>(job step program name will always be DFHSIP for CICS). Not sure about that - I remember hearing that some sites have got front-end programs for CICS - maybe supplied by ISVs - am not sure.
I do remember that the person you told me that I could not assume DFHSIP as the jobstep program knew a hell of a lot more about CICS that I did at the time (and still does).

By identifying, I mean programmatically. As an example of what I'm talking about, to locate DB2 address spaces, a search of the SSCT chain is done to find an SSCT with a pointer to a DB2 ERLY block. Once that is found, the DB2 system name is known, and the address spaces that make up that instance of DB2 can be located. Is the technique for CICS similar? I would appreciate any help one can provide on this.
