Global JES2 Parameters

Note that the global parameters described below have special implications for the SNA NRJE workstation definitions.

CAUTION: The parameters are specified in version 1.3.4 format, and must be converted to the new format if your installation is running JES 1.3.6 or later.
&STDFORM=vvvvvvvv

When a forms ID is not specified, this parameter specifies the default forms ID.

SNA NRJE: If a standard default form is specified, it will apply to the SNA NRJE remote workstation unless it is overridden by JCL or the Lookup Table on the HP 3000.

Default: STD

&PRTFCB=xxxx

The name ( xxxx) of the forms control buffer (FCB) that JES2 assumes is initially mounted.

SNA NRJE: The default FCB name will be used for the SNA NRJE workstation unless it is overridden.

Default: 6

&CCONCHR=c

The character that will identify JES2 commands from local consoles.

SNA NRJE: If the default is not used, SNA NRJE exit procedures might be required for proper Job Management operation by SNA NRJE.

Recommended value: $

Default: $

&MSGID=NO/YES

Specifies whether each operator message is prefixed with a message identifier.

SNA NRJE: SNA NRJE keys off this identifier when routing output. If NO is specified, SNA NRJE exit procedures might be required for proper Job Management operation by SNA NRJE.

Recommended value: YES

Default: YES

LOGONn

APPLID=vvvvvvvv

The job entry subsystem that VTAM is expecting.

Recommended value: JES2

Default: JES2

JES2 Macros and Parameters

This section describes JES2 macros and parameters. Parameters are listed according to JES2 version 4.1 syntax. Some parameters used a different syntax in earlier versions of JES2 than in 4.1; the pre-4.1 syntax is shown in parentheses.

LINEnnn

Password=xxxxxxxx

A security measure to keep unauthorized users from using this line.

UNIT=SNA

Specifies that this is a logical line used in an SNA environment.

RMTnnnn

DEVTYPE=LUTYPE1 (LUTYPE1)

Specifies that this is an LU type 1 that can be accessed only through a logical line defined by the LINEnnn macro with the parameter UNIT=SNA specified (described above).

BUFSIZE=nnnn

The RU size for the workstation. This must match the RUSIZES parameter of the MODEENT macro in the Logmode Table entry in the ACF/VTAM installation.

Values: 256 (or 512 for SNA NRJE)

Default: 128

COMPRESS=YES (COMP/NOCOMP)

Specifies whether compression is to be done. We recommend that COMPRESS=YES be specified, so that the workstation is free to choose compression in its configuration. This also means that the PRIPROT parameter of the MODEENT macro in the Logmode Table entry must be configured for compression.

Recommended value: COMPRESS=YES (COMP)

Default: COMPRESS=NO (NOCOMP)

CONS=YES (CONSOLE)

Specifies that this remote terminal has an operator console.

COMPACT=NO (NOCMPCT)

Hewlett-Packard does not support compaction.

Discintv=nnnn

The amount of time, in seconds, that JES2 will wait for a successful text transmission in either direction before it terminates the session.

Range: 1-8160

Recommended value: 0

Default: 0

LUNAME=xxxxxxxx

Do not specify this parameter

NUMPR=n NUMPU=n NUMRDR

The number of logical printers, punches, and readers. The sum of these parameter values should not be greater than 7 for a remote workstation with a console (CONS=YES is specified).

Range: 1-7

Password=xxxxxxxx

A security measure to keep unauthorized users from using the remote terminal.

SETUP=MSG (SETUPMSG)

Specifies that JES2 is to inform the remote operator of any setup requirements through messages to the operator console. The alternative parameter, SETUP=PDIR, specifies that the setup information is sent in a Function Management Header. For more information, see the JES2 installation guide for your system.

SETUP=PDIR (SETUPHDR)

Causes JES2 to send a PDIR to the remote workstation. SNA NRJE interprets the information contained there, enabling it to print extra copies and perform Job Management tasks.

