Transaction Scheduler User Exits

z/OS MVS Programming: Writing Transaction Schedulers for APPC/MVS
SA23-1398-00

Transaction schedulers need to provide the following user exit routines to perform certain functions.
  • XCF message user routine

    Each transaction scheduler must provide an XCF message user routine to obtain information about general APPC/MVS events and to receive inbound allocate requests that are directed to the scheduler.

  • Extract exit
    Transaction schedulers must supply an extract exit routine if they:
    • Call the ATBEXAI service to extract information about their scheduling
    • Run more than one transaction program in their address space simultaneously, and one of the TPs issues an Allocate, Get_TP_Properties, or Get_Conversation request.
  • TP profile conversion exit

    Schedulers can provide an exit routine to convert a TP profile on its first reference and store the converted form of the profile for future reference, thus avoiding repeated conversion and potentially improving performance.

  • TP profile syntax exit and message routine

    Schedulers can provide an exit routine to check the syntax of scheduler-specific information before it is added to the TP profile. An associated message routine can issue messages about syntax errors to the SYSPRINT data set.
