Very interesting, and I see it is still present in the JCL reference manual up to V2.3.
Well, either we are seeing unsupported behavior on a pretty massive scale in my shop or the doc needs updating. If any DFSMS IBM'ers are monitoring this list, could you please tell us whether this restriction is real or a leftover from an earlier implementation? Alternatively, if any other IBM'er reading the list would please ask a DFSMS colleague if this is a real restriction or not and post their reply here, that would be much appreciated. If the doc needs updating I would gladly submit a requesting email to the proper doc authority.
