Problem conclusion


    

  • The extraneous bits will be properly ignored.

The following publication changes are needed for this solution:
1. SA23-1370  z/OS MVS Programming: Assembler Services
                 Reference IAR-XCT
2. SA23-1375  z/OS MVS Programming: Authorized Assembler
                 Services Reference SET-WTO
The description of return code x'1C' is being removed
from the
description of the STORAGE macro.
