Before that command was available, I used this process to prevent Operations
from IPLing from volumes I didn't want them to;
//ASM EXEC HLASMC,PARM='NOGOFF'
//SYSIN DD*
NOIPLSTART 0
BALR 12,0
USING *,12
LPSW WAITDBF
DS0D
WAITDBF DCXL8'000A0
No joy. As the documentation indicates, this simply adds for example
"(errno2=0x76697242)" to the string returned by strerror(). I can do that with
%X. I want the explanation available only from BPXMTEXT.

That’s correct Barbara.
