Again an anecdote from an unnamed tiny MVS shop; one of the 3 sysprogs
would modify one of the commonly used logon procs during lunch hour when
'almost' all the users were out. Just before saving it and testing it
he'd stand on his chair and yell to the other 2: DON'T LOG OFF, DON'T
LOG OFF!

We always had a separate recovery system to IPL which did not depend on any
normal volume or dataset. We could, and occasionally did, recover from IPL
failures, usually self-induced, related to the master catalog, spool, page
datasets, critical STCs, PARMLIB, PROCLIB, RACF permissions, etc. We rolled
our own but at least one contributor here has publicized a one-pack system that
can be used by most any site for this purpose

Yeah, but what about breaking the VTAM and worse yet the JES2 procs?

We keep a TSO rescue proc with '911' in the name. It lives in SYS1.PROCLIB away
from
the standard location for TSO procs
We do something similar, but often it's easier to FTP the broken logon proc to
a PC, edit it,
and FTP it back to the host.
