Thanks Barbara. I've got that hint yesterday, and was then checking the archives. I have indeed found the threads you're talking about (and this is what I mentioned in a later post on this topic). However, I only found DBM1 and IRLM mentioned in this context, DSNX9WLM. I just checked the MEMLIMIT column for those DSNX9WLM jobs running right now. The show the MEMLIMIT that was set in the JCL. But, as a matter of fact, I also see that intance of a DSNX9WLM job that ran a few days ago, and for which both the IEF023I message as well as MainView report it has been using 10 x the MEMLIMIT. Some other important batch jobs are seen to have as much as 450 pages/sec (demaind paging) at that time. We do not normaly have any paging. I'd rather get that DSN job under control. Just don't know how. Not good if software whatsoever starts to override system controls. -- Peter Hunkeler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
