OK, to answer a few questions:

It makes NO difference if I run it under ISPF (which is where it will be
once completed) or IKJEFT01 batch. SCP = z/OS 1.12

Here are the pieces you might want to see:


  CALL  RPTFILE
  ADDRESS TSO

  msg_val = MSG("ON")
  TRACE "I"
  "EXECIO * DISKW DLBUT1 (OPEN)"



And now for RPTFILE:

RPTFILE: NOP

ADDRESS "TSO"

   msg_val = MSG("ON")
   TRACE "I"
   "ALLOC DSNAME('"||dsname||"') DDNAME(BLDUT1) OLD "
   x = rc /* capture the ALLOC RC */
   IF x > 0 THEN DO
      alloc_str = "NEW CATALOG SPACE(1,3) CYLINDERS BLKSIZE(0) " ,
               || " LRECL(255) RECFM(V,B) DSORG(PS) RELEASE UNIT(3390) "
      IF diag THEN SAY "ALLOCATE will use: " alloc_str

      "ALLOC DSNAME('"||dsname||"') DDNAME(BLDUT1)  " || alloc_str
      x = RC
      TRACE "N"
   END

  ADDRESS "SYSCALL"

   RETURN x

---------------------------------

The ADDRESS "SYSCALL" in *this* case was not needed, because as you can
see the following code does an ADDRESS "TSO" right after coming back.

Here is the result of the working ALLOC:

      >O>    "ALLOC DSNAME('DLBUILD.some qualifiers') DDNAME(BLDUT1) OLD "
  367 *-*  x = rc /**/
      >V>    "0"


And for the EXECIO:

    274 *-* "EXECIO * DISKW DLBUT1 (OPEN)"
        >L>   "EXECIO * DISKW DLBUT1 (OPEN)"
IRX0555E The input or output file DLBUT1 is not allocated. It cannot be
opened for I/O.
IRX0670E EXECIO error while trying to GET or PUT a record.
        +++ RC(20) +++

So I'm baffled. I am not using PROCEDURE in this subroutine, the code that
does use PROCEDURE is after all other non-procedure users in this source.

Anyone have any idea why the main line can't find the DCB (or DDNAME)?


Steve,

Look closely my friend. BLDUT <> DLBUT. Be sure to check for APARs against IEBIBALL.
