Although, on second thought, I doubt that it will help Bob's issue since he reported that it was *MASTER* that held the allocation. The SETPROG LNKLST,UNALLOCATE issue only helps if XCFAS is the address space holding up the enqueue.
Bob's issue seems to me to be more of either a page dataset or maybe BRODCAST or UADS or somesuch. PAGEDEL will address page dataset issues. There are IKJ... PARMLIB commands to deal with BRODCAST and/or UADS. -- Tom Schmidt Madison, WI On Mon, 26 Sep 2005 12:25:11 -0500, Tom Schmidt wrote: >Yes.
