Thanks, but that's something different. SYSTSIN is used for sure by TSO. (Well, TSO batch anyway). I'm sure that SYSIN is used by some utilities. Whether they are "standard" or not, I'm not sure. I can't think of any offhand. I mean, I can think of utilities that use SYSIN of course, but I can't think of any that expect SYSIN to be allocated for terminal input.
This would be a moot point if there wasn't at least one sentence about it in the TSO documentation. http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/ikj4b480/3.2.3.2 Not a whole sentence, but a half sentence that says, "... and specify that SYSIN and SYSPRINT are to be directed to the user's terminal." Then there is an example TSO logon proc with those in it. If not for that I would think that it might just be some sort of convention to allocate SYSIN to terminal. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Itschak Mugzach Sent: 17. heinäkuuta 2008 20:20 To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: Re: Terminal SYSIN in TSO Logon Proc I think its SYSTSIN Itschak | Itschak Mugzach | Director | SecuriTeam Software | | Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Mob: +972 522 986404 | Skype: Itschak Mugzach | Web: www.Securiteam.co.il | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
