:>z/OS exits have built in recovery, diagnostics and recursive abend handling. 
Since IBM did the work for you in exits, there's no need to duplicate that part 
of recovery.

SRB's w/o TCB percolation fail quite silently. The IBM recovery is simply to
clean up the SRB. So if you put recovery in a SRB and the recovery fails, it
will be silent.

Best to have the main recovery routine do the full stuff and attempt to retry
to finish what is needed.

The recovery routine for the recovery routine will dump, mark things in CSA
and percolate..
