If the shared library cache is not big enough, then z/OS will revert
to normal storage use and the load module will be loaded into the
broker address space.

I'm ignorant of this. But did a search in IBMLink.
It appears that there are shared libraries in z/OS UNIX which are
loaded somewhere? (not documented where). The size of this area is

Lizette,
Your current value, 64MiB, is the very conservative z/OS default. If
you are 1) making significant use of Java and 2) have multiple CICS
regions in which it is in use you may safely double it and then work
back down by observing how much of it is in use over an interval of
one or two

Glen,
Long long ago and on a different continent, I was writing a FORTRAN F program
and ran into a similar issue by accident. I was compiling the program the first
time and I got a B37 on the object deck. I had initialized the large array
with zero's after figuring out the issue it was easier
Yep, I know that I have never heard of STP, I dont use STP on z/OS , no real
need.
I have used the NTPD on various Unix platforms.

An obvious corollary is that system maintenance should be done when
the local time is 0300 everywhere.
Not a bad idea unless you happen to be the one doing the maintenance half awake.

Sir,
Forgive me ... but a question if I may ...
DS has inherently been used for nothing more than to define an area
that was initialized during 'housekeeping' ..
From the last few threads, am I to take it that DS act's like a DC
in some circumstances ??.
Please acknowledge and advise.
Jim,
I'm not sure that I fully understand your question. DS defines or
maps storage.
In a CSECT or RSECT it defines the extent and makeup of storage
WITHOUT initializing it.
In a DSECT it merely maps storage, provides one of perhaps several
alternative interpretations of the data type or data
Sir,
No you are not being dumb ... I think I just misunderstood a few words
(terminology) ...
AFAIK, DS fields, quite unlike DC fields, were never 'automatically'
initialized.
Kind Regards.
Kind Regards

Continuing, DC generates object code TXT data, and DS doesn't.
That requires a new card for each change. If you write:
