How to get IBM Personal Communications to send IBM-DYNAMIC as device type?
I've been trying to get IBM Personal Communications (PCOM) to send IBM-DYNAMIC as the device type instead of one of the legacy models IBM-3278-x-E but haven't had luck so far. We've changed to use the Express-Logon-Feature (ELF) and ever since then, I cannot logon using Logmode D4C32XX3 which allows non-standard terminal sizes. The TN3270 server has some entries for the legacy models, like TELNETDEVICEIBM-3279-2-E LM2 ,LM2 ... TELNETDEVICEIBM-3279-5-E LM5 ,LM5 TELNETDEVICEIBM-3279-5LM5N,LM5N and also one which would direct me to D4C32XX3 TELNETDEVICEIBM-DYNAMIC D4C32XX3,D4C32XX3 PCOM seems to revert to IBM-3279-2-E whenever I code some non-std screen sizte in the .WS file. Does anyone know if it is possible to tell PCOM to send IBM-DYNAMIC when opening the TN3270 session?

Re: JES2 Start Options
Yet another option: Put a line like this at the bottom of your parm deck: $vs,'$s' This will ask JES to issue the $s command once it is ready. You can then respond with nn,WARM or nn,COLD or whatever to the SPECIFY OPTIONS prompt and JES will eventually start itself.

Re: amode rmode problem
And presumably the EODAD address has to be a 24 bit address also since the DCB has other info in the leftmost byte of that word. No. There are fullword fields in the DCBE to hold EOEAD and SYNAD routine addresses. DCBE fields take preprecedence over the corresponding DBC fields.

Re: amode rmode problem
When the COBOL program is linked AMODE(ANY) RMODE(24) it runs fine, but when the COBOL program is linked AMODE(31) RMODE(ANY) the assembler subroutine abends with a 0C4 abend on the first BSM instruction above. The first BSM instruction switches the AMODE to 24. However, the code is resident above the line (RMODE=ANY almost always means the module is loaded above), so the fetch of the next sequential instruction (NSI) (L 1,R5) propbably fails. (If you're unlucky, there is some storage allocated at the 24-bit NSI address and s few more instructions might execute before strange things happen. Although the ASM routine was programmed to deal with different AMODEs, switching forth and back as needed, it is not able to run above the line. The RMODE of any code switching to AMODE24 MUST BE 24.

Re: amode rmode problem
Peter, the assembler routine IS linked AMODE(24) and is called dynamically. Jim, you wrote it the other way around: subroutine which is called by a COBOL main program.

Re: amode rmode problem
Just guessing: doesn't the LA of DOGETS set the high-order bit? Thus, the adressing mode will not be set to 24-bit... LA does never set the high order bit. It always clears all high order bits not being used in the current addressing mode (only in the low half of the 64 general purpose register, to be precise).

Re: UID(0) and concurrent processes
[snip]..., or the 'need' to have the abilty to have beyond the limit of concurrent processes set forth by MAXPROC(USER/SYS) If this product will be serving a lot of users in parallel, it will nees a lot of processes or threads in parallel. Depending on what those tasks are going to do and how the programmer chose to implement this in the code, the server will need a number of processes or threads. Either PROCUSERMAX or THREADSMAX will have to be set correspondingly. This alone is not strange. You need to think about how many concurrent user tasks your system can cope with and how you can limit this number. If the server tries to go beyond the limit it may have code to deal with this situation, it may seem not to work or it may simply abend (JAVA is known to stupidly abend with S0C4 if it runs ouit of virtual memory).

Re: UID(0) and concurrent processes
Um, MAXPROCUSER? Yes, MAXPROCUSER limits the number of concurrent processes per user, MAXPROCSYS sets the systemwide limit. Don't increase MAXPROCUSER to an unreasonable value just because one server needs a large nummber of processes. Use the PROCUSERMAX attribute in that userid's OMVS segment. (There are a couple more userid level attributes). Aside form this, I would not easily set a JAVA server TRUSTED and PRIVILEGED. There are only a few servers that *really* need uid=0. Most can be setup to run with non-zero uid. Do they say why this server needs such high credentials? If that server starts child prcesses to server individal user request, and if those processes also run uid=0, the users have a meams to run something with uid=0.

