Now that the OP has clarified his requirement, my initial thought was that
the PROC could be changed to simply re-submit a new job via INTRDR. This
would direct the job to the required job class.
PROCA - do what you do now
PROCB - INTRDR submit to run in different class.

Z80 was a processor. How could it possibly crop up in a discussion about
what constitutes a mainframe?
The Altos 8000 was Z80 based as was the North Star Horizon and the Cromemco
System 3. I worked with these in the 70's to *escape* from the mainframe,
the demise of which was imminent. LOL.

Dijkstra wrote his missive around 1968. Knuth made a meal of it and after
reading his paper which was published 5 years later, it was too hard a read.
Around the same time Michael Jackson was distilling this information and
produced his structured programming book "Principles of Program Design". I
Some wag published this in an internal IBM publication back in 1978, with
full examples. It sucked us in at the time.

IBM are supporting university training in Mainframe in a hands-off manner.
A friend of mine has just run a COBOL course at a North Queensland
university. The mainframe used for classes was the Marist system.
The customers were a large Australian Bank and a territory government

I wonder what EXEC CICS SPOOLREAD brings back? We don't have z/OS 2.4, so
can't test against that.

The IBM Redbook for RACF RRSF has most of the information needed to
configure AT-TLS.
We're in the process of rolling out RRSF for RACF password sync. It's
working between two of our plexes, I followed the book, used SYS1.SAMPLIB
examples rather than attempting via zOSMF.

COBOL fails at MOVE. It's a COPY. Maybe they should have said REPLICATE,
since COPY was already taken. So, not good English.

I referred to this since someone said that COBOL is English like. As such
the language is wrong because it does not describe correctly in English
what happens. COPY, RE

Current international agreement for all new elements is to end them with

There's a logical reason for this. The

My physics teachers said don't say >100 centigrade. It's outside the
