Depends on what is scheduling and to what.

For example, if a PC-SS is scheduling to the primary, there is no need to
place the SRB code in CSA.

Or if the service routine address is saved in some CSA control block.

But if some AS wishes to run some code in an arbitrary AS it will need to do
it thru CSA.

Also, unless you explicitly request that the SRB complain, it will fail
silently with neither the SCHEDULEr or the target address space being
informed.

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.

I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.
