Re: ETCRC address space
These are Unix System Services processes initiated from the /etc/rc script at IPL time. You can find out more about them from the SDSF PS display or the system command D OMVS,A=ALL or by using the ps shell command and by browsing /etc/rc. They can be restarted if necessary but you need to find out what service is being supported by these address spaces first. You can also find more information in Unix System Services Planning.

At some point the sample rc came with the INETD startup (comented out) to change _BPX_JOBNAME, but that only changes it for INETD since it isn't exported. So depending on what else you are starting in /etc/rc, you may want to do something like this: # Start the SYSLOGD daemon which supplies logging functions for programs _BPX_JOBNAME='SYSLOGD' /usr/sbin/syslogd -f /etc/syslog.conf & # Start the INET daemon for remote login activity _BPX_JOBNAME='INETD' /usr/sbin/inetd /etc/inetd.conf & # Start Cron _BPX_JOBNAME='CRON' /usr/sbin/cron & Mark -- Mark Zelden Sr. Software and Systems Architect - z/OS Team Lead Zurich North America / Farmers Insurance Group: G-ITO mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] z/OS and OS390 expert at http://searchDataCenter.com/ateExperts/ Systems Programming expert at http://expertanswercenter.techtarget.com/ Mark's MVS Utilities: http://home.flash.net/~mzelden/mvsutil.html -- 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
