Thanks guys, appreciate your superfast replies. As such this thread is closed. I just go on mumbling a bit. The whole story has potential to drive me crazy. While a few hours ago I could reliably reproduce a S0C9 having a certain IMS SLDS (secondary log data set) as input dataset, now that you have all answered my question the symptom evaporated wisteriously. Strange. I still do have all the versions of the load library involved. I still have the S0C9ing JCL in the JES spool (so I can recover the exact JCL), yet whatever I try I get a clean execution. I use the same datasets, even the same concatenation of them although the job had always bombed as soon as the very first input tape was mounted.
Thought I wait a bit before saying Thank you as you all gave the thread an interesting twist.
