Jim Mulder is perfectly correct. We will never provide such a function.
There are assumptions made within the system based on things it knows about how steplib and joblib are created. If the CBT tape program does not happen to meet all of those assumptions, I have no idea what will happen. Nor do I particularly care, because it is clearly not supported to muck with this sort of thing, so I hope that no one would try to call IBM service if something went noticeably wrong. Simply doing new allocations from the jobstep program and changing TCBJLB for that task is likely not sufficient. So maybe that's not what the CBT tape program does.
