The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Mark:
Unfortunately, it involves a *USRSPC object rather than a *PGM
object. For my intended usage, there is no [apparent] choice but a *PGM.
A very specific example problem involves the pre-restore exit point
for RSTLICPGM. The _only_ object type that can be restored during
that operation is a *PGM object. No data files, no message files...
no user spaces...
The very nice thing about the associated space is that it can be
modified even after a LPP is installed. A customer who wants to add
some specific customizations can be presented with options that
alter values stored in an associated space. A subsequent SAVLICPGM
can then save those customizations for distribution to other systems
in their network. There's enough available space even to track who
made which changes, when they were made, etc., not to mention
encryption and just about whatever is needed in such a limited context.
When those options involve pre-restore environment elements, the
only available object type is *PGM. And OPM *PGMs seem to be the
ones that have this capability.
