Fast Unload for DB2 for z/OS Database Management for DB2 for z/OS - Utilities Suite

Issue/Introduction

Executing Fast Unload for Db2 for z/OS (PFU) and reporting the following errors:

IEF085I REGION UNAVAILABLE, ERROR CODE=20 
IEF187I S70N081N FAILED - SYSTEM ERROR IN INITIATOR 
IEF450I S70N081N STEP445 - ABEND=S822 U0000 REASON=00000014 



Environment

Release: 20.0
Component: PFU

Resolution

The step which failed due to insufficient region was coded as:

//STEP445 EXEC PGM=PTLDRIVM, 
// PARM='EP=UTLGLCTL/ssid', 
// REGION=16M

Recommendation would be to specify REGION=0M on step or JOBCARD if allowed.
REGION=0M is recommended and the REGION specification on the JOBCARD
will override the step REGION specification.  If REGION=0M is not allowed,
then specify a REGION larger than 16M or lower than the available
initiator REGION available such as REGION=8M.
