> useful -- namely the ASID of the address space that just terminated! Well, to be more precise: a 33E abend indicated that *a* TCB terminates while still having subtasks unterminated. The terminating TCB does not necessarily be the jobstep TCB and can be recovered by the mother TCB and for that and other reasons it does not necessarily indicate that the entire address space terminates. If it is the jobstep TCB of a batchjob, then the job will fail, but the address space will still not terminate.
