Checkpoint/restart is supported for the local shared resources (LSR) feature, including use with Hiperspace™^™ buffers, but repositioning is not allowed. Also, checkpoint is not allowed and cannot be taken when the global shared resources feature is used.

For automatic checkpoint/restart, deleting a data set open at the time the checkpoint was taken or deallocating a SYSOUT data set to the job entry subsystem makes the step ineligible for restart until the next checkpoint is taken.
