Roland, While the SRB to MASTER approach may be taken by a number of IBM products (DB2 and RACF come to mind), for a vendor product, I would have to agree with Rob and Shane, do it the right way, if only to save yourself having to deal with calls from IBM if there is an abend in the MASTER address space, and your code is in there.

Not a big issue so far but I don't want to start/write a STC just to hold the CADS so I schedule a SRB to *MASTER* and create the CADS undercover for this ASID. This works also and I also provide a utility to delete this dataspace. Someone ask me if this is allowed and I wonder I found nothing which tells me a clear YES or NO. What did you think?
