I believe you can still order CBIPO, but z/OSMF does (unfortunately) seem to be the way IBM wants everyone to go. I personally disagree with z/OSMF for many reasons (most of them due to overhead and capability restrictions), but mine seems to be a waste of breath. :) Any way ZOWE is open

Well, your WCLIC is showing a PIC-4. Wrong key. As to which to choose, it depends on your environment. SCHEDXIT allows XM but SCHEDIRB does not. Also, SCHEDXIT allows reuse of the IRB/IQE but SCHEDIRB reallocates it each time. On Tue, 19 Sep 2023 12:53:33 -0400 Joseph Reichman wrote: :>Hi
