This is too funny. The system is littered with suppressed S0C4 abends. Set a 
generic SLIP SOC4 for any highly active STC and it should catch within a couple 
of minutes. The chances of you capturing your S0C4 is less than 50%. If you 
need your S0c4, then ask IBM for their S0C4 suppression slips. Be sure to use 
LIMIT=1 for your slip otherwise you may get more dumps than wanted. I once 
forgot to send those to a customer who saw that my slip caught the wrong S0C4 
and decided to increase the limit. Let's just say it was not pretty and I never 
made that mistake again.

If you create your own S0C4 program, you can easily run it in your automation 
product (e.g. Netview) without jumping thru hoops. Just write a REXX to call it 
and you can set the slip just before you call your program thus increasing the 
chances you S0C4 is captured.
