You and J R both hint at an interesting question. If I have:
//STEP1
//SYSUT2 DD DISP=NEW,DSN=OLD.NAME
//STEP2 EXEC PGM=IDCAML
ALTER OLD.NAME NEW.NAME
//STEP3
//SYSUT2 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=NEW.NAME
... Will the ENQ be SHR in STEP3, or will IDCAMS upgrade the SHR
ENQ issued by the initiator to EXC in order to perform the rename?
My only direct experience is that DEFINE/DELETE ALIAS requires no
ENQ on the alias name; I nave no information on the related name.
