I don't quite understand why I'm missing the first IUCV MSG sent to my
virtual machine after an IPL. The basics of this program is:
1) Send a SMSG to VMUTIL of 'RUOKAY'
2) VMUTIL, if alive, will send back a MSG response
"IMOKAY"
3) If the proper response is received the RC is set to
zero, all other cases it's set to 1
My short REXX:
Trace "O"
"PIPE LITERAL QUERY SET",
"| CP",
"| SPLIT AT ,",
"| STRIP",
"| FIND MSG"||,
"| SPEC W2 1",
"| VAR SETMSG"
"CP SET MSG IUCV"
"CP SMSG VMUTIL RUALIVE"
"WAKEUP +00:02 (QUIET IUCVMSG CONS"
wurc=rc
XRC=1 /* Assume bad */
Select
When wurc==5 then /* Message arrived */
Do queued()
Parse pull WuType WuWho WuMsg
If WuType=="*MSG" & WuWho=="VMUTIL" & WuMsg="IMOKAY" then
XRC=0
End
When wurc==6 then /* Console interrupt */
Say "Interrupted"
Otherwise
Nop
End /* Select */
"CP SET MSG" SetMsg
/* Flush everything */
"DESBUF"
If Externals()>0 then
Parse external .
Exit XRC

Any way to avoid missing this first MSG?
