More SRB debugging hints:
The SRB routine may never have been dispatched, or was dispatched
with a lot of other higher-priority activity (especially SRBs)
running. This would depend on whether you SCHEDULEd your SRB as
global or local and what other work was running on all the various
processors at that instant. Look in the system trace to make sure
your SRB was ever dispatched. And I believe that XDC can be used to
trace code running in SRB mode.

Subject: IPCS help needed
Looking at an SVC dump of my application. Dump was produced
by my FRR when the SRB that was running timed out. 05B abend. I
set a timer when the SRB initially kicks off.
The logic in the SRB is processing some data areas, working
its way from top to bottom in a linked/chained list of these same
sized data areas.
The list in the dump has thousands of entries. One of two
possibilities. Either the linked list has an invalid chain ptr,
and the code is running in circles. Or, the list is good, and I
just needed to give the code a longer period of time to run.
My question. Is there a way within IPCS I can describe the
data area containing the chain pointer, and then run some kind of
a command that would run the list to determine if the list is good or not?
I'm in the IPCS manuals right now, but if its there, its not
jumping out at me. Any help would be appreciated.
