Not sure, but don't forget about three-tiered names with named PROC steps
and jobsteps within.

Subject: Jobs, procs, STCJOBS, and the TIOT

Does anyone understand or have any comments on the following analysis? This
all revolves around the TIOCSTPN and TIOCJSTN fields in the TIOT. There seem
to be three cases, depending on how the job was invoked. For each, assume
the job is named JOBNAME and the step is STEPNAME. "blanks" means, like, all
blanks.

Run as a job:
TIOCSTPN = STEPNAME, TIOCJSTN = blanks
Run as a PROC without STCJOBS:
TIOCSTPN = JOBNAME, TIOCJSTN = blanks
Run as a PROC with STCJOBS:
TIOCSTPN = STEPNAME, TIOCJSTN = JOBNAME

So this is all well and good, but the three fields are documented in
IEFTIOT1 as:
TIOCSTPN = 8-byte step name for non-PROCs TIOCPSTN = 8-byte PROC step name
for procs TIOCJSTN = 8-byte jobstep name for PROCs

So I have two questions:

1)      Is the documentation just wrong, or am I missing something?

2)      Are there other possible cases?
