Our product is called as a subroutine of the user's program (usually COBOL).  Most of our code is user key, but on the first call for a task we issue a PC to set a RESMGR exit.  This exit allows us to freemain our control blocks and close any datasets we may have opened whether the task abends or not.
Recently we observed that when a task abends, the DCBs/ACBs are already 
closed when we get control in the RESMGR exit.  We know this was not 
true under z/OS 2.1, but has occurred on our z/OS 2.3 system and at a 
customer site recently.  This has no significant consequences because 
all we do is issue a message.  But I have not been able to find any 
documentation which would have allowed us to anticipate this behavioural 
change.  So I thought I'd ask you all if you'd observed this or know 
what changed..
