Amar, we just had this happen on a totally different program. What was happening was the user had created an EXEC on there A disk that was identical to the name on another disk. When they run their EXEC, it basically kept calling itself causing recursion and exceeding available SVC's So, look for duplicate file names. Steve

Recently, it started giving this error every time we make a progr am run through VMSERVE. I am not very experienced in z/VM so any help is appreciated! System : z/VM Version 5 Release 2.0, Service Level 0801 (64-bit) WWVM ESA CMS 15 012 VMSERVE starts fine but as soon as it runs a program, VMSERVE crashes and ends with this error, DMSITS135S Maximum SVC depth 200 has been exceeded. DMSITS135S Maximum SVC depth 200 has been exceeded. It probably means : The CMS system does not allow the nesting level of SV Cs to exceed 'nnnn'. But not sure what can be done to fix this. Regards, Amar
