That's right, I think CA's ENF product (now Broadcom) does that. I think it uses TCP/ip but maybe it's VTAM or something else. Brian -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@list

Haha, sorry for the bad assumption! I was just looking at the CSECT lengths for each entry in CSFDLL31 and they seemed to be larger than I would expect for a simple stub procedure. Frank On Wed, 11 Aug 2021 16:24:10 -0400, Eric D Rossman wrote: >To be clear: I'm the author of CSFDLL31 (as we

Re: DLL linkage vs static linkage

To be clear: I'm the author of CSFDLL31 (as well as much of the ICSF LE libraries). I guarantee CSFDLL31 is just stubs (they are pretty much the LE linkage equivalent to the OS linkage stubs in SCSFSTUB). The only patches (so far) have been to add new callable service entry points. I do agree w

Re: DLL linkage vs static linkage

It appears you CAN explicitly link in the actual DLL ("INCLUDE SIEALNKE(CSFDLL31)"), but I believe that to be unwise for several reasons 1) It acts as if you are simply trying to add your application to the DLL (with your new name), rather than simply utilizing the DLL. That is, your bind step

Re: DLL linkage vs static linkage

I would like to point out that the stubs in SCSFSTUB use OS linkage and the entry points in CSFDLL31 use LE linkage. You should use whichever matches the linkage declared (or defaulted) for the ICSF callable services. It is never correct to specify both SCSFSTUB and an ICSF side-deck in the sa

from what I've found so far; ISHELL starts a shell process in the background to find out the user's TZ setting from /etc/profile and $HOME/.profile. If the TZ setting is found, this value is used when displaying file time stamps. If not found, GMT is assumed. The environment variable BPXWISHTZ

I was using SCSFMOD0 as indicated in the documentation for an earlier release: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/2.1.0?topic=cca-linking-program-icsf-callable-services It does look like more recent documentation recommends the SCSFSTUB library, as you say. https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/2.4.0?topic

Re: Communication between two computer systems (LPARS or physical)

Steff, Looking through the various answers here, I note that someone has mentioned the need for some kind of security, so that others cannot trigger actions they are not supposed to. I think those security issues conflict with your requirement to run synchronisation without any authorisation.
