Hi Barbara, no, we did not have Compuware in this environment. But the callrtm command seams something we need to look at. Thanks for that.

Do you by any chance run Compuware Xpediter or something under IMS? A few jobs ago, we had the same problem with our IMS regions, and it turned out that Compuware code was hindering termination. (I took a dump and looked.) In some cases I was successful by using the (unsupported) callrtm program that is now a (supported) operator command. I specified the asid and the bottommost tcb and ran that program a number of times. In about 70% of the cases it succeeded in terminating the hung region, in the remaining 30% they needed a complete IMS restart (to enable to user whose id was blocked) to work again.
