You'll get a JCL error if you try. Most other things will work. The program itself could later request a JES JOBID via an SSI call, and then dynamically allocate SYSOUT datasets. At one time, such an STC had to have all of its datasets catalogued in the master catalog, but I think that is no longer true.
<SNIP> NEVER was the case (cataloged to MASTER) as long as you did volume specific allocation. And SUB=MSTR is done by some automated operations products for the base controller and then a second copy is started under JES2/3 to do the lion's share of the operations control. << This was in answer to a different question about how/why this might be done Regards, Steve Thompson -- All opinions expressed by me are my own and may not necessarily reflect those of my employer. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
