Instead of a CP ABEND when PAGE space runs out CP could terminate a virtual machine to free up memory/PAGE space. I would much rather see
*any* virtual machine terminate than have CP ABEND and terminate them all . There are lots of potential options/tuning knobs that could be devised to aid CP in prioritizing/determining which virtual machine(s) to terminate.
