  ****************************************************************
  When IMS Sysplex Manager server archives full history dataset
  for retention purposes, PROCLIB dataset is opened to read the
  skeleton JCL for log archive function.
  Since IMS Sysplex Manager server does not issue FREEPOOL macro
  after closing PROCLIB dataset, the buffer pool assigned to
  PROCLIB dataset below the 16M line remains as garbage.
  If the archive process for full history dataset occurs many
  times, the storage area below the 16M line will contain huge
  garbage. This can cause abend U0006-00000002 in IMS Sysplex
  Manager server address space.
  

Problem conclusion

• GJERDPD$ has been changed to issue FREEPOOL macro after closing
  PROCLIB dataset.
  

Temporary fix
