There are some caveats to using ASSBSTKN as it is not a GUPI - please see the
archives for why.
This is one of the more stranger aspects of z/OS that something that is so
mind-bogglingly useful and fundamental is not intended for customer use - but
as Jim and Peter pointed out there *are* reasons for that.
Without using ASSBSTKN, a unique address space could be identified :
hardware_nodename.sysplex.system.jobname.asid.ASCBINTS
"jobname.asid" could of course just be "asid" but having the jobname makes
things a bit easier to see.

Thanks John and Ed. I see ASSBSTKN is what I want per a search through the
archives. Thanks!
