Any common-storage subpool is fine.

No it does not mean that. It means that the resmgr gets control with 
home=*master* (ASID 1). 
It does mean that if this is truly an address space RESMGR you could 
conceivably obtain storage in ASID=1 (although that cannot be done by 
specifying an ALET that "points to master" unless you are already running 
in ASID 1 in which case the ALET is unnecessary).

You also did not identify exactly what kind of RESMGR you truly 
established. What is your invocation, and what did you do to get your 
module into the storage you obtained for it?

If your RESMGR is not getting control, among the choices are
-- you did not identify it properly to the system
-- the storage you think you obtained does not have the module you think 
it does 
-- for a task termination resgmr, the task has not terminated
-- for an address space resmgr, the address space has not terminated.

An address space resmgr should almost never be used in isolation. There 
should be a task termination resmgr to deal with termination of the 
jobstep program task. Only if that resmgr cannot do its job and the 
address space does terminate should an address space resmgr have anything 
to do. Note that a batch job's address space (an initiator) does not 
terminate when the batch job terminates.
