Link Names / Files and Job Variables created by CFS

27. Link names

The CFS link names relevant to the user are described below.

C1 First input file for the File Compare function. The user can assign this file as follows: /FILE file,LINK=C1. The link name C1 can then be specified in the COMP command instead of a file name.

C2 Second input file for the File Compare function. The user can assign this file as follows: /FILE file,LINK=C2. The link name C2 can then be specified in the COMP command instead of a file name.

CEXITnU User-specific message module for Connection n.

This link name can be used to link a module library from which the CFS Connection Handler could load a user-specific Connection Exit. 0 <= n <= 9 (Connection number). With /FILE oml,LINK=CEXITnU, the user can access an individual message input/output module. In this case, the CFS Standard CEXIT will not be called. The LOG and RES processes of the Connection Handler, as well as the command memory will not be available, or must be programmed within the users' own CEXIT.

CEXITnA User Exit called by the Standard-CEXIT of CFS.

With /FILE oml,LINK=CEXITnA, a user-specific post-processing module can be addressed. The Standard-CEXIT of CFS calls the CEXIT-A module after a successful message input. This process has the advantage that all Connection Services such as LOG, RES and the command memory are still available to the user. An example of a CEXIT-A can be found in CFS.S.LMSLIB, which converts all lower case characters to upper case in the entered message.

CFSCMD Startup File assigned by the user with a File command.

CFSCMD1 Like CFSCMD, except that the Startup File will also be processed by CFS in DO and Enter procedures (SETSW ON=1).

COMPLIST File containing a comparison protocol assigned by the user with a File command, for the File Compare function of CFS.

DISP Display File. By using a File command,

/FILE file,LINK=DISP,FCBTYPE=SAM,STATE=FOREIGN,RECFORM=..,RECSIZE=..,BLKSIZE=.. , tape files can also be displayed in the CFS Display Mode.

EDTSAM When reading in non-standard EDT files, CFS will issue a file command with this link name automatically. If multiple files are read into the various EDT work files, the EDTSAM link name will be erroneous, and can be deleted by the user with a /REL EDTSAM command.

HELPUSER Link Name for a user-specific Help file (see page 24-).

IFORMAT Format Catalog for the File Information System.

Normally, the Format Catalog will be named $TSOS.CFS.INF.FORMAT. The user can however assign a specific catalog with LINK=IFORMAT.

IFREE Holidays file for the Event Scheduling System. For further information, see page 14-.

INFCB / OUTFCB Link Names for the input and output files for the FC (File Conversion) command of CFS.

INFO INF Catalog for the File Information System.

Normally, the INF catalog is called CFS.INF / CFS.INF.JV / CFS.lib.INF / CFS.INF.JES. The user can assign an INF catalog which does not use the above convention with LINK=INFO.

JRSAVE A file assigned by the user with a File command for Parameter Sets (SP %name). Parameter Sets may contain complex search and replace commands, parameter assignments for DO procedures, as well as complex column definitions for an AD command. Activating the Parameter Set is achieved by the commands S,%name, DO %name, E %name or AD %name. If no File command with LINK=JRSAVE was specified, CFS will use the standard file, CFS.JRSAVE... . The exact rules by which the name of the standard JRSAVE file is determined is described later in the "Files and Job Variables created by CFS" section.

All relevant parameter sets can be displayed by entering %?, one of which can then be selected by marking it in the list.

MAPLIB Module library for the PL command (P-Key Load) and for the P key assignment in the menu file (see page 10- "Menu System for Connections"). If no library is specified with the link name MAPLIB, the P-Keys will be loaded from PLUS.MAPLIB.

MENUE Menu file assigned by the user with a File command for the Connection mask (see page 10- "Menu System for Connections").

MVSIMP Reading in MVS library elements to a BS2000 LMS library.

Under the MVS operating system, the contents of a PO (Partitioned Organised) library can be transferred to tape using the IEBUPDTE utility. The contents of this tape file can then be transferred to a BS2000 LMS library with the name LMS.MVSIMPORT by using the (MVSIMP) command. The tape file must be assigned in BS2000 before the (MVSIMP) command with a /FILE file,LINK=MVSIMP command. For further information, see Appendix 1 "Transferring Libraries from MVS to BS2000" on page A1-.

PDFILE Special print parameters contained in a PDFILE assigned by the user with a File command. If no File command with this link name was specified, the central CFS.PDFILE created by the system administrator will be used.

USERACT User-specific Action Codes contained in a USERACT file assigned by the user with a File command. The hierarchy by which the standard USERACT file will be established if no such link name exists is described on page 6-.

USERLIB Secondary Userlib assigned by the user with a File command. If no File command with this Link name was issued, a library with the name $userid.CFS.USERLIB.STD will be sought. $userid is the userid under which CFS and all other CFS-relevant files (e.g. CFSLIB, CFSHELP) are stored.

Files and Job Variables created by CFS

#CFS.SAVELIST.xxxx

File lists saved by the user with the command SL mn, or saved by CFS itself. These file lists can be displayed again with the command RL [mn]. The #CFS.SAVELIST. prefix can be amended by the system administrator.

