<snip> there is no excuse for such a large module requiring RMODE(24). </snip>
Sure there is -- if it doesn't cause a problem. But here it does cause a problem. So the real question is? what's the problem? It's not the simple problem -- I could easily imagine a customer not having a 7M private region below 16M (and that's where the "no excuse" becomes more valid), but here there is room for that big module but apparently not for even a small one in addition. That would be uncommon, but certainly conceivable (suppose the private region size is exactly 7M and the module is 7M-x'B000' bytes, thus no room for a x'C000' byte module -- and that doesn't even count all the system control blocks that are needed in below-16M private). A question for Wayne: can you find out the size of low private on your system (there are probably "pretty" ways to do this, such as some VSM health check, but if you can get the value of GDACSA that will let the answer be ascertained). CVTGDA (offset x'230' in the CVT) has the address of the GDA. GDACSA is the 4 bytes at offset x'6C' Peter Relson z/OS Core Technology Design ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
