Issue/Introduction

Description

What is the reason for getting error message IRX0159E when trying to invoke DBA feature ICBM (IMS Control Block Manager) from ISPF, and how can this problem be avoided?

Solution

The message 'IRX0159E run time processor EAGRTPRC is not available' occurs when the REXX runtime library is NOT available to the ISPF session.

Usually the REXX runtime library (low level qual. SEAGALT) has been added to the OS system linklist concatenation, so that this problem does NOT occur.

If SEAGALT is NOT part of the linklist, this library needs to be added to the ISPF logon procedure's STEPLIB DD statement to avoid getting message IRX0159E.
