Unfortunately, this thread got established without a proper indication to the thread which inspired it and so your "unnecessary"[1] may or may not be paying homage to what I had already indicated in the title of that thread "An unnecessary controversy". > ... the following is a CICS SIT parameter: > USSHOME > The USSHOME system initialization parameter specifies the name and path of the root directory for CICS® TS 4.1 files on z/OS® UNIX. Don't you find it interesting that the dread three initials appear only in the parameter name - where, thanks to the famous IBM 8-character limit, space is at a premium but there is nary a trace in the explanatory text where z/OS - with a trademark symbol no less - UNIX appears? Curious that! Alternatively it is a good example to anyone actually taking the trouble to pay attention rather than rattling the bars of the cage of obstinacy into which they have imprisoned themselves. Incidentally, I'm not really sure which side of the cage you are on although you are definitely doing some rattling! Further relevant comment is in my response to John Chase. - [1] Boldly to be found expressed as an adverb splitting the infinite in the full IBM tradition! - Chris Mason On Tue, 3 May 2011 12:33:10 -0600, Frank Swarbrick <frank.swarbr...@efirstbank.com> wrote: >Just to unnecessarily add fuel to the fire, the following is a CICS SIT >parameter: > >USSHOME >The USSHOME system initialization parameter specifies the name and path >of the root directory for CICS® TS 4.1 files on z/OS® UNIX. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
