AELA

Explanation

The executing function has been purged before control could be returned.

System action

The transaction is marked to be abnormally terminated with abend code AELA.

User response

Investigate the reason the task was purged. It was purged either by the master terminal operator, or as a result of a deadlock timeout.

If the task was purged by the master terminal operator, this may have been in an attempt to clear the system which appeared to be deadlocked for some reason.

If the task was timed out automatically as a result of the DTIMOUT value being exceeded, this may be due to insufficient main storage being available for the number of tasks in the system. If the amount of main storage cannot be increased then the number of tasks in the system should be reduced to avoid short-on-storage situations. Another possibility would be to increase the value of the DTIMOUT option for the transaction.
