Recently came across this too. In CBT841 files:
"CONTACT PETER RELSON, [email protected] FOR YOUR OWN OFFSET IN THE
CUSTOMER ANCHOR TABLE. ONCE YOU HAVE RECEIVED YOUR ASSIGNED VALUE
MODIFY.."
Also, in the same CBT:
"A possible address off the Customer Anchor Table, X'CC' off the ECVT,
could be X'228' (assigned to a particular customer by IBM, but this
is an example address).
This is just an example. For your site, you have to ask IBM to
assign this address for your site, and they are obligated to do so,
for a CUSTOMER. Besides the fullwords that are assigned for VENDORS,
there are also four fullwords that are assignable to customers, if
they need a permanent address in the system to anchor some function.
At the time of this writing, Peter Relson of IBM is in charge of
assigning these addresses to either vendors or customers.
You are obligated to make sure that no program or product at your
site is already using this address. "

All:
I have a question about something called
'customer anchor table entry' . My colleague said IBM can provide this
entry to a ISV like use so we can place an address there for routines. I
think it's like a vector address .
Has anyone heard of this ?
