I finally solved this, the code had the S99NOMNT flag set in the SVC 99 request
block, coded in such an obscure way that I didn't notice for a long time.
S99NOMNT overrides S99MOUNT so my previous attempt at a fix failed. The
perpetrator is long gone, of course.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have a REXX Exec that is run in a batch job, that is invoked from a MPF exit
after the 'BPXI004I OMVS Initialization Complete' message is displayed.
The REXX Exec determines what processor and LPAR it is in and issues a 'CONSOLE
ACTIVATE', 'CONSOLE SYSCMD... (to start the appropriate TCPIP)'
I am working with the z/OS Client Web Enablement Toolkit in REXX attempting to

Yup. When I started it was "if it's true, you're through". Same idea, but the

At least in my experience with Windows command line FTP there's a failure to parse the
intermediate "dir" done by FTP before getting each member.
I've seen this in other (GUI) FTP tools where the display of the PDS directory appears
"wonky". It may work if your PDS has no ISPF or other data
Baron,
While it is not the only utility available, I have had great success in the
past with using SAS to write complex data that IEBDG could not handle.
SAS was especially true where I needed uncompressible records - random floating
point numbers are great for this.
While I have not used it,
COND= was invented to test whether your brains are still as sharp as you
boasted they were when you applied for this job.

Look for the Debug Tool Program Directory. If you ordered the product through
ShopZseries, there should have been several attachments to the order, one of
which would be the product library documentation. The Program Directory
contains fairly good information on the product installation
Think of it as "execute this step *unless*
COND=(CC,is{GT|GE|EQ|LT|LE}[{,some prior step|any prior step}]) is true".
Bear in mind that COND= will not apply to prior step(s) that were not
executed.
E.g.
"STEP000 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14" will execute with CC=00.
"STEP010 EXEC
The '//STEPA030 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14,COND=(7,GT)' NXEQ'S because 7 is GT the
CC=00 from '//STEP000 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14' (regardless of the CC=16 from
STEP010) - so STEPA030 *does not* execute.
If STEP000 is commented out, the only previous step is then STEP010 and
it has CC=16, and 7 is not GT than 16,

There is nothing special with https. Assume you already have a certificate

Gil,
But the check is "greater than", so based on Greg's earlier post of "bypass
this step if", the equation becomes "bypass this step if 7 is greater than 16".
It isn't so the step will execute. Definitely NOT intuitive... It becomes a
repeat of the COND checking in STEPA040.

I needed to tweak my IKJCNXAC exit to turn off bits that are on by default.
Once I did an "NI" on that flag byte, the REXX Exec could process the CONSLE

I guess those bits don't matter in a non-sysplex environment.

*Some* compilers generate a warning. if (foo = bar) ... is almost certainly an

several other ways.

Hi Mark,
I saw you were on copy to the response I gave to Dan Kelosky, pointing to the
new toolkit github repo:

But to address the shipped samples question, OA57475 is currently open and will

So wrong on so many counts.

Some C programmers are fond of if (7 == foo) rather than the more conventional

accidentally codes if (7 = foo) one gets a compile error rather than unexpected

For those not familiar with C, foo == 7 is a relational
