Error description
NEW FEATURE: Support TUNE option in Enterprise COBOL
Local fix
N/A
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL V6.3 who compile * * and run programs that are targeted for an * * environment where their production machines * * are newer than their disaster recovery * * systems and would like to have their * * applications run optimally on all machines * * in their organization. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: New Function: Up until now, the * * compiler has only provided the ARCH * * option to specify the machine * * architecture for which the executable * * program instructions are to be * * generated. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Install the IBM provided PTF and * * specify the new TUNE compiler option * **************************************************************** In the case where a users environment has newer machines in production and older machines for disaster recovery, programmers were forced to specify a lower ARCH level than supported by their production machines so that the applications would not ABEND when executed on their disaster recovery machines.
Problem conclusion
Temporary fix
Comments
New Function: The solution is to introduce the TUNE option to the compiler. ARCH should still be set to the oldest machine on which a program will run, while TUNE should be set to the machine on which the program will primarily run.