Re: Newbie BPX question
Basically, any UNIX program which wants to switch identities (I.e. setuid() / seteuid() functions, aka su) must either be UID(0) (root) or have at least READ access to the BPX.DAEMON profile in the FACILITY class. Not true! - If BPX.DAEMON is *not* defined any process running with uid(0) can switch to any other userid *without knowing the target user's password (provided the target userid hat got a uid assigned). - If BPX.DAEMON *is* defined, this process also needs READ permission, and it needs to run in a clean environment to be able to switch identities *without* knowing the pw. - If a process running with uid(0) *knows* the password of the target user, it may switch in any case. - If a process, not necessarily running with uid(0), does not know the pw but has been granted surrogate authority (some other RACF profiles), it may switch identities.

How is work dispatched on zAAPs (was: Billing for SRB time)
Why do you say that the overhead is greater to dispatch a zAAP than a non-zAAP CPU? (I'm curious.) Well for one thing, when the dispatcher is running on a normal CPU it is already running on the engine where the application code will be dispatched. There is a separate (not externally documented) signaling protocol to get work fired up on a zAAP. Even on its best day that is going to entail more path length than an ordinary dispatch. Are you sure? I would expect the dispatcher to run on zAAPs the same way it does on CPs. It is my understanding (and I may be wrong here) that there are two WUQ (Work Unit Queues) when there are zAAPs. One is for traditional MVS WUs (MVS-WUQ hereafter), the other for zAAP WUs (Java work, zAAP-WUQ hereafter). With this in mind I imagine this could be who it works: Initially a Java TCB is put on the MVS-WUQ. When dispached the JVM will eventually decide that it is now time to switch to a zAAP, so the TCB is marked correspondingly and execution is suspended. The TCB is put on the zAAP-WUQ. If any of the zAAP engines is idle at this time it will be woken up an dispatcher code runs the zAAP-WUQ. If all zAAPs are busy, the TCB has to wait until one of the Java-Tasks running on a zAAP gives up control. Probably because the JVM decided it is time to go back to a CP to continue work. So the TCB is marked correspondingly and execution is suspended which gives control to the dispatcher on the zAAP. I think most of the overhead associated with using zAAPs is from code in the JVM needed to do the switching and of course from the context switch when going to/coming from zAAPs. I'm open to be correct. I'm interested in understanding this mechanism better.

Re: Two silly questions about USS or OMVS on Z/OS
z/OS UNIX is of course multi-cultural!
The shell and (most) of the utilities are written in C.
C needs the LE runtime environment. The LE runtime
enviroment is by default set to the C locale, which
means that text is interpreted with code page IBM-1047.
Therefore shell and utilities are expecting text to be
encoded in code page IBM-1047.
So the user needs to make sure he/she is sending text data
encoded with the code page the shell and utilities expect.
In Germany and Austria, people used to work with their 3270
emulators set to code page 273 which is now replaced by 1141
to accomodate for the Euro symbol.
The vertical bar in code page 1047 (which is what shell and
utilites expect when running in the default locale) is at
code point x'4F'. If you look at code page 1141, you'll see
that this is the explamation point.
Tell the shell, that you are actually sending text encoded
with 1141 instead of 1047 and the shell will understand
you vertical bar.

I'm not sure the above code page dependent statements survive
cut'n'paste'n'post, but this is merely to illustrate the
problems you encounter when trying to write multi-code-page
scripts.
Either run the 3270 emulator in the same host code page the
shell is expecting by default, i.e. IBM-1047 or tell
the shell to expect your code page (see above).

Re: Two silly questions about USS or OMVS on Z/OS
The command response in the text of your email was very hard to read, no doubt due to some translations (code page?) along the way. There were two characters that did not display correctly on my PC. I have to wonder if that is somehow connected??? It sure is! As I have tried to explain earlier, Josef is running his emulator with a German code page (273 or 1141) but his shell session is running in the default locale which means it is using code page 1047. The error message is coded to send square brackets and these are encoded in code page 1047, i.e. X'AD' and x'BD'. If those characters are the displayed in the emulator using code page 1141 they show up as Ý and ¨. Let's put the blame on Windows. ;-) While I usually agree, it is not involved this time ;-) BTW, I'm talking about z/OS UNIX not about z/OS MVS. The latter is much less multicultural. MVS commands expect text to be encoded in code page 037, so does TSO. Fortunately both MVS commands and TSO are only using characters that are code page invariant. (I never dealt with a Kanji MVS, so I can't tell how this works.) REXX is always expecting its code to be in code page 037 (here we go again: German code page users need to use the exclamation point when REXX actually wants a verical bar.) This applies also to REXX scripts run from a shell session. ISPF is somewhat customizable (Don't ask me details, I never fully got it). This list is not exhaustive.

