A user with Class B privilege can issue SET DATEFORMAT ISODATE/etc SYSTEM to change the default date format system-wide without an IPL.As always, if you do this, you also want to add the system config file statement so the same date format is in effect the next time you IPL. SET DATEFORMAT has been in the system since VM/ESA 2.2.0 John Franciscovich z/VM Development
