Assigning Process Handling (PH) Capability 

If you have standard MPE XL capabilities, you can use many system
intrinsics to access operating system features.  However, PH intrinsics
require that the operating system check for additional capabilities at
program load and/or execution.  To execute PH intrinsics, you must have
the correct capability assigned prior to running the program.

In order for a program containing PH intrinsics to execute successfully,
the following criteria must be met:

 *  You must assign the PH capability to the program file at link time
    (using the caplist parameter of the :LINK command).  The user who
    links the program does not need to be assigned the PH capability in
    order to assign it to the program file.

 *  The System Manager (SM) or Account Manager (AM) must assign the PH
    capability to the group where the program is to execute; however, if
    the program file is a temporary file, PH must be assigned to the user
    who executes the program.
