The AXR address space (System REXX) is started with SUB=MSTR. REXX execs that that are started via AXREXX TSO=NO, run in the AXR address space. On the other hand, REXX execs that are started via AXREXX TSO=YES run in a AXRnn address space which is started under the primary subsystem.
If you're starting a REXX exec from an MVS Console and want to ensure that the exec runs in the AXR address space (SUB=MSTR), issue the exec using the TSO=NO option i.e. MODIFY AXR,<myexec>,TSO=NO Harris Morgenstern z/OS Storage Management and System REXX Dept.
