Abend code 999 (or X'3E7')
This abend is issued for the following reasons:

* No function pool is established for a command processor.

For example, a command processor that uses ISPF services is invoked using option 6 or SELECT CMD, but the command processor does not have a function pool. The user needs to have an entry for the command processor in the ISPTCM with the X'40' flag set on. The X'40' flag indicates that the command requires a function pool. Refer to ISPF Planning and Customizing for more information on customizing the ISPTCM.

* An error occurs while another error is already being processed.

ISPF issues the abend code 999 in this case to protect against an infinite loop.

* An error occurred during ISPF initialization.

For example:

o An I/O error occurred due to ISPF library allocations such as ISPSLIB, ISPPLIB, ISPMLIB, and so forth, containing inconsistent or incorrect DCB attributes.

o An ISPF library allocation does not contain the required ISPF libraries in its concatenation. For example, the ISPMLIB contains user product libraries but not ISPF libraries.

Hello,

It would help if you post the invalid value.

Have you talked with the people who created your login process? They would be a good place to start as they can see what is happening and can correct it then.

Just a few suggestions.

Enter on the command line:

Code:

TSO ISRDDN


Then enter:
Code:

MEMBER ISPTERM


This should show you which PDS the ISPTERM member is stored in.

Now go to option 2 and display the PDS.

LOCATE ISPTERM with L ISPTERM.

See if it has been updated lately.

Here is a copy of what it might look like. Yours may be different.

Code:

If nothing is evident that something has changed, I would contact your MVS support area to research the problem. You are probably not the only one to have this issue.

I found that the ISPF profile dataset was full after trying to save some changes.
Compressed the ISPF dataset and then redoing the operation fixed that issue.
Increasing the ISPF dataset was performed by a colleague, once I logged off - to prevent / minimise the issue from reoccurring in the future.
The issue has not occurred since - so far so good.
