That entirely depends on whether you have taken the default of CONDITIONAL or if you code UNCONDITIONAL. If you take the default, there will be a JES2 message (not the TSO / DYNALLOC message) about the allocation failure and you will get the standard $HASP469 parm error reply message. See the JES2 init and tuning manual for more details.
There are pros/cons of each choice. If you have a way to always fix the problem (from another system for example), you may want "CONDITIONAL" so you find out about any surprises at IPL time and not later when the phone rings if someone misses the IKJ56228I message - which would be very easy to do with hundreds of messages scrolling by at IPL time. Also, the entire statement is failed, which could mean no PROCLIB concatenation at all and no way to start VTAM/TSO in order to fix the problem easily. You can fix it via operator prompt input if you can figure out the syntax. :-) That being said, I still prefer UNCONDITIONAL to let JES2 start with the PROCLIB concatenation minus the offending library. If it is an STC PROCLIB, I'll find out soon enough. :-) If it is a user proclib, well, it's not that critical anyway and I can fix it later. <g,d & r> Mark -- Mark Zelden Sr. Software and Systems Architect - z/OS Team Lead Zurich North America / Farmers Insurance Group - ZFUS G-ITO mailto:mark.zel...@zurichna.com z/OS Systems Programming expert at http://expertanswercenter.techtarget.com/ Mark's MVS Utilities: http://home.flash.net/~mzelden/mvsutil.html On Mon, 23 Nov 2009 12:41:13 -0600, Dennis Trojak <dennis.tro...@radioshack.com> wrote: >You get allocation error message IKJ56228I and JES2 continues on its >merry way.
