For testing purposes yes. The DIAGxx TRAP CsvRentSP252.

That is true whether you have REFR or RENT,REFR.

I don't see that. When REFRPROT is in effect and the module has the REFR 
option it will be placed into key 0 page-protected storage, not key 8 
(assuming other environmental factors are true, the same as for will does 
not care about key). It page-protects. Not even key 0 can write into that 
using the virtual address (stores into "real" work). Dave C, send me a 
note offline and maybe we can figure out what's going on. At the least, I 
can show you what I tried and you can try that specific thing (or vice 
versa)
