Open-source Languages & Tools for z/OS

Hello,
I installed R V3.3.2 on z/OS V2.1

stderr on USS(teraterm)

    > R
    [1] + Done(137) R
    50332419     Killed /u/XXX/YYY/R332/bin/R

syslog messages

BPXP018I THREAD 562D460000000001, IN PROCESS 50332419, ENDED 203
WITHOUT BEING UNDUBBED WITH COMPLETION CODE 04000FFD
, AND REASON CODE 00000224.

I tried “R --verbose” command, but it failed with same error without additional information.

BPXP018I
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ja/SSLTBW_2.1.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r1.ieam300/dp0817s.htm

According to the description, it seems that the above completion code indicates user completion code.

I set the following environment to the shell on which I invoked “R” command.

# for python-devel
export _BPXK_AUTOCVT=ON
export BD=/u/XXX/YYY/python
export PATH=$BD/bin:$PATH
export LIBPATH=$BD/lib:$LIBPATH
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$BD/lib/pkgconfig:$BD/share/pkgconfig
export CURL_CA_BUNDLE=$BD/etc/ssl/cacert.pem
export FFI_LIB=$BD/lib/ffi
export X11_DIST=$BD
export DEVEL_DIST=$BD

# for R332
export BASE=/u/XXX/YYY/R332
export PATH=$BASE/bin:$PATH
export LIBPATH=$BASE/lib:$LIBPATH
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$BASE/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
export TZDIR=$BASE/lib/R/share/zoneinfo
export RHOME=$BASE/lib/R
export R_DIST=$BASE

Could you please advise me how to solve this issue?

With best regards.

Sorry,
I missed to paste one sentence.

I installed R V3.3.2 on z/OS V2.1.
After istallation, I tried to invoke “R” command but it failed with the following messages.

stderr on USS (teraterm)

   50332419     Killed /u/XXX/YYY/R332/bin/R

Hello,
It looks like this issue will be easy to solve.

I looked up abend U4093 reason 224, and I found this:
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSLTBW_2.3.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r3.ceea900/cs00020.htm
X’224’ (548)
The 64-bit virtual limit (MEMLIMIT) was 0. This setting prevents the initialization and execution of an AMODE 64 application under Language Environment since storage above 2GB cannot be allocated. SMFPRMxx parameter MEMLIMIT, JCL JOB statement keyword MEMLIMIT, and JCL EXEC statement MEMLIMIT keyword are some of the mechanisms for setting the amount of 64-bit virtual storage that can be allocated in the address space. See z/OS MVS Programming: Extended Addressability Guide for more information on setting MEMLIMIT and how the system determines what value to use.

Best regards,
Rick Harris

Thank you so much for your comment.
I will try again after changing MEMLIMIT parameter.

Thaks!
