PROBLEM SUMMARY:
****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: All users of HJE7730 and HJE7740 *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: This APAR implements dynamic loading, *
* refreshing, and deleting installation *
* load modules. It also implements *
* dynamic changing of the routines *
* associated with an exit. *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION: *
****************************************************************
This adds the following 2 functions to JES2:
- The ability to load, refresh, and delete installation load
modules (those not part of the IBM base JES2 code) after JES2
initialization processing. Included is support to update
dynamic table pairs and exit routine address as needed. In
addition, modules can provide load and delete routines to
perform any processing that may be needed to adjust data
pointers JES2 does not process.
Note that since this support does not support base JES2
modules, it can NOT be used to apply IBM service.
- The ability to alter the list of routines associated with an
exit point via operator command.
Additionally the following functions are provided:
- An indicator that a load module cannot be dynamically altered
(loaded, deleted, or refreshed) post initialization. This
indicator can be set via the $MODULE statement in the load
module (DYNAMIC keyword), or by setting the LMT2NDYN bit in
the load routine associated with the module.
- Since loading modules can take an extended period of time if
the data set being loaded from is unavailable due to an ENQ or
a hardware reserve, a secondary command processor has been
added to process load (and other) requests. Which command
processor handled a command is indicated by a new keyword on
the highest level $SCANTAB (COMPCE=) macro for the command.
All EXIT and LOADMOD commands are processed under the
secondary command processor.
- PCE services have been updated to support the attaching and
detaching of PCEs at any time. This allows the load and
delete routines to manage the PCEs it needs for processing. A
new keyword DYNAMIC= was added to the $PCETAB macro to
indicate a PCE is eligible for dynamic processing. The
existing DYNDETACH= keyword has been deprecated.

I've been waiting for this too! I just heard from my IBM contact that:
"The APAR will be closing 'any day now', definitely before the end of
the year."
Apparently, it was slowed down getting all of the documentation
finished.
