Re: Command execution through OUTTRAP giving rc -1645

You need to do the PROFILE VARSTORAGE(HIGH) before calling the script. It will remain in effect across logons. It might help to release storage no longer needed, e.g., drop variables. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz http://mason.gmu.edu/~smetz3 From: IBM

Yes Shmuel, PROFILE VARSTORAGE(HIGH) is set already. Somehow, still giving the same error. On Thu, Apr 7, 2022 at 2:35 PM Seymour J Metz wrote: > You need to do the PROFILE VARSTORAGE(HIGH) before calling the script. It > will remain in effect across logons. > > It might help to release

To be pedantic, TZ does not itself contain the rules for DST. That's the domain of the timezone database, tzinfo. Now, what I'd go for is to use tzinfo - which is well understood and well maintained - to set both the CLOCKxx and TZ parameters. That would probably require sticking it in a SYS1

If part of a customers cloud contract uses CICS, DB2, IMS, or other IBM software, it certainly should be booked as cloud revenue. It’s a frivolous lawsuit which I doubt ever gets to trial. Plus, it’s not like IBM is selling at a multiple like other cloud companies based on IBM’s cloud growth.
