And was discussed in the IBM MAIN Archives, a couple of years ago I think. However, we use it with no ill effect. UPDATE Indicates that the system is to update an address space so that a specified job or jobs associated with that space can use the current LNKLST set. If the job is using another LNKLST set when the current LNKLST set is activated, it will continue to use the original LNKLST set until it completes operations. When the job completes and restarts, it then uses the data sets defined in the new currently active LNKLST set. See "Removing or Compressing a Data Set in an Active LNKLST Set" in z/OS MVS Initialization and Tuning Reference for information about LLA management of the LNKLST data set. Be careful when you use UPDATE. Updating an address space while a program in that address space is fetching a module can cause the fetch to fail or to locate an incorrect copy of the module. The system does not attempt to verify the validity of the data for UPDATE. Start of changeJOBNAME | JOB=jobnameEnd of change Specifies the name of the job or jobs to update. You can use wildcard characters (? or *) for jobname. UPDATE updates any job whose name matches the specified criteria. The system compares jobname to the name of any initiated job or jobs that match, or to the name of the address space. Dangle your foot in the fire.
