I would have been busy "Update JES2 Exits" seems to be popular in every one 😊  
JES2 was the last subsystem I inherited from departing/retiring staff.


Since we were are a University, our mainframe was connected via TCP/IP for a 
very long time, I think even pre Z/OS.  Our first method was via RS/6000 acting 
as a router.  That was good a good skill set, I've been a AIX/Solaris/Linux 
admin since the mainframe.


Thanks for the tips.
