My logic is such that I terminate (neatly, with CSA and exit cleanup) at that point so I never have a second time through. One would have to experiment. > Would it be possible to load the LE dump routine instead of doing the initial > GETMAIN? And your own routine? That occurred to me but I did not try it. That would potentially be a better solution because one would not be guessing at the amount of storage required. I'm a commercial product developer, not a z/OS researcher (<g>) and so "works perfectly" is good enough for me. Also, this is just an interim solution until Mr. R beats the LE people into putting their stuff into LPA. There is no "my routine" -- my recovery code is all resident in the main load module. > Do you have issues with something else looking for storage while you are > processing the first one? Nope. There quite intentionally are no new's, GETMAINs or malloc()'s in the recovery code. And very quickly it starts doing delete's like there was no tomorrow (which there isn't, at least not for that instance). > Is the dump output in the dataset where the four blank lines were, and are > they still there, or perhaps some "artefact" of failure? I did not think to look explicitly for the four blank lines but the dump looked "perfect" at first glance. It has the traceback which is the main thing I was interested in. Perhaps the four blank lines are "between sections." Before, the sections were missing so the blank lines looked out of place. Now the sections are there, so the blank lines look appropriate. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
