What is missing in the redbook, is a program to grab JES2 spool output and send to IP printer using LPR. May be someone else can help with that part. From: Michel Beaulieu Sent: May 21, 2018 10:54:16 PM To: IBM Mainframe Discussion List

Tony, May be you can find what you need in this redbook: IBM z/OS V1R13 Communications Server TCP/IP Implementation: Volume 2 Standard Applications SG24-7997 http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/pdfs/sg247997.pdf IBM z/OS V1R13 Communications Server TCP/IP Implementation

Re: CLIP?

It's a rather old acronym, going back to a stand-alone program for the S/360. The original CLIP could only change the 6-character volser on a DASD volume; later versions could create a tape volume label. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz http://mason.gmu.edu/~smetz3

Re: CLIP?

Nope, originally it was a stand-alone program for DASD, and changed only the 6-character volume serial number. Later versions could create a tape label. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz http://mason.gmu.edu/~smetz3 From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List

I seriously doubt that. Certainly I never heard the term in a computer context prior to the CLIP program of S/360. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz http://mason.gmu.edu/~smetz3 From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List on behalf of

XCF ARM for Automation

Sometime ago it was suggest that we have a XCF ARM Policy so that our automation product automatically restart if it went down. We've never setup an ARM policy and I'm looking for a sample, other than the one in SAMPLIB. Anyone have a simple one they would be willing to share? Thanks, Ken
