Is UCLIN processing actually involved here, or is M & C misleading me.
UCLIN is not involved... the doc for message GIM52801E is misleading. This results from reusing a message and missing the appropriate doc updates. I'll ensure a future instance of the book is corrected.
Further, when I specify qparms.csi="PREFIX.GLOBAL.CSIXYZ"; and qparms.csilen=strlen(csi); the API (apparently; a quick look at the source of GIMCSAMP shows no such logic) truncates the DSNAME to "PREFIX.GLOBAL.CSI" and successfully processes that data set.

.. no mention of truncating excess characters from the lowest-level qualifier. Is this WAD, or perhaps some leftover test code?
Quite simply I believe it is a bug. Unless you feel strongly and require an APAR, I'll see what I can do to fix it in a future release of SMP/E.
