If it is in a key zero CSA subpool, then yes you need to be in key zero. Even if you do a fast wait, ie test the completed bit, you will want to clear the ECB once it is posted and to do that you will need to be in key zero.
Anyway, if you aren't in the right key, you'll get an 0C4 fast enough. :) Chris Blaicher Technical Architect Mainframe Development Syncsort Incorporated 50 Tice Boulevard, Woodcliff Lake, NJ 07677 P: 201-930-8234 | M: 512-627-3803 E: [email protected] www.syncsort.com -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of michelbutz Sent: Wednesday, June 8, 2016 9:29 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Clarification of ECBLIST Do I have to be in key 0 to wait on ecb in CSA Sent from my iPhone > On Jun 8, 2016, at 2:11 PM, Greg Dyck <[email protected]> wrote: > >> On 6/8/2016 7:07 AM, michelbutz wrote: >> The XMEM post is being done from a FRR resulting from an abend in a >> SRB the SRB is the primary address space > > Putting an ECB in common storage is allowed, but great care must be taken > when doing so. > > As has already been said, if issuing the POST from another address space a > cross-memory post must be done.
