, possibly caused by the fact that multiple processors can execute the same instruction at exactly the same time), this sounds like an excuse, proven by the way these problems are always handled, due to lack of skill and knowledge.. <rant off> Barbara -- Psssst!
