I started setting it in MVS/ESA V3, which is still a very very long time ago. Since then we've had a couple of MVS/ESA V4 and MVS/ESA V5 versions, 10 OS/390 releases and 11 (now 12) z/OS releases. So I hope there isn't any ISV software around that depends on SWA=BELOW. When I made the "big leap" sometime during MVS/ESA, I left one JOBCLASS with SWA=BELOW for anything that may have required it (now JOBCLASS can be changed on the fly anyway). There could be some home grown program that has a problem, but after you make the change, it is easy enough to backout via operator command if you run into a problem. If it is something you can't fix or don't want to, then leave 1 jobclass with SWA=BELOW.
