Charles,
Correct it is VENDOR.PROCLIB. USER.PROCLIB was on our old ADCD back in the
old FLEX days.
We implemented some automation on Dallas to clean up spool (OTTO from the
CBTTAPE). We also paid for a lot of additional disk space so we could
extend JES spool.

Here is my entry in IEFJOBS:
//BPXASJOB (SYSTEMS),'USS ADDRESS',MSGCLASS=Z
//BPXASEXEC PROC=BPXAS,GETWORK=BPXPRJSR
So, yes, IEFJOBS does work.

I'm not sure how important your system is, but the example you send indicates
that the bpxas is running on behalf a ssh session. If most of the bpxas address
spaces are running for ssh, you might want to investigate why you suddenly see
an increase of ssh sessions coming into your system.

Incredibly busy this AM but wanted to at least say that I used @sas's "real

comment on some later posts if I get a moment.

Does this help:
Charles, imo Seymour was on the right track.
Could it have been that someone issued a $T JOBCLASS command? (Or maybe from
SDSF.)
We usually run with STC and TSU OUTDISP=(PURGE,PURGE), and the SYSOUTs
disappear at end of task. But sometimes I want to see the output so I issue $T

No, no, no! No customization; it should *just*work*!
I've used the Dallas systems. You are free to customize. IBM provide
USER.PROCLIB etc. It allows you to add your custom routines which can allow
such things as MSGCLASS=Z et al.

I experimented with this and learned that you are correct. However, I

The first was:

If you wish to specify a job card for a started task, you need IEFJOBs.
Simple as that.

Had you been taking all IBM's defaults: SYSOUT class, disposition of that

If so, IBM's design is adverse.
But, "IBM's defaults are not IBM's

Thanks much.

BPXAS is the jobstep task when a Unix application spawns a process that runs in
a separate address space. It is an initiator for Unix workloads and over the
course of its lifetime may run processes spawned by multiple users. I couln't
find any documentation of the generated JCK beyond the BPXAS
Those are OMVS "initiators", and as far as I can tell, there is no way to
control them. OMVS starts as many as needed to run processes (at which
point they temporarily change their name - which is why you don't see all
of them in DA). Once they're idle for 30 minutes or so, they quit;
