Hello: As designed, an ESTAE routine can recover from a (for example) 0C4 abend. The abend can happen, but the ESTAE can be coded so no one is the wiser than an abend has happened.
However, if there is a SLIP set for (for example) C=0C4, it seems the SLIP and its action parms will take precedence over the ESTAE. So the nicely coded ESTAE which masks any abends is ignored, and the actual cause of the abend is exposed. I guess under certain circumstances this can be a good thing, but is there a way to have an ESTAE or some other recovery routine be immune to any SLIP processing? Thank you for any insight you can provide.
