I'm not sure how important your system is, but the example you send indicates
that the bpxas is running on behalf a ssh session. If most of the bpxas address
spaces are running for ssh, you might want to investigate why you suddenly see
an increase of ssh sessions coming into your system.

Thanks. That means that the installation can use any of the normal controls.
I'd advise making BPXAS JESLOG=SPIN.

I've been reviewing someone's (ftp like) product documentation, and they
say that the userid that runs their product needs id(0) to be able to run.

Based on the hint you provide, that it's an FTP-like product, the
requirement might be for authentication and/or authorization. In
traditional Unix environments, that's a legitimate use of UID 0 (even

Hi Colin,
I'm assuming they/you mean the userID that runs the (ftp like) daemon process,
not users that are sending/receiving datasets. I have a note that I wrote to
myself 6 years ago that said that the userID that runs IBM's FTPD daemon
requires UID(0). I don't know if that's still the
Charles,
Correct it is VENDOR.PROCLIB. USER.PROCLIB was on our old ADCD back in the
old FLEX days.
We implemented some automation on Dallas to clean up spool (OTTO from the
CBTTAPE). We also paid for a lot of additional disk space so we could
extend JES spool.

Charles, imo Seymour was on the right track.
Could it have been that someone issued a $T JOBCLASS command? (Or maybe from
SDSF.)
We usually run with STC and TSU OUTDISP=(PURGE,PURGE), and the SYSOUTs
disappear at end of task. But sometimes I want to see the output so I issue $T
Here is my entry in IEFJOBS:
//BPXASJOB (SYSTEMS),'USS ADDRESS',MSGCLASS=Z
//BPXASEXEC PROC=BPXAS,GETWORK=BPXPRJSR
So, yes, IEFJOBS does work.

Incredibly busy this AM but wanted to at least say that I used @sas's "real

I did this with ICKDSF TRKFMT to erase dasd volumes..
That mentions accounting information for the BPXOINIT and OMVS address spaces,
but it doesn't mention it for BPXAS. I made a SWAG that BPXAS might go through
standard STC processing, including the master IEFJOB concatenation and the JES2

Thank you all.
@Seymour, it's working now and if it ain't broke ...
@Matthew, ditto. Thanks, but ditto.
@Wendell, the only person with authority to issue $T would have been me, and I
did not. I think usage patterns changed. We have a new developer. I don't
think he is doing anything "wrong"
If you are going to need to mount and overwrite the pool, it may be easier to
do it using an IBM linux on z system. Linxu tape handling has a lot less
requirements, and you can easily pull garbage data from /dev/urandom. It also
looks like Linux has support for autoloading volumes on ts7700
