The text in your messages does not match the text in your WRITE statements. Are you sure you have the correct ACS routine?
-----Original Message----- From: Lizette Koehler [mailto:snip] Sent: Tuesday, September 02, 2008 11:51 AM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: ACS Write Statement Limitations I am trying to figure out how to correct this issue. I am at z/OS V1.9. IGD01008I *********************************************************** IGD01008I ** A L L O C A T I O N F A I L E D ! ! ** IGD01008I *********************************************************** IGD01008I ** DATA SET DOES NOT CONFORM TO PROD NAMING STANDARDS ** IGD01008I ** PLEASE CONTACT STORAGE MANAGEMENT FOR FURTHER DETAILS ** IGD01008I MESSAGES ISSUED BY STORCLAS ROUTINE HAVE EXCEEDED BUFFER AREA. NOT ALL MESSAGES WERE WRITTEN. According to the DFSMS manual I am only allowed 110 characters. However, I have the following coded ----+----1----+----2----+----3----+----4----+----5----+----6----+----7-- ----+----1----+----2----+----3----+----4----+----5----+----6----+- WRITE '***********************************************************' WRITE '** A L L O C A T I O N F A I L E D ! ! **' WRITE '***********************************************************' WRITE '** DATA SET DOES NOT CONFORM TO SYSTEM STANDARDS *******' WRITE '** PLEASE CONTACT STORAGE MANAGEMENT FOR FURTHER DETAILS **' WRITE '***********************************************************' EXIT CODE(22) END Which is 299 characters (spaces counted). Is there a way around this so I can produce more lines? Or do I have to reduce my content until it is at or below 110 characters? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
