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.
Ed,
Miklos asked the question, and I answered. End of story.
The answer was not useful, just because the question was not detailed
enough, but there is still no reason to ask why.
Now you know the details, I'd suggest to answer the question, to help
Miklos, not ask why.
However, in general, I agree there are situations where "what's your
goal" is good question, because it WILL HELP the asking person.
Example (not the best): what exit to use (or how to code the exit) to
protect jobnames. Proper answer IMHO: just try to use JESJOBS.
Sometimes one asks quite weird question, just because he "THINKS" he
knows a solution for real (business) need. ANd we cannot answer the
question (satisfactory), but we could suggest the solution, possibly
quite easy and effective solution if we had knew the real need.
Regards
