Hello !

I got a small problem when trying to link a program. I got a command procedure
which compile and link several programs. The problem does only occure on a
particular program and when I run the procedure in batch. But it does not
occure everytime I run the procedure in batch. This is the message from
the log-file:

%LINK-W-OPENOUT, error opening DISK2:TIPP.EXE; as output
-RMS-F-FUL, device full (insufficient space for allocation)

In the manual "System Messages and Recovery Procedures" it says:
"Take corrective action based on the associated message.", which must be
the RMS messages. The RMS messages says:

User Action: Delete or purge as many files as possible to provide usable
space on the volume, ....

But there were over 47.000 blocks free disk space, and I got over 15.000
blocks left of my own disk quota.
If I try to do the linking again, without purging and deleteing,
everything work fine. The program take *only* 170 blocks on the disk.

Is there somebody out there who knows WHY ?????????
