Alan's CALL DIAG 8 above works like a champ. I did confirm (I think) that Rob's statement that using the XAUTOLOG w/options doesn't work with the DEFINE STORAGE CONFIG. I'm not entirely sure I got the statement right, though, being a novice at this. I tried both: XAUTOLOG LINUX DEFINE STORE CONFIG 0.256M 272M.256M which seemed to fail immediately, and: XAUTOLOG LINUX #DEFINE STORE CONFIG 0.256M 272M.256M which seemed to process but not give me my memory hole. In any case, the PROFILE EXEC statement above works with: CALL DIAG 8,"DEF STORAGE CONFIG 0.256M 272M.1008M" || '15'X || "IPL 100" Now all I have to do is learn more about "CALL DIAG..." :) Thanks much to all!
