Forgot about that one!

MPELXV2(C) for 7.0 was marked bad but it is worth being sure it's not
installed. There's a one word binary patch that can be installed to correct the
problem if any version of MPELXV2 is installed. The Response Center should
have all the details.

I should mention that just plain old MPE STREAM can also submit a job with
a malformed JOB card and result in the SA1458 Randy mentioned.

Hope this helps!
