>Regarding Common Storage SP253 or SP241 SP253 is not common storage. It is fixed task-owned private (LSQA).
>STORAGE OBTAIN,LENGTH=(R0),LOC=31,BNDRY=DBLWD >STORAGE OBTAIN,LENGTH=(R0),LOC=31,BNDRY=DBLWD,SP=0 What I found puzzling about the query is "why the need for clarification?". Is there something that should be clarified in the books? What did the OP find confusing about the "default" for subpool? >STORAGE OBTAIN,LENGTH=(R0),LOC=31,BNDRY=DBLWD By the way, it's good style, even if not truly necessary for unauthorized programs since they do not have the authority to page-fix storage, to identify the allowable real-storage backing for fixed storage by using the 2-operand form of LOC such as LOC=(31,64).
