SNC2 Support at Jobstep Termination

Set PLSOPT44 to Y bypass stop-not-catlgd2 (SNC2) processing. The processing is for JCL streams that contain two DDs that point to the same DSN, as shown here:

//STEP2  EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
//INPUT  DD  DSN=HLQ.SNC2,DISP=(OLD,DELETE)
//OUTPUT DD  DSN=HLQ.SNC2,DISP=(NEW,CATLG)

Setting PLSOPT44 to N (default N), causes the SNC2 processing to continue to invoke for this type of JCL. To determine if this PLSOPT44 option is wanted, review your ASR for its use of the &SNC2 variable.
