ISSUE WAIT

Description

ISSUE WAIT suspends task activity until the previous batch data interchange command is completed. This command is meaningful only when it follows an ISSUE ADD, ISSUE ERASE, ISSUE REPLACE, or ISSUE SEND command. The options CONSOLE, PRINT, CARD, and WPMEDIA1–4 are alternatives to DESTID and DESTIDLENG.

Options

CARD

specifies that the output medium is a card reader or card punch device. This option is not valid with DESTID and DESTIDLENG.

CONSOLE

specifies that the output medium is that provided for messages to the operator. This option is not valid with DESTID and DESTIDLENG.

This refers to a programmable subsystem such as the IBM® 3790 data communication system. It does not refer to a CICS® or system console.

DESTID(data-value)

specifies the name (1–8 characters) of the data set in the outboard destination.

DESTIDLENG(data-value)

specifies the length (halfword binary value) of the name specified in the DESTID option.

PRINT

specifies that the output is to the print medium.

SUBADDR(data-value)

specifies the medium subaddress as a halfword binary value (in the range 0–through 15) that allows media of the same type, for example, “printer 1” or “printer 2”, to be defined. Value 15 means a medium of any type. The default is zero.

VOLUME(data-value)

specifies the name (1–6 characters) of a diskette in an outboard destination that contains the data set specified in the DESTID option.

VOLUMELENG(data-value)

specifies the length of the name specified in the VOLUME option as a halfword binary value.

WPMEDIA1 through WPMEDIA4

specifies that, for each specific LUTYPE4 device, a word-processing medium is defined to relate to a specific input/output device.

Conditions

48 FUNCERR

occurs if there is an error during execution of the command. Destination selection is unaffected and other commands for the same destination may be successful.

Default action: terminate the task abnormally.

16 INVREQ

RESP2 values:

200

A distributed program link server application specified the function-shipping session (its principal facility) on the CONVID option.

Default action: terminate the task abnormally.

47 SELNERR

occurs if there is an error during destination selection. The destination is not selected and other commands for the same destination are unlikely to be successful.

Default action: terminate the task abnormally.

49 UNEXPIN
