BLSACBSP — Map the control block status (CBSTAT) parameter list

Description

BLSACBSP maps the control block status (CBSTAT) parameter list. Use this parameter list when calling the CBSTAT service from within an installation-written interactive problem control system (IPCS) exit routine.

The control block status (CBSTAT) service invokes all CBSTAT exit routines for a requested control block.

See z/OS MVS IPCS Customization for information about the CBSTAT exit service. See z/OS MVS Data Areas in z/OS Internet Library at http://www.ibm.com/systems/z/os/zos/bkserv/ for a mapping of the BLSACBSP data area.

Environment

Because BLSACBSP is not an executable macro, there are no specific environment requirements.

Programming requirements

None.

Restrictions

None.

Register information

Because BLSACBSP is not an executable macro, there is no need to save and restore register contents.

Performance implications

None.

Syntax

The standard form of the BLSACBSP macro is written as follows:

Syntax	Description

`name`	`name`: Symbol. Begin `name` in column 1.

␢	One or more blanks must precede BLSACBSP.

BLSACBSP

␢	One or more blanks must follow BLSACBSP.

DSECT=YES	Default: DSECT=YES
DSECT=NO
ABITS=31	Default: ABITS=31
ABITS=64

Note: Users must supply a label (name), and start it in column 1 of the BLSACBSP macro. When the BLSACBSP macro is processed, the label becomes the record name and the prefix to the name of each field in the record.

Parameters

The parameters are explained as follows:

DSECT=YES
DSECT=NO: A CBSTAT parameter list is mapped with a DSECT (DSECT=YES) or a CBSTAT parameter list is mapped, but no DSECT is generated (DSECT=NO).
ABITS=31
ABITS=64: Either a 31-bit or a 64-bit storage map is to be referenced.

Example

Code the following to map the CBSTAT service list, but not as a DSECT. All fields will appear with the prefix CBSP.

CBSP   BLSACBSP DSECT=NO
