After reading this thread to its current completion, I am siding with "Change 
Label In Place" regardless of its original meaning. This is in keeping with the 
tradition of IBM acronyms having multiple meanings or two things having the 
same meaning. :-)

SMS is an example of an acronym (System Managed Storage and Storage Managed 
Subsystem)
Expanded and/or Extended Storage is an example of the latter

Feel free to contribute to this list...or delete this email and get back to 
work (probably a better idea!) <grin>

Subject: Re: CLIP?

  I don't see that term in the IEHDASDR documentation found here:

www.bitsavers.org/pdf/ibm/360/.../GC28-6586-15_OS_Utilities_Rel_21.7_Apr73.pdf 


  I would guess Change Label In Place

Found an old proc on one of our systems:
