| dependencies: | MVS™ Message Service active |
Specifies the language in which the terminal operator will receive USS messages from the MVS Message Service. You are responsible for defining these USS messages to the MVS Message Service and for having the MVS Message Service active in the host. Otherwise, the terminal operators will not receive USS messages from the MVS Message Service in the language of their choice. The terminal user continues to receive USS messages in the specified language, until the terminal user enters another valid USS command using the LANG operand.
For the LOGON command only, the specified language is also passed to the application program during logon processing.
If you enter this operand without a language_code or language_name specified the MVS Message Service is not used for USS messages.
- LANG(language_code)
- Specifies a 3-character code that indicates a valid language. For a list of valid language code values, see z/OS Communications Server: SNA Programming.
- (LANG=language_name)
- Specifies the character string associated with a language. You
can use the MVS Message Service
to define your own values for the language_name.
