No, but that's a common misconception (or, perhaps, a common mis-statement).

The correct statement is: anything in LPA is considered to reside in an 
authorized library.

What that means is:
1. It can be loaded by something that is running either unauthorized or 
authorized (APF, system key, or supervisor state). When loaded, the state of 
the running program's authorization is not changed. (I will ignore the further 
complications that can be imposed by RACF Program Control, as those are not 
really related to authorized vs unauthorized.)

2. If it is loaded by the Initiator as a jobstep program, and it is linked 
AC(1), it will run APF-authorized. (I will ignore possible JOBLIB/STEPLIB 
effects.)

3. If it is run under TSO and is in the appropriate IKJTSOxx list (AUTHPGM, 
AUTHCMD, AUTHTSF) for the way it was run, it will run APF-authorized. (Again, 
ignoring possible JOBLIB/STEPLIB effects.)

But it is only truly "authorized" if it is loaded by an already-authorized 
program in case 1, or when cases 2 or 3 apply.

from a purely TSS standpoint, Setup omvs sectrace for TSS.  It will provide
a lot of output.  Combine with SECTRACE for mvs side of things.

Or the regular omvs security report and audit everything.  Also a lot of
output but should show most things.

The other thing would be to rachet up debugging / logging on the Jenkins
client in omvs.

Ah. Well, yeah. But since light bulb presumably LOOKED OK to the eye, not

FWIW the PC editor I use most is TSPF; I'll give it up when I have a clone of

The V1R1 is about to be released into the wild - a release candidate is
current available for the brave. This update addresses many of the issues in
the original v1r0 release.

Why use ISPF to interface to git:

1.  Many developers are very comfortable and thus very productive using
ISPF tools.
2.  There have been many extensions to ISPF edit, in house developed,
cbttape, and vendor, that extend ISPF Edit significantly to improve
productivity.
3.  The younger developers, who may already know about git, will find it
familiar while remaining on the mainframe
4.  The more seasoned developers will  not have to spend time learning a
new development interface and can continue to produce

Thanks Lionel.   I'll take a peek at it, but our current direction is to 
piggyback on similar pipeline functionality our installation is already using 
for all the other platforms as much as possible.   Your solution appears to be 
a very nice implementation, from what I have read, but doesn't address the 
needed processes to promote code, packages, etc from development stage through 
to Production.

currently very productive using ISPF to interface to git.  Check out

current available for the brave. This update addresses many of the issues in

Hi

I was trying to define control Unit 7001 for dasd and while connecting to
CHPID 0C it threw a message saying it is already connected to another
control unit 7000.

I have defined CHP 0C as shared

Is there anything I am missing here ?

Re: Around ASSBASST and ASSBPHTM time fields

My CMG95 paper on these fields should help.  I don't recall if that
paper covered enclave tasks as well, but from the standpoint of the
fields under discussion they work exactly like enclave SRBs.

As Peter's answer noted, you do need to read the field's comments: in
particular, "preemptible class" work is a superset of "preemptible"
SRBs. Basically in 5.2 I needed to come up with a new term (preemptible
class was the least bad at the time) to cover enclave SRBs, client SRBs,
and "simple preemptible" SRBs (those with home=owner, which at the time
we had no exploiters for).  I also used "work" rather than "SRBs"
because we knew we were adding enclave tasks next for DB2's use in
stored procedures.

A more accurate formulation is: Because PHTM is for all types
of preemptible class work not running with the subject address space as
home whose CPU time is not already accounted for by ASCBEJST.

I don't need to talk about local or global SRBs in that formulation,
because they're not "preemptible class" work.

Preemptible class work is regularly interrupted to see if something else
should be dispatched (higher absolute priority, or same priority when
the dispatcher is rotating within a priority).  The CPU time is
accounted for then.  Local and global (aka non-preemptible) SRBs are the
ones with "lumpy" time accounting of the sort you described.

Bumping up one level of abstraction, this is the rule for the then-new
ASSB fields:
1. PHTM + EJST + SRBT = all CPU time consumed by all work units with
that address space = home
2. EJST + SRBT + ASST = all CPU time consumed _on behalf of_ that
address space, regardless of the work units' home address space.

One of the weirder consequences of enclaves' status as "memory-less
peers" to address spaces is that their CPU time contributes to 1 but not
to 2 (the enclave equivalent to 2 is enclave CPU time).