LOCAL190=INFO (SETUPINF)

Causes the operator setup messages to be information only.

WAITIME=n

Specifies the RTAM wait time, in seconds. For more information, see the JES2 installation guide for your system.

Rnnnn.PRm

This macro specifies the characteristics of a printer at a remote terminal. nnnn is the number of the remote terminal specified in the RMT nnnn statement.

AUTO

Specify this parameter only for releases before and including Release 1.3.2.

CCTL=YES

Causes JES2 to place carriage control characters in the output stream transmitted to this remote printer.

CKPTLINE=nnnnn CKPTPAGE=nnnnn

The product of these two parameters determines the chain size for output data sets.

CMPCT=YES/NO (CMPCT/NOCMPCT)

Do not specify this parameter for SNA NRJE. Hewlett-Packard does not support compaction.

COMPress=YES/NO (COMP/NOCOMP)

Do not specify this parameter for SNA NRJE. By not specifying this parameter, the value specified for the RMT nnnn macro defines whether compression is allowed.

FCBLOAD=YES/NO (FCBLOAD/NOFCBLOAD)

Do not specify this parameter for SNA NRJE. If SETUPHDR SETUP=PDIR is specified in the RMT nnnn macro (described earlier in this chapter), FCBLOAD=NO is forced. So, the parameter FCBLOAD should not be specified.

LRECL=nnn

The logical record length for this printer. Note the SNA NRJE range limitations in table 2-1.

Range: 1- 255

PRWIDTH=nnn

The size, in bytes, of a logical record for the printer; usually, this is 132. Note the SNA NRJE range limitations in table 2-1.

Range: 1- 255

Default: 120

SELECT

Do not specify this parameter for SNA NRJE. SNA NRJE Output Job Management controls where output will be routed.

Sep=YES

Specifies that separator pages will be provided between data set groups.

START=YES START

Causes JES2 to start this printer when it starts processing; so, the DRAIN parameter must not be specified.

Default: If neither the START parameter nor the DRAIN parameter is specified, this macro (Rnnnn.PR m) defaults to START.

UCS=0

Specifies the universal character set (UCS) is to be mounted for any output that does not specify a UCS.

Rnnnn.PUm

This macro specifies the characteristics of a card punch at a remote terminal. nnnn is the number of the remote terminal specified in the RMT nnnn statement.

AUTO

This parameter is not valid with JES2 1.3.4 or later. The equivalent work selection (WS) criteria to cause automatic selection of data sets with a form other than the one currently mounted on the JES2 printer is WS=(/F).

CCTL=YES

Causes JES2 to place carriage control characters in the output stream transmitted to this remote punch.

CKPTLINE CKPTPAGE

The product of these two parameters determines the chain size for output data sets.

COMPCT=YES/NO (CMPCT/NOCMPCT)

Do not specify this parameter for SNA NRJE. Hewlett-Packard does not support compaction.

COMPRESS=YES/NO (COMP/NOCOMP)

Do not specify this parameter for SNA NRJE. Not specifying this parameter causes whatever is coded in the RMT nnnn macro (described earlier in this chapter) to take precedence.

LRECL=nnn

The logical record length for this punch; usually, this is 80. Note the SNA NRJE range limitations in table 2-1.

Range: 1- 255

Default: 80

SELECT

Do not specify this parameter for SNA NRJE. SNA NRJE Job Output Management controls where output will be routed.

SEP

Specifies that separator cards will be provided between data set groups.

START=YES

Causes JES2 to start this punch when it starts processing; so, the DRAIN parameter must not be specified.

Default: If neither the START=YES parameter nor the DRAIN parameter is specified, this macro (Rnnnn.PU m) defaults to START=YES.

Rnnnn.RDm

This macro specifies the characteristics of a card reader at a remote terminal. nnnn is the number of the remote terminal specified in the RMTnnnn statement.

START

Causes JES2 to start this reader when it starts processing.