Re: Two silly questions about USS or OMVS on Z/OS
in omvs you use the exclamation mark instead of the pipe symbol. I know that this is a difference to normal unix systems, therefore I have mentioned it. You are being fooled by the code page problem.

Re: how to allow separator pages, job by job?
The JES exits are system wide, PSF exits could be different for different printers. Printing of separators can be turned on and off per printer. You could change your separator exits (either JES and/or PSF) to look for specific data in one of the fields passed to them. The OUTPUT statment offers a couple of fields.

Re: DFS/SMB supported codepages
From RTFM it seems to me that the _IOE_WIRE_CODEPAGE tells the server which code page the data has on the non-z/OS side. The z/OS side is what the dfskern is running with. You need to tell dfskern what EBCDIC code page you want and you need to make sure this matches your terminal emulator's host code page. dfskern probably gets its code page from current locale, which you can change with the LC_ALL environment variable. Hope this gives you a starting point.

Re: Define and start JES2
2,START(YES),means that system will automatically issue a START command to invoke JES2 procedure. However,which procedure name system'll use in STARTcommand? S JES4? First an answer to your second Q (it's a short one): The SUBNAME. 1,here you use 'JES4' and maybe I could use another name such as 'ABCD'.Then, how could the system know that the subsystem you want to initialize is JES2? Put it in another word,how to establish the relationship between the SUBNAME and the corresponding subsystem? Apart from what I wrote about implying SUB=MSTR on the start command the system does not care about whether the STC's JOBNAME and the subsystem's SUBNAME match or not. It does not keep record of that relationship. The system builds SSCVTs from the IEFSSNxx entries and the STC needs to find its SSCVT in order to point to its SSVT (the function matrix). If you name the subsystem ABCD and the STC WXYZ everything will work provided the program running in WXYZ knows its SSCVT is named ABCD. If the subsystem implements functions (via SSVT), e.g. listening for commands, it needs to place a routine in common storage and point to ist entry point from the SSVT. MVS will simply give control to that entry point when appropriate, e.g. when a command has been entered, without knowing which STC this routine belongs to. In fact, the even doesn't have to be a STC around. If you can build your function entirely within common storage and don't need an own address space, you don't need an STC to stay alive after your code was initialized. It's long since I dealt with this, so I hope I haven't mixed up things too seriously. I'm sure some will correct me should I.

Re: Define and start JES2
No matter what you name it, keep the PROC and SUBNAME names in sync. An STC whose name matches a subsystem name is started under the MASTER instead of under the primary JES, which is what you want for JESx. (Otherwise, you would need to explicitly specify SUB=MSTR on the start command.) And, I'd expect JESx to fail if it doesn't find an SSCVT with its name.

Re: 'ALLOCATE' a data set in my TSO/E session
What difference would it make if they occur in a PROC? They are hardly exceptions since they occur regularly (consider SMP/E and utilities).

I've been teaching JCL for years and from experience I can tell that this is one of the frequent troubles they have. I always told them that (in my opinion, of course) DSN= and DISP= belong together.

Re: 'ALLOCATE' a data set in my TSO/E session
I think what I should have said is the following: If you do not code DISP you get the following conditions DISP=(disp1,disp2,disp3) If disp1 is not coded it will default to NEW If disp2 is not coded it will default to DELETE for NEW or KEEP for OLD If disp3 is not coded it will be DELETE for NEW or Keep for OLD Almost. disp3 defaults to what was specified or implied as disp2, except when PASS was specified as disp2. Then disp3 will default to DELETE for NEW and KEEP for OLD.

Re: 'ALLOCATE' a data set in my TSO/E session
As for never, ever, no way, should anybody never, ever not use a DISP even if they want the default of NEW,DELETE, that is also not realistic since it is done routinely when allocating temporary work files like SORTWK and SYSUT1, etc. type files. It clearly doesn't make sense to code a disposition for a data set that allows the DSNAME to default. I'm with John here. Do code the DISP parameter. I especially recommend this to newcomers. The temporary work file cases you mention are surely candidates for exception but aren't they often (mostly?) coded within PROCs? And obsolete in many cases anyway. And since this has not yet been explicitly mentioned: Johnny, be aware that z/OS (MVS) does not support that two or more tasks are simultaneously writing to a single sequential data set. This is why you need to code DISP=OLD or MOD if you want to write to a sequential data set. There are exceptions and data set organisations that work differently (e.g. data bases).

