Well, shoot. I realized as I was quoting it that it was not the latest and greatest, but so little changes in the existing interfaces that I did not worry about it.
I tend to work always from the doc for the oldest release of the OS that *we* support, so I don't get seduced by some new feature that is not yet available to me. That is currently V2R1. So -- just curiosity, does not matter to me at this juncture -- an ESTAI routine passed once on a single ATTACH could potentially get driven multiple times as an ABEND of the parent task was propagated to various daughter tasks?

I saw Charles' reference in z/OS 2.2 KC but in z/OS 2.4 it has been improved to: "any STAI or ESTAI recovery routines defined for the attached task are automatically propagated to its subtasks." ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
