No. The environment variable array is created by process initialization. The
shell and programs can modify the array. I believe sub-shells in the same
process use the same array.

Joseph, yes you need to wait/post because an async IRB only serializes on 1 TCB
(TCB with the IRB). If you do use WAIT, then you should implement recovery in
the IRB. While

I only know the basics about IRB because none of the products I've worked on
use it. Is async for the address space or for the TCB? In other words, does the
SCHEDIRB wait

Sorry for chiming in so late but I've had other priorities. I think you're
being led down the wrong path. A 30 second glance at your code shows obvious
coding errors. SRB and IRB are the the real danger. Running

I think INFOPRINT has this capability. Another possibility is to use Unix LPR

Does JCL now support DD JESJCLIN and other JES datasets? It's been a long time

A Unix package name combined with the version is an SMP/e FMID. Just like Unix,
a z/OS will have 1 or more FMID. Like Unix, installing 1 of the FMIDs will

some reason. More likely it was something to do with an app that needed to move
data starting a new month. Maybe it was being over cautious but it's ridiculous
to say this was about z/OS being down.

Linux (nor Unix) does NOT have any maint systems. P in RPM stands for Package

I'm guessing that IBM is still on a 2 year release cycle and they still have a
custom-built offering so you're not dealing with a lot of tapes and
