Sample initialization statements for JES3

Figure 1 shows sample JES3 statements for a host-connected, channel-attached, non-SNA printer (JNAME=PRT1), an SNA-attached printer (JNAME=PRT2), and a TCP/IP-attached printer (JNAME=PRT3).

Note: These are samples only. For specific coding for JES parameters, see the z/OS JES3 Initialization and Tuning Reference z/OS JES3 Initialization and Tuning Reference.

Figure 1. Sample JES3 initialization statements for three printers. These statements are commonly found in SYS1.PARMLIB (initialization deck member name).

For a host-connected, channel-attached, non-SNA printer:

FSSDEF,TYPE=WTR,FSSNAME=FSS1,PNAME=SAMPPRO1
DEVICE,DTYPE=PRTAFP1,JNAME=PRT1,JUNIT=(00E,SYS1,UR,ON),
       XTYPE=(PRT1,UR),XUNIT=(00E,SYS1,UR,OFF),FSSNAME=FSS1,
       MODE=FSS,PM=(LINE,PAGE,SOSI1),CHARS=(YES,60D8),DYN=(NO),
       CARRIAGE=(YES,A868),CKPNTPG=100,HEADER=YES,
       BURST=(YES,M),NPRO=99,WC=(A),FORMS=(NO,NARROW),FEATURES=(SS),
       STACKER=(NO,S)

For an SNA-attached printer:

FSSDEF,TYPE=WTR,FSSNAME=FSS2,PNAME=SAMPPRO2,SYSTEM=SYS1,TERM=NO
DEVICE,DTYPE=PRTAFP1,JNAME=PRT2,JUNIT=(,SYS1,,OFF),FSSNAME=FSS2,
       MODE=FSS,PM=(LINE,PAGE,SOSI1),CHARS=(YES,60D8),
       CARRIAGE=(YES,A868),CKPNTPG=100,HEADER=YES,WC=(B)

For a TCP/IP-attached printer:

FSSDEF,TYPE=WTR,FSSNAME=FSS3,PNAME=SAMPPRO3,SYSTEM=SYS1,TERM=NO
DEVICE,DTYPE=PRTAFP1,JNAME=PRT3,JUNIT=(,SYS1,,OFF),FSSNAME=FSS3,
       MODE=FSS,PM=(LINE,PAGE,SOSI1),CHARS=(YES,60D8),
       CARRIAGE=(YES,A868),CKPNTPG=100,HEADER=YES,WC=(C)

Figure 2 shows sample JES3 statements for running multiple FSAs under a single FSS.

Figure 2. Sample initialization statements for JES3. These statements are used for running multiple FSAs under a single FSS.

FSSDEF,TYPE=WTR,FSSNAME=J3PSFSW,PNAME=J3PSFSW
DEVICE,DTYPE=PRTAFP1,JNAME=PRT12,XTYPE=(PRM,UR),CKPNTPG=5,
       DGROUP=LOCAL,JUNIT=(390,SYS1,UR,OFF),XUNIT=(390,SYS1,UR,ON),
       FSSNAME=J3PSFSW,MODE=FSS,PM=(LINE,PAGE),WS=(CL),WC=(M)
DEVICE,DTYPE=PRTAFP1,JNAME=PRT17,CKPNTPG=5,
       DGROUP=VOYAGER,JUNIT=(,SYS1,,OFF,,SYS2,,OFF),
       FSSNAME=J3PSFSW,MODE=FSS,PM=(LINE,PAGE),WS=(CL),WC=(Y)
