Can we consider a subsystem as a job? Can we associate this job to a named

shared to all the (interactive / batch) jobs that are launched in that
subsystem?

Charles:

I'm not sure that you _really_ want ODPs shared across multiple jobs. Try to picture the result if different, unrelated jobs were always changing the file pointer to different parts of the file! What record would be read the next time any job executed a simple READ op-code? Similarly, file status info, at least some storage areas and possibly other elements, would also be shared and could potentially cause chaos.

IIUC, native I/O within a job can be influenced by the OVRDBF SHARE(*YES) setting; but SQL does any sharing through its own methods and SHARE(*YES) is ignored. Either way, going _across_ jobs would be begging for trouble.
