Execution
Any existing core image will be overwritten, as in LOAD.

In the case of an overlay program, the original program file will need to be ASSIGNed again, or the magnetic tape ONLINEd again, as appropriate. The restored core image is not entered by this command.
If the size of the program is in excess of the object program quota
(an installation parameter), then the following message will be
output:
EXECUTION OF YOUR PROGRAM MAY BE DELAYED AS
ITS CORE SIZE EXCEEDS THE PROGRAM QUOTA
