Extensions PROCLIB member reference

The following parameters and control statements are for the IMS Queue Control Facility extensions PROCLIB member. You must follow the syntax rules when you code these parameters and control statements.

Note: For an explanation of the PROCLIB member format, usage, and configuration, see 6. Enabling and configuring the IMS Queue Control Facility extensions.

Start of changeThe JOBNAME=jobname parameter (for LQAREA, ONCOLDSTART, ONTHRESHOLDAB, ONTHRESHOLDBC, ONTHRESHOLDCD, ONTHRESHOLDUT, and ONWARMSTART) defines the name of a customer-supplied PROCLIB member for which the IMS Queue Control Facility extension issues an MVS START command.End of change

Start of changeThe PROCNAME=procname parameter (for LQAREA, ONCOLDSTART, ONTHRESHOLDAB, ONTHRESHOLDBC, ONTHRESHOLDCD, ONTHRESHOLDUT, and ONWARMSTART) defines the name of a customer-supplied PROCLIB member which the IMS Queue Control Facility extension sends to the IMS Queue Control Facility server. End of change

The STARNAME=regionname parameter (for ONCOLDSTART and ONWARMSTART) defines the name of a customer-supplied member for which the IMS Queue Control Facility extension issues an internal /STA REG command.

When IMS Queue Control Facility processes these parameters, the following results are possible:

  • JOBNAME is used first, and a server is required
  • If no server is available for JOBNAME, then PROCNAME is used
  • If no PROCNAME is specified, then STARNAME is used
  • STARNAME is only used when both JOBNAME and STARNAME are specified, but no server is available
  • If PROCNAME and STARNAME are both specified, STARNAME is never used

When specifying control statements, use an equal sign (=), parentheses, or both to separate a control statement and its keyword parameters. For example, you can specify the WTODESTINATION statement in any of the following formats:

WTODESTINATION(WTO)
WTODESTINATION=WTO
WTODESTINATION=(WTO)
