- JCL USER EXIT - provides a means of passing control to a user written exit program at various stages in the job execution
                  when variables associated with the job can be viewed and updated.

- MVS JCL - you can submit jobs that contain either MVS JCL or VSE JCL through the same server. (MVS and VSE JCL must not be
                  mixed in the same job). The system determines the type of JCL being submitted and processes it accordingly. This provides
                  access to all the MVS utilities and MVS-only processing, for example Generation Data Groups.
