Yes, you can. And it doesn't break anything. In CICS there is a utility
transaction, ADYN, that can be used to allocate/deallocate datasets. It calls
SVC 99 "under the covers". I've used it on many occasions to free allocations
in a CICS region that had been made via DD statements in the regio

Makes sense. Is it documented? Most probably in the description of
SVC 99, since it applies alike to all programs, foreground and batch.

Why? I never did a DYNALLOC ALLOCATE; only a FREE, and that should set
the reference count to 0.
Or does the reference count count each step mentioning the

How does that work if a subsequent job step contains a DD stateme

Why? What are you trying to solve? Or, rather, what are you trying to break?
In short - no. You stop the application [1].
