You're missing the point; the TMP does not allow two command subtasks to be 
ready concurrently. That's very different from how applications normally manage 
their subtasks. TSO's rules about authorized and unauthorized commands are 
clearly relevant because one of those rules ensures that there can never be two 
command tasks running concurrently.

Subject: Re: PL/I TSO Interrupt - Attention handling - SLIP trap X33E / X13E

I got attention processing mixed up with something else.  TSO shouldn't
normally kill the command on an attention.

S13E & S33E are "normal" in many cases (outside of TSO - I'm not sure
within TSO), as it's sometimes easier to just DETACH rather than coordinate
a "proper" subtask shutdown.  So that may or may not indicate a problem.

TSO supports multi-tasking as much as jobs or STCs do; commands are indeed
ATTACHed & DETACHed; and there are a few TSO/TMP tasks running all the time
(see above).

In any case, TSO's particular rules about authorized commands aren't
relevant here.

For the original problem, I don't know anything else.  You might try it
from a READY prompt if you haven't yet.
