Chris, If you have the 'NODYNAMIC' option specified for the program,
then you can't have multiple versions. Try specifying DYNAMIC for the
program statement.

From the Sysgen Manual:
DYNamic

Allows users to define additional versions of the program at runtime
either by

means of the DCMT VARY DYNAMIC PROGRAM command or, if the program

is eligible for automatic definition, through the definition of null
PDEs on the

SYSTEM statement.

DYNAMIC is the default when you specify neither DYNAMIC nor

NODYNAMIC in the PROGRAM statement.

NODynamic

Prevents users from defining additional versions of the program at
runtime.

Additionally, the system generation compiler ensures that only one
version of the

program is included in the system definition.

Hi,

=20

We are running 16.0 SP1 + many apars on z/OS 1.8 and have a need to
create a non-version 1 DC-COBOL program to test an emergency that only
happens in Production. When we try the DCMT VDP it threw a DC273912 V1
Multiple Versions of program XXXXXXXX are not allowed. Entering DCMT D
MESS DC273912 we get this The user attempted to add a program definition
dynamically, but the program is defined at system generation time with
the MULTIPLE VERSIONS NOT ALLOWED attribute. This does not appear in the
syntax for Program or System in the sysgen. We can do this on
Development where we use multiple versions but can't seem to get a
handle on where we have defined this in Production. =20

=20

Anyone know the magic sysgen parameter that we must have set differently
in production to development?

=20

Thanks

Re: Causes of a DC273912 Message
"I thought that to have a version 2 of a DC-Cobol program you needed a
//CDMSL0002 DD statement pointing to your ver 2 load library, and if you
wanted a version 99 DC-Cobol you needed a //CDMSL0099 DD statement. You
do not need to specify NODYNAM on the version 1 sysgen definition, but
you will need to specify a version 2 and a version 99 sysgen definition
for the program.

What the NODYNAM specification does is prevents a search for a currently
loaded load module through the loadlist - so that for example let's say
you have loaded an ADS dialog from a load library, and there is a
dictionary higher up in the loadlist then DC loader will look at any all
dictionaries and load libraries that are ""higher up"" in the load list
sequence to see if there is a ""dynamic"" version of the load module
available. By specifying NODYNAM you prevent this non-essential
additional searching for programs that you only ever want to be loaded
from a specific location.

That's my understanding - if it's wrong I'd love to be corrected because
in the past I've made tuning decisions on the basis of this
understanding - cheers - Gary=20
