History section[edit]

The entire history section has nothing to do with the subject of the article; it discusses the SRB, a newer and unrelated control block. This material belongs in MVS. --Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz Username:Chatul (talk) 17:35, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

ECB[edit]

I was trying to find an article on ECB, Event Control Block, and found this. Is there any article related to ECB? Gah4 (talk) 23:10, 10 July 2023 (UTC) I'm not sure that separate articles are appropriate, but certainly the OS/360 and successors could usefully describe[reply]

Event Control Block (ECB)
WAIT and POST macros
ENQ, DEQ and RESERVE macros

Similarly, the MVS article could usefully discuss

Locks
Service Request Block (SRB)
Expand upon text currently in Task Control Block#History and then remove that section.
SCHEDULE macro

Finally, UNIX System Services could usefully discuss latches. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz Username:Chatul (talk) 10:59, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
