Radoslaw, What should have been asked is Why. Unless you are writing a performance monitor (again why) there is no likely reason as to why they need to know. There are a lot of people that think they need to know this type of info, especially application types who think they should programically be able to do better than Z/os does.
It should be strongly discouraged as control blocks change and then the program becomes dependent on the then current level of the OS. It be ones a nightmare that will come back to haunt everyone and for no good reasons.
