But I agree that it should be done to help recover from a problem like this or prevent it entirely by using JCLLIB. RACF (or other) should be used to protect JES2 defined proclibs (either dynamic or JCL defined) by only allowing ALTER authority to a select few who understand that JES2 proclibs aren't ENQed. If shop standards or politics won't allow that, then I have seen shops define the proclibs to an arbitrary long running STC with DISP=SHR so they would get ENQed.
