From that point of view: there are many parameters that work only in certain situations: cold/warm/hot start. There even are parameters available in JES2PARM, , like TGSPACE, that will only work on an online command and a Cold start, although one might conclude from JES2PARM that it works on other starts. Apparently QAFF works for online commands only and therefor is not applicable to JES2PARM statements.

I think that I was not clear in my initial post. I am *not * looking for ways to implement QAFF settings. My question is more on the philosophical side: Why did IBM choose to omit QAFF from the JOBCLASS initialization parameter?
