Yep - from the SMFEWTM documentation in the "SMF" manual : "MODE=XMEM specifies that the caller is entered in cross-memory mode (the primary address space is not the home address space). The caller must be in primary ASC mode. If you specify MODE=XMEM, you must specify BRANCH=YES and WRKAREA."

Baker Sent: Wednesday, September 22, 2010 7:10 AM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Re: IEFU85 Rob, Ok. That makes sense. However, I think that in a abundance of caution I should load all access registers with an ALET of zero (0), other than where I am accessing storage in another address space. John P. Baker -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Rob Scott Sent: Wednesday, September 22, 2010 9:57 AM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Re: IEFU85 IEFU85 is invoked when SMFEWTM is invoked with the BRANCH=YES and XMEM=YES operands. Note that the caller *must* be in primary ASC mode - so all items referenced by the IEFU85 exit parameter list will be in the PASN so you do not need any ALETs to access them. One very clear and useful (to me) usage of SMFEWTM with BRANCH=YES and XMEM=YES would be when you want to write an SMF record from a PC-ss routine. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
