operating system to execute the JOB
Value specified will apply to each step
Formats are:
REGION=<value>K
REGION=<value>M
REGION parameter should only be in units of “K” or “M”
indicating Kilobytes or Megabytes of workspace requested;

If omitted, a default value is assigned by the system

REGION specifies the maximum CPU memory allocated for a
particular job or job step. If REGION is in the JOB card, it
relates to the entire job; if in the EXEC statement, it
relates to the job step.

full access to available storage in address space.
