I really have to chuckle at the question Charles since I'll wager at some
point in time every person on this list has asked this same question. To date
I really know of no single place where APF is outlined, explained, and/or
documented other than what's in the Authorized Guide. Not the greatest but the
place to start...
It's easy to know how to get APF authorized. The trickier part is knowing
the many ways to lose it and tricks on how to get around it.

Subject: Where is APF documented?
I know what APF-authorization means for a dataset well enough to use it. I'm
writing a manual and I would like a formal definition of APF-authorization.
I search the book manager z/OS MVS shelf for APF and I get lots of hits but
the ones I looked at are either very peripheral or else they are "how to set
up your APF list in PARMLIB" or "the SETPROG APF command."
Where is a formal statement of what APF-authorization means?
