Environment

Release : 12.2

Component : CA NetMaster Network Management for TCP/IP

Cause

The S013-18 abend means the following:

S013-18  Empty PDS member, or PDS member not found.

Resolution

There was a typo in the SXCTL DD member. 

          In the RUNSYSIN it is SXPCPL3 
but in your update you have SPXCPL3 

notice the 'X' and 'P' is reversed.

DD=SXCTL,DISP=SHR,DSN=CA.R12.NMC2.NM.PARMLIB(SXPCPL3)
                                                 CA.R12.NMC2.NM.PARMLIB(SPXCPL3)
