When we have had users with similar problems submitting jobs, we have discovered their SPFTEMP0.CNTL data set is multi-volume. This may not be relevant because I don't recall anyone ever having only part of their job read in and I know you're moving on, but I thought I'd throw this out there.

Keith Company -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List On Behalf Of Steve Comstock Sent: Thursday, February 04, 2010 6:57 AM A more likely cause has surfaced: at Mark's suggestion I took a look a the allocation attributes of the SPFTEMP0.CNTL data set, and it had LRECL or 80 and BLKSIZE of 800. Now you may recall that one of the symptoms was SDSF only showed my input as 10 lines of JCL. It's possible that only one block was being read in, then maybe an I/O error (bad block) kept the rest of the JCL out and that one block was passed to the Converter. Hard to be sure, and we're running under z/VM so there's several layers of code here. Since the problem has gone away, I'm moving on. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
