Using HSSP

To use HSSP, you must specify PROCOPT=H during PSBGEN.

Additionally, you need to make sure that the programs using HSSP properly process the 'GC' status code by following it with a commit process.

HSSP functions similarly to utilities, is subject to the same requirements as utilities, and uses utility private buffers in addition to common buffers.

HSSP includes the image-copy option, the ability to set area ranges, and the option to put the private utility buffers in 64-bit common storage. To use these functions, you need one or more of the following:

  • The SETR statement
  • The SETO statement
  • The SETU statement
  • A DFSCTL data set for the dependent regions
  • DBRC
  • PROCOPT=H

The utility private buffers for HSSP are located in 31-bit extended common storage (ECSA) unless you specify the SETU statement to locate the buffers in 64-bit common storage.
