On the contrary.  The confusion stems from NOT thinking of a WLM-managed
SPAS as a SPAS.

There is one and only one address space called WLM.

There used to be one address space called xxxxSPAS.  Now there can be
multiple application environments, each of which is associated with a
set of WLM-managed Stored Procedure Address Spaces given a common name.

Ask yourself where you might find the STEPLIB DD which points to your
library of stored procedures.  It is not in the WLM address space.  It
used to be in xxxxSPAS.  Now it is in a proc which is started when WLM
needs to create a SPAS.

I hope that clears it up (but somehow I doubt it ;-))

The SPAS address space is history, so any confusion stems from using
SPAS as a word in talking about WLM managed address spaces.

You can have many WLM address spaces started based on demand. IBM
recommended people shift their stored procedures a couple of versions
ago.
Luckily, I didn't haven't worry about this, we went from zero UDFs to
having several running in WLM managed address spaces.

If you don't have any stored procedures and only UDFs, it can hardly be
referred to as a SPAS anything, surely?

I'm sure the OP is now suitably confused....Sorry...
