I just had occasion to look at the code that processes the job class
override.

It moves just the first byte of the override field in the parameter list
into a one byte class field in the relevent JES2 control block.  (I don't
have it in front of me right now, but probably a JCT field.)  So just set
your override in the first byte.  I'm guessing IBM is positioning for eight
byte job class names in the future.

Regards, Bill

I think that 8 byte field is a JES3 artifice (where the class can be up to 8 bytes long). If I remember correctly the new control block in 1.7 is shared between JES2 and JES3 support so the field must be that long.
