Greetings all, System : ADCD - z/OS 01.10.00 running CICS Cicstslevel (030200)
I'm trying to format the file pools for REXX/CICS I "sign on" to CICS (with "L CICS") I enter the REXX transaction, and the expected "Enter a REXX command or EXIT to quit" message is posted, and interactively entered Rexx does work. Attempting to run "FILEPOOL FORMAT POOL1" results in return code -4. According to the docs I'm using, this return code is returned when the user is not logged on to the region. (REXX for CICS—Part One Features and Installation By Dennis Beck) (pdf's are onlne) I think the problem is the "L CICS" signon, which is not requesting any user name / password. That in turn, I think is because only the default (none?) security has been installed for CICS -VTAM logons. If that is the problem, then : 1) Is it possible to "Logon" to the CICS region (without security) so that "FILEPOOL FORMAT POOL1" will be accepted ? I ran a simple command program, and the default userid is CICSUSER 2) Is there an alternate way to format the file pool, rather than using the Rexx/CICS interactive FILEPOOL FORMAT .. command ? else Does CICS/VTAM security need to be installed ? else other ??? solutoin ? thx Mike ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
