MVS Solutions' Thruput Manager is not the guilty party. This was introduced into JES2 with new function when "all" systems are running JES2 V1R8 in a sysplex. JES2 takes multiple $BR4 abends where eventually an IPL is needed. The code that is failing is managing the XEQCOUNT timers in the checkpoint. The system that encountered this a very heavily loaded batch processing system with many thousand of jobs per hour. Circumvention is 1. Run one of your LPARS in the SYSPLEX back at the z/OS V1R7 level. 2. Set MAXJOBS to some very high number and they think it would be avoided.
