Ah, gotcha.  Yes you are right.   In our case, we have JCL coming from multiple 
places, including submits from within CICS.   Not even sure we could track down 
all the source JCL easily.   That's why for us converting the datasets in place 
is the only option.

If the procs/jobs etc were to include the joblibs/steplibs  via the JCL INCLUDE 
statement, instead of explicit coding, there would be only 1 item to change 
(per application silo), the included member containing the joblib/steplib 
concatenation.


'Sorry for the confusion.

Not sure what your question is.   Converting the libraries in place won't 
affect JCL includes.

JCL includes?

For us there will be no Step1 or Step2.   We will Convert existing loadlibs 
from PDS to PDSE.   There is way too much application JCL to change to think 
about changing the concatenation.
