Cause

ISPF allocations were wrong.

Diagnosing The Problem

Issued the TSO ISRDDN command from the SAz/OS ISPF dialogs and noticed that the userid was not first in the ISPTLIB concatenation, this made us suspect the way the SAz/OS files were allocated.

Resolving The Problem

This issue was resolved by following the information in the Starting the Customization Dialog and Using INGDLG topics to allocate the required data sets to access the SAz/OS ISPF dialogs. The sample INGEDLG routine invokes INGDLG that invokes INGDLG2 to allocate the required data sets. See the hotlinks below.
