Yup, I have a copy of Mark's program available. Was hoping to find a simpler/shorter block of code that would work :)
2+3 won't work... why? The XCOM bit works 99% of the time, there are just some times that it doesn't work. The next run that happens within half an hour goes OK, in most cases. – Vignesh Mainframe Infrastructure -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Elardus Engelbrecht Sent: Thursday, February 04, 2016 1:15 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Obtaining current ASID in REXX Sankaranarayanan, Vignesh wrote: >I'm looking to add a REXX logic to the beginning of an ad-hoc STC. >Runs twice in an hour.

Using the output will help you to locate ALL the instances and get rid of them. HTH!
