Subject: Re: z/OS STORAGE service

Passing just to itself via a "STCM  R1,B'1111',MQCXP_EXITDATA" at exit
init time. Then I plan to release it at exit termination time. I haven't
figured out how I can continue to reuse it over and over between
different invocations.

Mike:

It sounds like you are trying to get storage that you will pickup later.

The problem is, you need to anchor it somewhere where you will be able
to find it again.

If the caller of your exit will be the same from one call to the next,
and that caller will know to pass you a workarea, then as long as they
pass that same workarea over and over, you will be able to save the
address of your storage (an anchor).

If not, and you are APF authorized, there are some possible tricks for
you so you can solve this problem.

But first, more information is needed to determine how you are being
called and why. 

I'd guess that there is some communications area that is passed to you
(by some other name, possibly?) by MQ since you are writing a user exit.
And knowing what state you are entered in will tell us a lot about how
to go about this.
