What is the DD statement? Is it allocated in the Proc or the Clists?

Define 'full' - all allocated extends full or just the directory? Or does it 
just needs some loving care using 'compress'?

Others have suggested many great solutions. But id depends how the dataset is 
allocated/used/updated/etc.

If that library is used OUTSIDE your Sysplex, it will be broken sooner or 
later... ouch.

Good advice, thanks Jan! I would rather use ANOTHER procedure without that 
library (or just comment it out and logoff/logon) and then do above steps.

Indeed. Thats too bad, too sad.

This is why we have emergency TSO procs [1] with minimal DD statements for just 
this problem and other logon failures.

[1] - I have at least 3 of them. Just the bare minimum to get me in ISPF menu, 
another one with SDSF, RACF and ISMF and last one which just give me READY.
