There is a known problem with MPE/iX C.50.00 that a backreferenced purge
in a JOB fails to perform the purge.  This may cause the job stream to
terminate but not always.  See sr's 4701-278416, 5003-244749, 5003-255703.
 
Thus  File x=abc;save                File x=xyz
      purge *x                       purge *x
 
Does not "erase" the file abc.       Does not purge the file xyz.
Ths is only in a JOB, online works OK!
 
There is a patch available to fix the problem.  MPEHX50 is/was site-specific
and MPEHX55 is/was a multi-problem patch that should also fix it.  Contact
the response center for the latest info and the Patch.
