An internal error occurred in ISPF while doing file tailoring. An unexpected error code was returned from the common STOW module (ISPCST). The module that
received the code is aaaaaaaa; the value of bbbbbbbb is the decimal return code, the value of cccccccc is the decimal reason code returned from the MVS
STOW macro. Possible STOW errors are directory out of space or I/O error. For a more complete list of possible error conditions refer to the appropriate
system documentation on the STOW macro.
