Either some program is looking at a lot of storage all the time, or that storage has been pagefixed. If it was not pagefixed, the system probably would have paged some of that storage out. To see what is pagefixed you can run a RSMDATA report. :>gives me :>BLS18100I ASID(X'0001') FFB744 not available for PVT :>IAR80303I Primary RSM data area not in dump.

You can check the trace table for the various flavors of STORAGE and GETMAIN looking for unmatched pairs and repeated allocations. :>So far, thank you for your hints.... -- Binyamin Dissen <[email protected]> http://www.dissensoftware.com Director, Dissen Software, Bar & Grill - Israel Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me, you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.
