SHORT
INTERNAL STATIC will be retained in the object module only if used.
FULL
All INTERNAL STATIC with INITIAL will be retained in the object module.

If INTERNAL STATIC variables are used as "eyecatchers", you should specify the STATIC(FULL) option to insure that they will be in the generated object module.
