A non-quiescing key setting facility is provided that enables manipulation of storage keys to be performed without quiescing operations of other processors of a multiprocessor system. With this facility, a storage key, which is accessible by a plurality of processors of the multiprocessor system, is updated absent a quiesce of operations of the plurality of processors. Since the storage key is updated absent quiescing of other operations, the storage key may be observed by a processor as having one value at the start of an operation performed by the processor and a second value at the end of the operation. A mechanism is provided to enable the operation to continue, avoiding a fatal exception.
