I suspect that Michael was asking whether TQE's themselves are created by zOS or by the user or both, rather than whether STIMER was issued within a system service that a user might invoke. TQEs are created by users for DIE routines (see "Establishing a timer disabled interrupt exit" in the authorized assembler services guide). They are also created by z/OS. One way to get a hint of who does what is that IHATQE has fields that are programming interfaces but TCBTQE is not a programming interface. If a user were supposed to queue a TQE to TCBTQE, then TCBTQE would be a programming interface. That's not to say that the interface information is free from error, but it's a place to start. A scan of the z/OS MVS bookshelf for "TQE" locates the information. I suggest that a simple search is a good place to start before posting some questions unless you feel that the broader list would benefit from seeing the answer. It is particularly when you can't (reasonably easily) find information that the many learned participants (customer, ISV, and IBM) on this forum enjoy helping.
