Using Content Manager OnDemand data areas
Data areas can be used to customize the way certain processes run. The following table lists the
data areas that can be created and used with Content Manager OnDemand.
| Data area name | Library | Scope | Description | Details |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| QDFTINST | QUSRRDARS or any other library in library list when command is run | global (if in QUSRRDARS or any other library in library list when command is run) | Default instance name used when INSTANCE(*DFT) is specified on a Content Manager OnDemand command. The QDFTINST data area can exist in
multiple libraries. A search for the QDFTINST data area is performed using the library
list. The first data area found will be used. If the QDFTINST data area is not found using
the library list, the QUSRRDARS library will be searched for the data area. If the data
area exists in the QUSRRDARS library it will be used. If the QDFTINST data area is not
found, instance QUSROND is used. This data area does not apply to the STRTCPSVR and ENDTCPSVR commands. See the STRTCPSVR data area instead. |
*CHAR with a length of 10. Contains a specific instance name, left-aligned. |
| STRTCPSVR | QUSRRDARS | global | Default instance name for use with the STRTCPSVR SERVER(*ONDMD) INSTANCE(*DFT) and ENDTCPSVR SERVER(*ONDMD) INSTANCE(*DFT) commands. | *CHAR with a length of 10. Contains a specific instance name, left-aligned. |
| QRLMMONEXT | QUSRRDARS or instance library | global (if in QUSRRDARS) or instance (if in instance library) | See Output queue or directory monitor user exit program for details. | See Output queue or directory monitor user exit program for details. |
| QRLMMONQ (no longer used; use QRLMMONEXT instead) | ||||
| ARSPRT400 | QUSRRDARS | global | Value to use for the user data (USRDTA) attribute when server printing. | *CHAR with a length of 10. Possible values are *APPL (application name), *APPLGRP (application group name), *USERID (user profile that issued the print request; this is the default if the data area does not exist), or *USERDATA (user data setting of the printer file named in the application). Application names and application group names longer than 10 characters are truncated to 10 characters. |
| ARSLOADEXT | QUSRRDARS | global | If data area exists, the postprocessor program that is specified in the Content Manager OnDemand application definition is passed a parameter that contains the name of the file being processed. See Using postprocessor parameters with Content Manager OnDemand for i for details. | *CHAR with any length up to 500. Can be left blank. |
| QRLMSVRLVL | QRDARS | global | Current server version. Used to control QSYSOPR warning message during server version upgrade PTF apply process. | *DEC with a length of 9 0. Contains current Content Manager OnDemand server version. If you prefer to prevent the server version upgrade warning message from being issued, you can create this data area and set the value to match the new server version to which you are upgrading, such as 10503. |
| QRLMFKPORT | QUSRRDARS | global | Port number for the FNDKEYOND command to communicate with the QRLROCD.EXE program on the workstation. | *CHAR with a length of 10. Contains the port number in positions 1 through 5. The port number must be right justified within the first 5 positions, with leading zeros if needed. For example, port 3015 is specified as VALUE('0301500000'). Positions 6 through 10 are no longer used and can remain blank or be padded with zeros. |
| QRLMRMTLOD | instance library | instance | Used when archiving from Content Manager OnDemand for i to another Content Manager OnDemand system on any platform. See Archiving data from Content Manager OnDemand for i directly into Content Manager OnDemand systems on other platforms for details. | *CHAR with a length of 10. Can be left blank. |
| QRLCASMNFS | QUSRRDARS or instance library | global (if in QUSRRDARS) or instance (if in instance library) | NFS retry timeout value, in seconds. | *DEC with a length of 5 0. Possible values are 0 to 1000. Contains the number of seconds for Content Manager OnDemand to wait for a successful NFS server response. If the NFS server does not respond within the timeout period, the read/write is retried up to five times before quitting. This timeout value can affect retrieving data and running Archived Storage Manager (ASM). |
| QRLCUFS | instance library | instance | Controls whether file systems remain mounted when the Content Manager OnDemand instance server is ended. | *CHAR with a length of 10. Possible values are *YES (left-aligned) which keeps the file systems mounted, or blank. Default without data area or if value is not *YES is to unmount the file systems when the instance server is ended. |
| QRLCTAPE | QRDARS | global | Controls end-of-tape option (ENDOPT) during Content Manager OnDemand tape processing, such as ASM. | *CHAR with a length of 7. Possible values are *LEAVE and *UNLOAD, left-aligned. Default without data area is to unload the tape. Note that *REWIND is not supported, since it would not be logical to rewind the tape and leave it loaded. |
