Elardus,

Setting BLP to YES or NO on a JES2 JOBCLASS statement merely determines
whether you can or cannot use BLP in jobs submitted via that particular
class. Many installations reserve one or two JOBCLASSes for BLP use and some
limit who can use these classes via exits.

Note: If you have DITTO or File Manager and it is running APF-authorized,
and you have READ access to FACILITY class resource DITTO.TAPE.BLP or
FILEM.TAPE.BLP respectively, you can submit BLP jobs using these utilities
in any JOBCLASS. It overrides JOBCLASS BLP=NO.

The authorization check for FACILITY class resource ICHBLP is made in
addition to JES, DITTO, or FILEM allowing using of BLP.

Regards, Bob

FACILITY class, then RACF is not guarding the use of BLP and anyone
can use BLP with RMM.

What about this JES2 init statement with above combination(s)?

             JOBCLASS(?),BLP=YES    (or NO)

What will happens when BLP is YES or when it is NO?

Just curious, because I can't test it for a while.
