My favorite: S40D with a nice message about the initiator being terminated at end of memory. The S40D, IIRC, was caused by exhausting the LSQA. So the initiator couldn't do an GETMAINs in order to terminate properly. The real fun is that RTM did NOT get control and so _all_ the DSNs which were allocated to the job remained "allocated" (well, ENQUEUEd) until we IPL'd. Thankfully, that only happened once, about 7 years ago. Of course, I now know how to do a directed DEQ (not available at the time) to eliminate an ENQ that I "don't like". <grin/> -- If you sent twitter messages while exploring, are you on a textpedition?
