I am trying to use the RSLVSP MI instruction to check object existence from a procedure at run time. If the object exists everything is fine. If the object doesn't exist I get a MCH error. If I understand the documentation correctly I can set a value in the extended template under the options section to not return the MCH error and just return a null pointer instead.

Rick, the Do-not-signal-not-found bit is the second bit in the Options, b'0100 0000', but you've set the second-last bit, b'0000 0010'. Try x'40'.

You have the ReqAuth initialization correct; the use-extended bit is bit(15).

It's always confusing to talk about bit numbers, because they could mean either left-to-right or right-to-left. The MI documentation describes them in storage terms, left-to-right, with bit(0) being the high-order bit.
