I am looking for a good (and easy) way of ensuring that certain programs
only run on a specific LPAR. We are very vanilla z/OS V1.9.

IF your LPARS are in the same Jes plex, ( we are a basic sysplex ),
we use the sysaff ( system affinity) under the /*jobparm statement.
We don't check for programs, rather we just run the entire job, how
ever many steps it has to execute on that system. When we run outside
of a plex, say our
Use Scheduling Environments. They are easy to set up and work great for this
purpose. It also allows you to move the product (program) to a different
system. It does require users to change their JCL.

What about VANILLA /*XEQ
Purpose : Use the /*XEQ statement to identify the network node where the
job is to execute.
It performs the same function as the /*ROUTE XEQ statement.

What about VANILLA /*XEQ
I believe that will only direct you to a specific node. If each system is a
unique node, XEQ will work. I assumed, erroneously, that the systems were in
the same Sysplex.

The intent was to do it for the users, rather than have them change their JCL.
As you know, it is not always guarantee that the user will do what is needed.

In which case look at Walts suggestion - works a treat.
ISVs will be more
Final responds .. before we hit the weekend :
a) Have you got any User exits in your shop
b) have you got any Dataset naming conventions
Then :
a) Drop the ALIAS on the LPAR for those users that are not suppose to be on
that LPAR
b) User your IEFUJV to validate the users JCL
c) or Jesexit6 to
I would love to use this approach but we are a Top Secret Shop and not RACF.
I will see if our security admins can change this to a TSS function.
And yes, both processes are really required. Fail it on systems where it is
not suppose to run, and make it only run on the LPAR of My choice.
Lizette,
Have to read any comparison between RACF and TSS ?
TSS can do the same with half the quantity of rescources supporting it..
If you need any TSS manuals, I would send you some.. ( It actually easier to
read than the IBM manuals )
Never mind... if Palin can say, what she is saying...
