If you have a Parallel Sysplex (you have a Coupling Facility), you might want
to consider using a new CICS facility called named counter. It would require
no special coding on your part at all.

When I package support files for course labs, I have
for many years used XMIT, then download as binary to
my workstation. Over the years Xmit manager has been
a valuable tool to examine such files.
Today I wanted to look at member in a PDS in XMIT
format and Xmit manager gives these messages:
Yep, I had a problem also in Windows 7 ( 64bit) , fixed it by placing the

2) Generate the relevant update job for TLMS to preserve/restore the
