Is it safe in a production setting to delete the moved old object in QRPLOBJ? I suppose if it is actively in use, no, it'd crash. But if it is idle, say, with a CGI server job, will the job pick up the new object?

Of course, I sit here safely on basically a dedicated box!

I'm not sure, but I believe that certain jobs resolve the pointer to a

close enough.

Vern is on the right track.

But not just "certain jobs" - pretty much all jobs.

More specifically _any_ program called has its pointer resolved on first call and there is nothing that will cause that pointer to be re-resolved other than the program setting on LR (OPM or Default AG) or ending the AG (if running in a named AG). That's why ending the AG or signing off (which of course does the same thing only more so) cures the problem.
