Do you run a User Locking monitor? If so, you can view the report at
any time from the Control Center Monitor List function. That will show
you the number of User and System blocks allocated and used.
I do not see any references to this condition either.

Hi,
I was asked for help with a Linux install problem and it seems that the
Linux parameter file, stored in a CMS file, had been folded to upper case.
Getting the parameter file with the correct case will probably fix the

The default setting seems to be CASE UPPER for most file

Mike,
The XEDIT default settings are described in Appendix A of the z/VM: XEDIT
Commands and Macros Reference. The case settings are determined by the
filetype of the file. If the filetype is not one in the recognized list,
then the case defaults to upper.
Thanks!

We have both a system Profile Xedit and user ones. Both set different
defaults for different file types. The original came from IBM on a
release of VM in the 80's, and I created my version in 1989. Now I tend
to favour LEXX.

Excellent response, Richard! Changing ancient defaults is not backward

Hi Bill, This means the agent wants to read a directory block from disk, but
there are no available directory buffers, so the agent waits for another agent
to free up a buffer. When a buffer is freed, this agent will be un-waited so
it can try to get the buffer again. This indicates an
