I like sysconf() = BPX1SYC, as it's harmless and fast. > Some reasons are > 1. no omvs segment > 2. no uid in the omvs segment > 3. no gid in the omvs segment There are at least five reason codes like this that go with a retcode of EMVSINITIAL, and unfortunately IBM maintains that one is not supposed to examine them programatically, but merely report them. But of course with any of these codes, it is impossible to get the error message from the system, because the needed pfsctl() = BPX1PCT will fail! Sigh...
