Issue/Introduction

Getting the following error messages trying to run a compiled OPS/REXX program:

OPS3092O CANNOT OPEN OPSEXEC(STATESET) (ABEND X'000C3')

OPS3092O ESTAE LEVEL 1 PROGRAM CHECK CODE=0C1 

Environment

OPS/MVS

Cause

A dataset in the OPSEXEC concatenation had incorrect record length (LRECL) attributes, preventing the proper loading of compiled OPS/REXX programs. Another possible cause is missing permissions to read a library in the OPSEXEC concatenation.

Resolution

1. Identify the libraries allocated to the OPSEXEC DD concatenation.
2. Verify the DCB attributes of each library. For OPS/MVS compiled REXX (CCLXOPEX), the expected LRECL should be 4096 (or 4090).
3. Check for empty or "shell" datasets in the concatenation that may have been initialized with standard LRECL=80 (FB) attributes.
4. Remove or recreate any offending datasets with the correct attributes.
5. Make sure the OPS/MVS userid has the proper permissions to read all libraries in the OPSEXEC concatenation
