If the new MPFLSTxx option has it disabled by default or enables the verbose messages, what purpose does the OCE_ABEND_DESCRIP=YES serve in DEVSUPxx? What if you want the original behavior? I ask, because I like it.
I also like the current behavior. Job logs come and go, but the system log is forever.
ESP for z/OS 1.13 began in late spring 2011. Some of the participants probably overreacted. People don't like change.
The release went GA in September 2011. Many shops have already migrated and many more are doing so. There was no 'blood in the streets'. I can't recall hearing or reading any negative mention of this new functionality until Kevin's post.