#Zelement If a library element is marked with the Action Code D (Display), CFS will create a temporary file with the specified name. After the Display mode has been terminated, the temporary file will be erased.

#file If a file is erased with the Action Code E, and if the ERT option (Erase with Retain of Tempfiles) is set, then this file will be recataloged by CFS to a temporary file with the name #file. If a library element is erased with E, CFS will create a temporary library called #library, and will transfer the element to this library before deleting it from the original library.

The temporary file created by CFS will be erased automatically at /LOGOFF.

$TSOS.CFSCOM This file will be created under $TSOS by CFS when it is loaded for the first time. It will be cataloged with a read password, and be made shareable. Enhancement requests and fault reports in relation to CFS are deposited in this file by the user through the MES command.

CFS.COMPLIST.tsn.yymmdd.hhmmss

Protocol produced when comparing two files or library elements (COMP command).

CFS.DO.ARCHIVE.tsn

DO procedure created by an ONXARCHIVE Variable Action. This DO procedure can be started in dialog, or as an Enter job. If this procedure is run as an Enter job, CFS will create an additional Enter file called CFS.ENT.ARCHIVE.tsn.

CFS.DO.tsn.hhmmss

A procedure created by the ONXDO Variable Action, in which the CALL to the main procedure contains the file names as parameters. This created procedure cannot be erased by CFS automatically. Deleting DO procedures with this naming convention is the responsibility of the user.

CFS.E.tsn.hhmmss Enter file created by the Job Report System if a DO procedure is started as an Enter job. These files will normally be erased automatically by CFS at the end of the job.

CFS.EDTSAV [.jobname].tsn.yymmdd.hhmm.x

In the event of an STXIT ABEND condition, for example in the event of the loss of a line connection, CFS will check if the user has processed a file or library element with an EDT, EDF or EDL Action Code. If so, all utilised EDT levels at the point at which the ABEND occured will be saved automatically to the above-named backup file.

x: Number between 0 and 9, indicating the EDT level.

If a name was specified in the LOGON command, this will appear in the name of the EDTSAVE file created.

CFS.HARDCOPY.jobname.yymmdd.hhmm.tsn

Hardcopy file created by an HC command from the main CFS task, into which all screens can be captured in formatted form. If no file name is specified with the HC command, the standard name as described above will be used.

CFS.JR.SYSOUT.tsn.hhmmss | CFS.JR.SYSLST.tsn.hhmmss

SYSOUT/SYSLST file created by the Job Report System when a DO procedure is started in Enter mode with an E command. This file will be erased by CFS at the end of the job if the user acknowledges the SYSOUT listing with an E (End) command, or by pressing the K1 key.

CFS.JR.xxxxx.yymmdd.hhmmss

Monitor Job Variable created by the Job Report System for the Enter job to be monitored. This Job variable will be erased by CFS automatically after the job has finished, and after the user has acknowledged the SYSOUT listing with an E (end) command, or by pressing the K1 key. The portion xxxxx represents the Job Report Identification under which the Enter job was started. For further information, see page 11-.

CFS.J2.xxxxx.yymmdd.hhmmss

Job Variable created by the Job Report System on the occurence of a /REMARK JRIC command in the procedure file. This Job variable will be erased by CFS automatically after the job has finished, and after the user has acknowledged the SYSOUT listing with an E (END) command, or by pressing the K1 key. The portion xxxxx represents the Job Report Identification under which the Enter job was started. For further information, see page 11-.

CFS.JRSAVE.... Catalog created by the Job Report System in which the procedure parameter assignments saved with an SP %name command are stored, as well as Search statements saved with an SP %name command. The same file will be accessed in the event of an E %name, DO %name or S,%name command. The exact name of the JRSAVE file to be used is determined as follows:

a) Has the user issued a /FILE ... ,LINK=JRSAVE command?

b) Does a file named CFS.JRSAVE exist?

c) Was a job name specified by the user in the LOGON command, and does a file named CFS.JRSAVE.jobname exist?

d) If no Job name was specified, and the conditions a) to c) are not fulfilled, then the JRSAVE file will be called CFS.JRSAVE.acct-#.

The first condition to be met will determine the name of the JRSAVE file. The name of the standard JRSAVE file can be changed by the user by modifying a CFS internal table. For further information, see page 18-.

The user can also specifiy the name of the JRSAVE file directly in the SP, E, DO, or S commands by combining it with the %name option as follows: %name, jrsave.

CFS.LOG.yymmdd.hhmm.tsn

Logging file created by CFS when a LOG command is entered. The LOG file will contain input/output messages for a Connection, and will always be created in the CFS main task. The standard name will be used if the command is entered as LOG STD.

CFS.MEM.STD. .... The contents of the internal CFS Command Memory will be saved to a file with this name if an SM (Save Memory) command is entered. If no file name is entered in the SM command, the file will be named CFS.MEM.STD.jobname. jobname is the job name specified in the LOGON command. If no job name was specified, the file will be named CFS.MEM.STD.acct (acct: Account number of the userid).
