- Without more information (the JCL log would be handy here) than what you
- supply, its a tough call to make, but some hints might help.
-
- Sometimes when you run a "big" job it will fail because the SYSTEM disk
- pack that you're using is too full. Running at another time (when fewer
- demands on the system are being made) might work.
-
- Another candidate is to talk to whoever is supporting SAS at your
- installation and see if there is different default space allocations given
- to WORK under version 6.06 than is given under 6.07. You might ferret out
- this information from the JCL log.
-
- Hope this helps a little.
