A token, in general, is an arbitrary value that is long enough so that all tokens for the same class of resource will be unique. Whenever certain kinds of events occur, a new, unique token is created and is always associated with the resource involved with the event that just happened (a new address space is created, e.g.). An STOKEN is a token that is unique to a Space (hence the S at the beginning of STOKEN), where space means address space. There are other types of tokens in z/OS; e.g., each task in an address space has a unique TCB token, each time an I/O configuration change occurs a new I/O configuration token is created, etc. Tokens are used to identify uniquely which of a set of similar resources is to be involved with certain kinds of system services.
