Susan,
I think it is impossible:
A quick scan through data areas revealed several controlblocks that had 7
positions for the userid.
See:
Title: z/OS V1R3.0 TSO/E System Diagnosis: Data Areas
Document Number: GA22-7792-01
This limitation must be documented in TSO manuals.
Just to complete:
It is impossible to have 8-char userid under TSO.
It is possible to have 8-char userid for CICS, console, etc. Such user
cannot logon to TSO and cannot be altered to logon - sometimes people
like it.
Because of TSO restriction many shops don't use userid longer than 7.
