Re: SV: Why is GRS ENQ needed in SMFDUMP program?
A nagging doubt since my earlier post compelled me to go look at the UCB mapping. It seems that the bit is actually a one-byte count which makes sense for concurrent RESERVE activity. === Date: Sun, 1 Jul 2012 00:28:04 -0400 From: shmuel+...@patriot.net Subject: Re: SV: Why is GRS ENQ needed in SMFDUMP program?

Rather, it set a bit in the UCB to tell the next IO to the unit to prepend a reserve CCW to the channel program. That was the original design, but these days there's an option to issue an I/O with a reserve CCW at the time that the ENQ SVC issued by the RESERVE macro obtains the resource. I don't recall what release added the option. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz, SysProg and JOAT Atid/2http://patriot.net/~shmuel We don't care. We don't have to care, we're Congress.

Assuming that you want a solution in the STC code rather than in the JCL, use SETPRT DISP=SCHEDULE. If the DD has FREE=CLOSE, DISP=EXTERNAL will also work. the main idea is to free some of the space which a specific STC is holding while avoiding restarting the STC.
