Because the CICS programs are loaded by the CICS loader and not by normal z/OS program loading mechanisms. I thought IBM was going to change that 20 years ago to make CICS easier to maintain.

-Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List On Behalf Of Ted MacNEIL ..if our CEE, MQ, and EQAW libraries are all in the system linklist must they still be specified in the DFHRPL concatenation? The answer is YES; I've never understood why. The CICS Loader Domain, which loads all programs for which a CICS PPT definition is needed, searches //DFHRPL exclusively. If an individual program definition specifies to use an LPA copy, then it will search the LPA for that program, but it otherwise ignores the standard search order including the link list. -jc- -- 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: CICS DFHRPLConcatenation
Such a change will perhaps never happen. CICS support storage protection for RENT programs since a long time before z/OS does this for NON APF programs. There are more nice features provided by CICS with some help from z/OS Roland Because the CICS programs are loaded by the CICS loader and not by normal z/OS program loading mechanisms.

Re: CICS DFHRPLConcatenation
i think that the reason the loadlibs need to be in DFHRPL even if in linklist is because CICS does its own type of load of the modules from DFHRPL, not a MVS load which would come out of steplib/linklist. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ted MacNEIL Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2008 7:28 PM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: Re: CICS DFHRPLConcatenation ..if our CEE, MQ, and EQAW libraries are all in the system linklist must they still be specified in the DFHRPL concatenation?

CICS now uses standard z/OS facilities to load programs into memory. Now, CICS is OCO, so I cannot actually know how it does this. But, as an example, it could do something like: LOAD DE=bldl_list_entry, DCB=DFHRPL, LSEARCH=NO, ADRNAPF=starting-address-to-load-module-to -- John -- 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
