Subject: Re: Can a person deq SYSZJES2 SDB.address?

Is your STC APF authorized? I would assume so. If it is, then you can have the 
code check the life of job SSIB to see if it was started under JES2. If it was 
started under JES2, then you simply use MGCRE to issue the correct operator 
command:

START STC,SUB=MSTR

and then terminate normally.

and
http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/IEA2A3A0/11.0

Example code (untested and likely not totally correct):

        IAZXJSAB READ,
                COMPID=COMPID
        LTR     15,15   
        JZ      CONTINUE                THERE IS A JSAB UNDER JES, SO WE AREN'T
        CLC     COMPID,=CL4'MSTR'
        JE      CONTINUE
        MGCRE   TEXT=STARTME,
                MF=(E,LFORM)
...
LFORM   MGCRE   MF=L
STARTME DC      AL2(CMDLEN)
STARTCMD DC     C'S STC,SUB=MSTR'
CMDLEN  EQU *-STARTCMD
