ISPD015 abend when doing a LIBDEF

We're getting an intermittent ISPD015 error when ChangeMan is issuing a LIBDEF command. The ISPF messages manual doesn't give you much to go on other than "Dd dymans exhausted" which suggests that some sort of limit has been exceeded.

Is there a limit to how many LIBDEF's you can do? If so, can this be amended?

Many thanks.

not on the number of LIBDEFs themselves , but on the number of dynamically allocated ddnames

using all the allowed dynamic allocations is usually a symptom of malfunctions or badly coded/designed applications

-- usually forgetting to free an allocation or to cleanup after an error
