REXX execs in TSO batch issuing operator commands and reading the returned messages have started failing to get the messages most but not all of the time now that we have gone to z/OS 1.7. For instance:

[snip]
   18 *-*  "CONSOLE SYSCMD(D U,TAPE,ALLOC) CART('DUDASD')"
      >>>    "CONSOLE SYSCMD(D U,TAPE,ALLOC) CART('DUDASD')"
   19 *-*  GETCODE = GETMSG('MSG.','SOL','DUDASD',,99)
      >>>    "4"
Up until z/OS 1.7, the GETCODE return code would always be zero even with the wait time coded as 5 instead of the 99 seconds I have specified here. The SYSLOG shows
[snip]
Does anyone have an idea of how to remedy this?
After further investigation, it seems that "D U" commands with the ALLOC parameter might be the only ones for which I can't get the associated messages.
