Re: Can a job determine its own WLM priority?
I believe all of that type of information is available via WLM macros. However, I also believe that any modification of WLM "settings" requires APF authorization. It might even be true for inquiry type activities. Check the WLM Planning Guide.

That is, can a job determine what its WLM priority is, and especially whether that changes as it runs? Clearly the real answer is "yes", so this becomes a two-part question: 1) Is there a documented interface? 2) Are there undocumented interfaces?

Re: Can a job determine its own WLM priority?
Phil, there is no "WLM priority". There is a dispatch priority, and there is a WLM importance (and goal). - Which one are you interested in? - Only for simple cases the entire "job" (address space) would be managed to the same service class period, and therefore dispatch priority. Are you definitively not interested in e.g. in enclave management? - Is the "job" authorized?
