Hi

I am getting 878 - 10 abend in one of my job. I am not sure how to resolve this i already increased the job region to 64M earlier it was 32M.

The abend trace is as below
IEA705I ERROR DURING GETMAIN SYS CODE = 878-10 80E21214 ST100 PC020 80
IEA705I 00F40B00 008A41C8 008A41C8 00E61240 00001458
IEA705I ERROR DURING GETMAIN SYS CODE = 878-0C 814CD716 ST100 PC020 80
IEA995I SYMPTOM DUMP OUTPUT 771

Does 80 in 'ST100 PC020 80', mean the stament number in jcl?
Please let me know how to investigate further in this.

Thanks
Krishna

There is not enough virtual private area storage available to satisfy the request. This is due to one of the following:
    ° A program is requesting virtual storage, but not subsequent freeing the storage.
    ° The region size specified is too small.
    ° An installation exit is requesting virtual storage from a V=R region before initialization of the region has completed.

GETMAIN or FREEMAIN was entered through a Branch instruction generated by a GETMAIN or FREEMAIN macro.

No, this is the flag byte.

Look here:
publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/handheld/Connected/BOOKS/iea2m693/17.379

What does this step do? Why does the process need more memory?

Has this every worked or is this something new?

Hi

Thanks for reply. This step calls an IMS program which does some complex processing.

Is there any way to find out which program or module uses more memory and any way to free memory to reolve this issue.

Many Thanks

Hello,

To repeat:

Is this compiled/linked the same as other programs that call IMS subprograms?

One way to see "beginning" sizes is to look at the link edit output or the load module size in the loadlib. If the process grabs more storage "on the fly" it won't be in the initial executable module.

Hi


This was working ealrier and some complex system changes went recenlty that has casued this abend to occur.

To my surpirse everytime after i restart the job after abend(abend code S40D - 10 ) this jobs completes fine without any abend.

I am not sure what was causing the job abend.

Thanks

Hello,

Sounds like something was "out of sync".

While it may not be critical now, i'd recommend working with the ims support people to identify what caused this and maybe prevent an ugly surprise another time.
