I can't point you to the document but I believe I've read AAA - IZZ are "reserved" for IBM. e.g. Syncsort are WER. Our company has a 3 character stock market symbol and I use that as a message prefix. Craig S of the IBM Mainframe Discussion List wrote on 11/03/2008 10:05:36 AM: > What I'm t

IBM reserves characters A-K as first character for products. I would start messages with one of the rest of chars. Itschak On Mon, Nov 3, 2008 at 7:09 PM, Steve Comstock <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > Schneiderwent, Craig wrote: > >> What I'm trying to do is create an internal standard that says a

I think you are correct. My shop has a number of in-house apps/utilities written by several different folks, who have all since retired, so I can't ask them about their message ids. All of the messages do start with U. If you do find the docs, please post a link. I would like a copy too. Li

Craig, IBM manages all three-character component ids (also known as a "PREFIX"). They reserve the ids Axx -> Ixx for use in their own products. Management of these component ids has moved around within IBM over the years, but my most recent information is as follows: You may request the as
