Hello folks,
we have read problems with DFSORT + z/OS 1.6 if you specify MOSIZE=MAX +
VERIFY=NO. Then jobs ends with RC0 but records are not sorted.
Problem is fixed with PK05024: INCORRECT RECORD SEQUENCE USING MEMORY

It is indeed DFSMS's "global connect" that prevents a PDSE in the IPL-time
LNKLST from being deleted.
It is this area and related areas that we intend to change in z/OS V1R8.

Bruce,
We are currently migrating from z/OS 1.4 to z/OS 1.7 and we had the same
problem
with our IGDACSMC (management class) exit.
It seems that at some version of DFSMS between z/OS 1.4 and 1.7 the coding
requirements
for assigning a class in the ACS exits has changed.
For some reason, this is

We had just migrated from Line Printing to AFP Mode.
Is there a way to still printing Line Data Flux to AFP-Printers (HCD

In one of our exits, we use TPUT with USERIDL=(15) where register 15

Without mining thru previous posts--I thought the dangling issue was the

Isn't that the case where system reset is proposed as necessary?

Alas, no.
I guess my wording is a bit unclear.
I am not sure what you mean "program the time/date in UTC", but the
Cobol function CURRENT-DATE will return the current local date and time
and the UTC offset. This does assume that the system you are running
the cobol program on is setup so that it running with the correct local
