Re: JCL Procedure help
Not an answer to your question, but have you looked at the JCL statements SYSTEM, SYSAFF or SCHENV? //Mikael -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List On Behalf Of Gadi Ben-Avi Sent: den 8 februari 2023 13:45 To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: JCL Procedure help Hi, I was asked to modify a procedure. Currently, the procedure has one step. This step receives input from SYSIN DD * I was asked to add a step that would check that the JOB is running on the correct LPAR. I wrote a small REXX program that check the LPAR, and returns condition code 8 if it's not running on the correct LPAR. I then added an if statement that will run the original step if the previous condition code is 0, and if not will issue a message. The problem is that now the SYSIN DD is allocated to the first step. I know I can code STEP.SYSIN to associate the SYSIN with correct step, but was wondering if there a way to code the procedure in a way so that I won't require changing the way the procedure is used.

Re: LHH oddity
The format of LHH is LHH R1,D2(X2,B2). What you get is the halfword at address 2.

Here's the code running on a model 2828, hopefully it formats OK. This is just a very basic test and not intended for production, just to try and experiment with some new instructions. BASR 12,0 USING *,12 open (sysprint,OUTPUT) open the dump file snap dcb=sysprint,id=1, + PDATA=(REGS,PSW) lhi 7,256 llihf 8,256 sr9,9 lhh 9,2 snap dcb=sysprint,id=2, + PDATA=(REGS,PSW) close sysprint BR14 return drop 12 SYSPRINT dcb ddname=SYSPRINT,+ dsorg=PS,recfm=VBA,macrf=(W),blksize=1632,lrecl=125 The question is: why does the LHH never get executed? I tried using MACHINE(ZS-6) but it still somehow goes from the SR straight to the SNAP. I was expecting an operation exception if the opcode was invalid, or an access exception if I didn't have addressability to the second operand. I even single-stepped with Xpediter, which stepped right past the LHH as if it wasn't there. The SNAPs before and after show registers 7 and 8 as expected, but not 9 which remains all zeroes. Obviously I've failed to understand something very basic. Here's the snap after the LHH 64-BIT GPR VALUES 0-3 0048 80007044 0040 009D3D6C 4-7 009D3D48 009F8588 009BCFC8 0100 8-11 0100 12-15 7002 6008 80FD76C0 Would love to know why the LHH isn't working as expected. My reading of POps leads me to think that R9 should be 0002 but I must be reading it wrong. I was trying to find which document says which facilities are on which machine, but the POps wasn't really helpful: although it describes the facilities in detail it is not clear which models have which facility, in particular which have the "high-word facility" that provides LHH and its ilk. Thanks in advance for any insight you can offer. best regards, Peter -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN

And ISPF is woefully ignorant of the similarity. For example, if in DDLIST I select a PDS with V(iew), DSLIST opens a member list with View as the point-and-shoot selection default. If in UDLIST I select a UNIX directory with V(iew), I get a failure, "Invalid file type". Why doesn't UDLIST do as DSLIST does and show a list of members in that directory? As for the sequential allocation of a PDS member you mention, I was dismayed to learn that OPEN sets DCBDSORG to PO, not PS. -- gil -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
