PMA Enqueue Usage:

  Enqueue Level    : SYSTEMS
  Major Name (QNAM): $APC0805
  Minor Name (RNAM): Processed Data Set Name

When PMA is installed in a sysplex, the PMA clusters are shared across all PMA
servers and PMA batch jobs that are running in the sysplex. To prevent the
clusters from being corrupted because multiple users are updating it
concurrently, systems-level enqueues with a QNAM $APC0805 are used.

Depending on the different possibilities of the ENQUEUE tool that is used, you
have to make sure that the PMA QNAM $APC0805 is defined for the usage of global
enqueuing. This means that if you follow an RNL INCLUDE policy, QNAM $APC0805
must be included in the RNL definition list. If you follow a RNL EXCLUDE policy,
QNAM $APC0805 need not be on the exclude list.
