Re: Dataset enqueue, how to find the culprit.

So, it will depend on how often the TSO message for enqueue is produced. If it is not frequent, you may have to set slips or live with rerunning the job. Or if it is frequent, you might try adding a first step with DISP=OLD on your file. then you would have a better idea of what is doing it

Re: Recovery routine for ICHRTX00

This may sound heretical, but I lean against recovery actions for system exits. In most cases, the environment in which a system-defined exit runs is protected already. Messages are issued, dumps are taken, and some semblance of order is restored. In many cases the exit is disabled so that

When you get 'terminated at end of memory', all bets are off. This generally happens when the address space has run out of storage to the point that recovery routines cannot run. No recovery, no message processing, no preservation of sysout, etc. Your MPF entries indicate user exit processing.

Re: Dataset enqueue, how to find the culprit.

One of the quickest ways, is to go to ISPF option 3.4, and pull up that dataset, and do a "R" to rename it(don’t really rename it though). When it says 'dataset in use", hit PF1 and you get a list of jobs with enqueues on it. _

If you have RMF setup for ISPF, and the RMF VSAM files are available, you can use the ISPF RMF tool to go back in time for the enqueue information. Did you look in syslog for any GRS information? Did you go and look and see what other jobs were running when this job had this issue? Lizette

I have no particular insight into this design, but I know a few things about TPUT vs. PUTLINE. For one thing, TPUT does not even work at all in batch. Neither can it be captured by OUTTRAP in foreground or background. PUTLINE works for both. So from the evidence presented, I would guess that
