Yes - it would be a bit silly if it did not. From my interpretation of the parameters, z/OS is trying to make it more likely that you can start an STC (or mount something) when you are short of ASVT slots in the hope that this might keep the system up longer. Rob Scott Rocket Software

I think that it is still true that a JES2 logical initiator is not bound to a specific initiator started task (ASID). So, a CICS initiator (ASID) could have had some batch jobs run in it before running the CICS job. Initiators are now bound and have been since at least 2.10, if not earlier.
