<snip> I've never seen nor heard of an IHADCB macro, as of z/OS 2.4. Did you mean one should just create it? <snip>
Well, that's embarrassing. Bad assumption on my part. There is such a macro, but it's apparently not shipped externally. The assembler part consists of MACRO IHADCB &DSORG=,&DEVD= DCBD DSORG=&DSORG,DEVD=&DEVD MEND , No, I wouldn't suggest there's any reason for you to create one, since you've obviously done just fine without it.
