to find an ARR address, we need to reconstruct the PC number from the linkage stack entry, so we can use it to locate the Entry Table Entry for the PC number, which contains the ARR address). On Tue, 29 Jul 2014 17:39:44 -0400 Jim Mulder d10j...@us.ibm.com wrote: : The issued PC is 16 bit

Is there any trace put in the MVS trace table when a slip fires? Or is there any other way to see which LCP we were running on at the time? I had a look in the PSA and the control registers but didn't spot anything. SYSTRACE will have an SPER entry when a SLIP PER trap is matched. Jim

may uncover this additional time spent on the SPKA instruction. This change in SPKA behavior does not offset the benefits the z196 provides for the CICS environment. This aspect of the longer SPKA execution time can be exacerbated by running on a subcapacity machine. Jim Mulder z/OS System Test
