Job Control Language (JCL):
See PRISMAproduction/ROUTER Administration Guide
for a detailed clarification of the parameters supported.
Message Generation:
SPS generates operator and user related messages concerning
all phases of data stream processing. User messages are printed at the end of the user
output or may be spinned off to a spool file.
Checkpointing:
Processing checkpoints may be requested by the user, or installation, on
a time basis. This facility permits the restart of a data stream interrupted by transmission
errors.
Installation Specifications
System parameters:
SPS supports a variety of initialization parameters and processing
defaults.
Accounting:
MVS:
SPS generates the standard SMF type 6 accounting record compatible to other
ROUTER/DOWNLOAD systems, for all input data streams processed. If MVS is not able
to write an SMF record, SPS informs the operator, allowing retry or ignore actions. Even
when SPS abends or the MVS system crashes, SPS writes SMF records for the printing
files (either at clean-up or at re-selection time) assuring a 100% reliable accounting
system for the printing jobs.
VSE:
No accounting support.
User exits:
The following exit points are defined:
Print Parameter Exit; PSF exit 15
This exit inserts records to be appended to the Header string, -opa section, that is
transmitted to the server. Each printer may have its own unique exit.
Reliability, Availability, Serviceability (RAS)
Dumping:
Diagnostic dumps are automatically taken in the event of program or
unexplained errors. For direct printing applications, SPS must be RACF authorized in
order to be able to write SYSUDUMPs.
Tracing:
An SPS trace facility is defined which permits the collection of information on all
phases of SPS processing. The level of detail of the trace information collected may be
selected by the installation and varies from flow trace to all control blocks, input and
output data.
Error recovery:
In error situations print datasets are returned to the spool, following an
attempt to recover the situation based on retry counts and intervals that have been
defined in the ROUTER control table, in a hold status therefore allowing the
