DYNALLOC


>>-+----------+------------------------------------------------><
   '-DYNALloc-'

DYNALLOC specifies dynamic allocation, instead of the ENQ macro, to serialize the use of data sets. This allows cross-system serialization in a JES3/MVS environment.

Consider:

This serialization is of value only when the dynamic allocation/JES3 interface is not disabled.
Run time increases when you use DYNALLOC to serialize data sets (as opposed to enqueue) because overhead is involved in dynamic allocation and serialization across multiple processors.
