Not sure "basically" inspires confidence and I'm not sure the statement with it is accurate. Martin Packer 17:02, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Restructure of articles about IBM mainframe operating systems

After a big edit of MVS I concluded that the whole set of articles about IBM mainframe operating systems from System/360 onwards needed to be re-structured to minimise overlap and to make clearer the evolutionary relationships between these operating systems (notably in memory management, which is historically a major distinguishing feature). There is already some support for this proposal. Please add comments at Talk: MVS. Philcha 23:56, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rewrite of Job Control Language in progress

As part of the proposed restructure of articles on IBM mainframe operating systems (above), I've rewritten Job Control Language to: cover IBM's DOS/360 and its descendants as well as OS/360 and its descendants; focus more on the facilities and flavour of the 2 JCLs rather than on details of some statement types and some of their options. Please comment in Talk: Job Control Language. I'd be particulary grateful for more info on DOS/360 and its descendants, especially after 1980 - I only used DOS JCL a handful of times, and only in the late 1970s.

The rewrite does not currently take account of Truthanado's point in Talk: Job Control Language about use of "JCL" by computer suppliers other than IBM, which may entail further restructuring of articles about JCLs. Philcha 00:31, 21 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The article has a DFP link that redirects to HSM, an unrelated component of DFSMS. Either someone should write a DFSMSdfp article or the link should be changed to text. Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz Username:Chatul (talk) 19:00, 4 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