Re: Modify command - lower case command text possible or not?
That appears to be an artifact of SDSF. I noticed that ... It is not only an artifact of SDSF, it is an artifact of many elder ISPF applications. The default atttibute for input fields had CAPS(ON) as default, so everything entered there would be translated to upper case by ISPF's dialog manager routine. So someone needed to change the panel or invent a new one to allow lower case letters to be entered. SDSF's extended command line is one example, ISPF's option 6 Commands is another one.

Re: How to quickly shut down system
From experience on education systems I'd say the $PJES2 isn't even necessary. I would not subscribe to that. $PJES2 should always be done. If JES2 comes down is another matter. I agree, doing the $PJES2 will not hurt. This makes me belive JES2 is one of the (few?) products that listens for the forthcoming offline that XCF communicates and then terminates in a clean quick manner. Actually, *every* xcf group member gets the notification that a system is about to leave, listening to or not. It's just that not every member of an xcf group terminates itself on the system being removed (if it'S still up). But the cleanup interval (until the wait state is loaded) is there exactly for cleanup purposes. Sure. With my wording JES2 ... listens I meant actually listens and acts by terminating itself.

OUTLIM and IEFUSO
I'm trying to sort out the impact of various sysout limitating options but the FM is not absolutely clear in every aspect. Comments, corrections and suggestions are welcome. Leaving punched cards aside, there are four JCL/JES parameters that can be used to limit the amount of sysout output from a job: BYTES=, LINES=, and PAGES= on the JES2/3 JECL and OUTLIM= on the SYSOUT DD. The first three set a threshold for JES2/3 to issue an xyz exceeded message and an action to occur. The action can be cancel, dump, and warning. It is my understanding, that - neither action will trigger IEFUSO to be entered when the threshold is reached. - neither JES will ever cancel a job because of threshold exceeded when the action is warning. - the cancel/dump actions lead to an S722 abend (IEFUSO not called). Do these limits apply to the job level (all sysout data sets from this job) or are they applied on a sysout data set base? I've got a job (the initiator of this investigation) where the number of pages on the IAT1600 PAGES EXCEEDED BY is increasing but the number of bytes seems to start over again multiple times?? Independently from the above, OUTLIM= sets the threshold for the number of lines for each single sysout data set. It is my understanding that - there is no message when OUTLIM= is reached. - IEFUSO is entered when OUTLIM= is reached and the exit decides if the job can continue with a new limit or abend with S722. - the job abends with S722 if IEFUSO is not active (SMFPRMxx) The maximum value for OUTLIM= is 16777215. Can this value e overridden by the exit or is this the maximum number of lines JES2/3 can handle for one single sysout data set? The exits manual doesn't say what the upper limit for the new limit returned in R0 is. Am I missing anything else?

Re: How to quickly shut down system
$PJES2 will most certainly never complete, but it will prevent any new tasks from starting. I would NOT do a TERM because you lose all control at that point.

This makes me belive JES2 is one of the (few?) products that listens for the forthcoming offline that XCF communicates and then terminates in a clean quick manner. caution The case above does by no means reflect real life situations, since no (or almost no) work was going on on those systems when doing the V XCF OFF. /caution Peter Hunkeler Credit Suisse - Information Technology -- 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

Re: Is there a JES3 equivalent to SEGMENT= in JES2?
Actually, JES2's SEGMENT support is based on the number of PAGES, which in turn are based strictly on skips to channel 1, while the JES3 THRESHLD support is based on the number of LINES. Presumably JES2 output that has LINECT=0 specified (somewhere) would result in no SEGMENTs produced, whereas JES3 is more difficult to confuse (in that aspect, at least). As far as I have learnt now, JES3 will only split groups of SYSOUT data sets so that the group total does not exceed the threshold. It does not split one single large data set into multiple chunks. The latter wouldn't make sense anyway, since the threshold is defined as a number of records not pages (i.e. skip-to-channel-one).
