Sir, For TCBNOIRB, I'd suggest scanning thru an old APAR (OA19796) and perhaps following on to some of the other related APAR's (please keep in mind, 'IRB').
For TCBFX, I'd suggest, OA16342 and related (please keep in mind, 'asynchronous'). >From the little I've used these flags, it's more a question of whom the 'setter/reset r' is and obviously, what is being done.

As far as I know they both are supposed to prevent the queuing of IRBs. In the IKJTCB macro they each are doc'd as follows: > TCBNOIRB EQU X'40' - If on, IRBs will not be queued to this TCB. @08A > * A program setting this flag MUST save its > * current value and restore that value either > * when that program can tolerate IRBs being > * queued or before the current RB terminates. > TCBFX EQU X'01' - PROHIBIT QUEUEING OF ASYNCHRONOUS EXITS FOR > * THIS TASK So why do they both exist?
