Well, I really would prefer both. CEEROPT can be used for, as you say, all batch jobs. I would like as well something that could be done at the first step in a job and have the remaining jobs pick it up. I'm pondering how that can be done without making a requirement of IBM. I'm thinking perhaps a temporary PDS can be created in step 1 and have the necessary CEEROPT written to it, and then that PDS can be used in a STEPLIB in the later steps. Not sure if it will work, but worth trying. Is this what Mark was referring to below?
