Now, I don't understand. I just tried:
//STEP EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01,DYNAMNBR=10
... with the EXEC:
/* Rexx main program. */
trace C
do I = 1 to 11
address 'TSO' 'allocate dsn(TEST'I') new delete'
if RC<>0 then leave I; end
do J = 1 to 11
RC = BPXWDYN( 'alloc DSN('userid()'.TEST'J') new delete' ,
'rtddn(D) msg(WTP)' )
if RC<>0 then leave J
say 'Allocated' D; end J
exit( RC )
... it successfully allocated 22 data sets. AFAIK, 22 is greater than 10.
What's happening here?
