FEJJCNFG, JES Job Monitor configuration file

New, optional, control directives for JES Job Monitor have been added to the FEJJCNFG configuration file.

Directive Default value
APPLID = application_id FEKAPPL
CONSOLE_NAME = {console_name | &SYSUID} JMON
GEN_CONSOLE_NAME = {ON | OFF} OFF
APPLID
Specifies the application identifier used for identifying JES Job Monitor to your security software. The default is FEKAPPL . Uncomment and change to the desired application ID.
Note: This value must match the application ID set for RSE in the rsed.envvars configuration file. If these values differ, RSE cannot connect the client to JES Job Monitor.
CONSOLE_NAME
Specifies the name of the EMCS console used for issuing commands against jobs (Hold, Release, Cancel and Purge). The default is JMON . Uncomment and change to the desired console name, using the following guidelines:
  • CONSOLE_NAME must be either a console name consisting of 2 to 8 alphanumeric characters, or '&SYSUID' (without quotes).
  • If a console name is specified, a single console by that name is used for all users. If the console by that name happens to be in use, then the command issued by the client will fail.
  • If &SYSUID is specified, the client user ID is used as the console name. Thus a different console is used for each user. If the console by that name happens to be in use (for example, the user is using the SDSF ULOG), then the command issued by the client might fail, depending on the GEN_CONSOLE_NAME setting.
No matter which console name is used, the user ID of the client requesting the command is used as the LU of the console, leaving a trace in syslog messages IEA630I and IEA631:
IEA630I OPERATOR console NOW ACTIVE, SYSTEM=sysid, LU=id
IEA631I OPERATOR console NOW INACTIVE, SYSTEM=sysid, LU=id 
Note: If you change the console name, you must only provide matching security definitions for the MVS.MCSOPER.console profile in the OPERCMDS class, where console is the actual console name. The other references to JMON in the security setup, CONSOLE class and PERMIT WHEN(CONSOLE(JMON)) must NOT be changed.
GEN_CONSOLE_NAME
Enables or disables automatic generating of alternative console names. The default is OFF . Uncomment and change to ON to enable alternative console names.

This directive is only used when CONSOLE_NAME=&USERID and the user ID is not available as console name.

If GEN_CONSOLE_NAME=ON, an alternative console name is generated by appending a single numeric digit to the user ID. The digits 0 through 9 are attempted. If no available console is found, the command issued by the client fails.

If GEN_CONSOLE_NAME=OFF, the command issued by the client fails.
