Does STOPX37 not have a special DD card you code that tells it to ignore
processing for this step.  Something like //PROIGNOR or //IGNORPRO,
something like that?

Subject: STOPX37 & SMS loop

Has anybody using STOPX37 seen a problem where it gets in a loop
fighting with SMS over an insufficient space condition?   Anybody
have suggestions on how to avoid it?

Details:
A process is submitted via CONNECT:Direct (aka NDM) specifying SMS STORCLAS,
MGMTCLAS, and DATACLAS  that result in selection of volumes with too little
space for the dataset being transfered. 
1. SMS says
IGD17272I VOLUME SELECTION HAS FAILED FOR INSUFFICIENT SPACE FOR DATASET ...


2. STOPX37 says
SVM4000I ...  ATTEMPTING SPACPRIM FOR ...

3.  SMS repeats indefinitely
IGD17272I VOLUME SELECTION HAS FAILED FOR INSUFFICIENT SPACE FOR DATASET ...


Is there some way to cause a hard failure in situations like this?

I don't think CONNECT:Direct is significant in this except that this request
is coming from an outside business partner.  We have absolutely no control
over the size of the dataset or SMS parms specified.  

BTW, SMS and STOPX37 are way out of my areas of responsibility
and expertise.   I'm going to have to convey any suggestions to 
others that don't read IBM-Main.   Don't assume comprehension
on my part.
