Symptom:
Our batch job that runs against CA Dispatch is failing with a RC=16. A review of the output shows an ERROR STATUS CODE of 1472.
Cause:
The IDMS Error Messages and Codes Manual defines the major status code of 72 as follows:
72 Insufficient memory is available for load or storage
allocation. If operating under the central version, the
return of this minor code usually indicates that the program
pool, reentrant pool, or storage pool is too small. If
running in local mode, this code indicates that the
region/partition size for the application program is too
small.
Resolution:
In most cases, occurrences of this particular error status code can be resolved simply by increasing the REGION setting, in your batch jobs JCL, on the step that received the error.
Example:
Change
//EXECUTIL EXEC PGM=CADSUTIL,REGION=2048K,
To
//EXECUTIL EXEC PGM=CADSUTIL,REGION=0M,
