Please reread my comment. You have seen TCBTIO e different, but that's
not the issue. The issue is whether you have ever seen a situation
where the code needed a TIOT other than the one pointed to by the TCB
it is running under.

What use to you is the JCL built TIOT if your running under a TCB that
doesn't point to it?

Please reread my message; you're answering a question that I never
asked instead of the one that I did ask.

Perhaps we don't mean the same thing by normal. What percentage of
cases has to exhibit a pathology before you consider it normal?

Why? What would you do with the TIOT for a task that you're not
running under?
>But I have seen that as well as TCBs with TCBTIO = 0.
You shouldn't be doing DYNALLOC under those.
>Personally I use PSATOLD -> TCBJSTCB -> TCBTIO.
That's the right way to do the wrong thing. If you're looking for
allocations visible to the current task, then you need PSATOLD ->
TCBTIO.
