Re: MVS TK4 or CE


 

Have you read Introduction to the New Mainframe?

Thanks to Bob and Rene! I've completed all tasks in the 'install_and_use.pdf' and completed testing of printing from MVS to VM using both a VM userid AND the label SYSTEM in the JOB card.. In all honesty, I got so excited that I should've read more of the 'install_and_use.pdf', I've also "purged" entries from the OUTLIST display using the 'P' subcommand (D for delete and E for erase didn't work. . .wink, wink!).

Eventually I found the cookbook referenced in the aforementioned PDF. The actual URL is .

My issues are resolved. Thank you everyone for my newbie-ism!

Hello Bob,

Indeed, you are correct. I had not noticed this issue before, as I always code at least a MSGCLASS on every job card to control my sysout. This is a bug in the exit code.
Thanks for your confirmation.

I wonder if this can be fixed somehow. I dimly remember that this usermod is also rather old and the company which has provided that didn't respond to an inquiry I did. Not surprising. :-)

I also don't know if this mod exists only binary form, or if source is available. And even more interesting, who would take the time and dedicate his skills to implement and distribute a fixed version.

As an easy work around, you could code a pretty minimal job card:

//JOBX JOB 1
That's what I'm currently doing, but mainly by adding a MSGCLASS.

I've left aside MVS for some years. Too many other duties and hobbies. ;-)

:wq! PoC
