IBM couldn't due that, because they used the same sigil for symbolic parameters

IBM demurred for years allowing system symbols to be used in batch JCL. There
were several spirited discussions at SHARE as to how they should work. Some
possibilities:
-- Substitute values at submit time
-- Substitute values at conversion time
-- Substitute values at execution time
These
This is a nice illustration of some general rule that probably deserves a
psychological study.
First, there was JCL.
Then, SYSIN data, which (naturally) was terminated by the next JCL card
(which always start with //).
Then, some wanted a way to put JCL in SYSIN data. So, DD DATA was invented.
I am guessing it is due to where the job gets converted. If the symbol
being used is different on different LPARs in a PEX, then you could get
different results.

I think System Symbols are only available when the JES2 Class says

Otherwise I think they are not available to a batch job.
They are probably available to an STC

If you write to the INTRDR with an ACB/RPL and then do an ENDREQ on the

submitted, as I believe the ENDREQ is like an /*EOF and would cut the

Gil,
How about using system symbols and ? Something like
this?
//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=(*,INTRDR)
//SYSINDD *

Refer to "Assembler Services Guide" "Obtaining a job identifier".

The job identifier is returned in the RPLRBAR field of the request parameter

At what point in processing is the submitted JobID available?:

The max possible velocity is (theoretically) 100. I.E. there are zero delays in
the sample.
The only thing I have ever seen that realistically exceeded 50 was a CICS
address space running in server mode (as opposed to transaction mode).
Check your RMF III reports
You can acquire TASID here:

There is a ZAP for it in CBT 981 to fix the initiator display on z/os 2.2

SDSF for z/OS 2.4 has the "ENQD" command
Example : ENQD SYS1.PARMLIB
There is also the "PARM" and "PROC" displays to show the logical PARMLIB
datasets and the JES2 PROCLIBs
Note that you can use the "SRCH" command to search for a member name pattern
within these displays.

Since you mentioned Adabas, I believe throwing some zIIP at it (& licensing
this feature from Adabas's vendor) will help reduce CP usage.
In addition to WLM, I would also look at LPAR Design Tool to check out VH/M/L
spread (tuning the weights and engines per LPAR).
Could be wrong... but I think

Certainly the general point of considering what you’re achieving in
