Look at $SYSOUTC for $OPTIONS and see what you have coded. If this turns out to be your problem, it would be really sad that a CA ASM2 support person couldn't point you to it and I would raise that fact up to the support manager. I found this in the planning guide: 2.2.56 SYSOUTC (SYSOUT Class) Default: DC X'00' This is the SYSOUT class used to dynamically allocate AMSOUT and SYSPRINT for IXR. If you specify X'00', you will allocate to the default SYSOUT class for the IXR address space. If you want to specify a specific class; that is, for CLASS=A you would change the above field to DC C'A'. -- Mark Zelden Sr. Software and Systems Architect - z/OS Team Lead Zurich North America / Farmers Insurance Group - ZFUS G-ITO mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] z/OS Systems Programming expert at http://expertanswercenter.techtarget.com/ Mark's MVS Utilities: http://home.flash.net/~mzelden/mvsutil.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
