506

Explanation

The error occurred during processing of a LINK(X), LOAD, ATTACH(X), or XCTL(X) macro in an overlay program.

Note: An overlay program can run only in 24-bit addressing mode, not in 31-bit addressing mode.

If the requested program had been loaded, not enough virtual storage would have remained for the overlay supervisor.

System action

The system issues an ABEND dump. The task ends abnormally.

System programmer response

Have the operator enter a START GTF command specifying tape output, MODE=EXT and TIME=YES. Have the operator reply TRACE=SYS in response to message AHL100A.

Format the output with the IPCS GTFDATA subcommand.

Programmer response

Reduce the size of the entire program or of the overlay segment. If this is not possible, change the program from an overlay program to a dynamically loaded program. Then recompile and run the job step again.

Problem determination

If the error recurs and the program is not in error, see the system program response for the messages in the job log.

If the problem persists, search problem reporting databases for a fix for the problem. If no fix exists, contact the IBM® Support Center. Provide the ABEND dump and the source program listing for the job.
