Since z/OS 2.3 you have been able to identify modules as wanting to be RMODE 64, via what Ed Jaffe mentioned (including RMODEX=64TRUE). Just about the only thing that is guaranteed for an RMODE 64 module is that your module will survive being undispatched and redispatched (such as on a time

Yes, it is. However nowadays it seems to be harder than use RMODE31 and the need seems to be in far future. Again: I'm not talking about AMODE. BTW: I wish I would forget about 24-bit modes. -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland W dniu 21.12.2020 o 17:07, Joe Monk pisze: "Out of curiosity:

Before you can ask for RMODE64, your program must be AMODE64. Then linkage editor option RMODE(64) asks for the program to be located above the 2GB line, but may or may not be honored. On Mon, Dec 21, 2020 at 8:27 AM Paul Gilmartin <000433f07816-dmarc-requ...@listserv.ua.edu> wrote: > > On
