Hi all

sorry, I'm a bit of a REXX newbie.

My site has a default signon JCL procedure, execuded via the signon panel, Procedure ===> TSOPROC, which resides in our SYS1.PROCLIB.
I would like to execute a piece of code to replace that which would:-

/* REXX - ISPF Start Up REXX EXEC */
any special code here?
then continue

1. Define our own CLIST/REXX libraries, and use them, i guess via:-

"free fi (sysuexec sysuproc)"
"alloc fi(sysuexec) da('shrpfx.exec') shr reu"
"alloc fi(sysuproc) da('shrpfx.clist') shr reu"
"altlib activate user(exec)"
"altlib activate user(clist)"

any more, REXX library for example?
And is this correct?

2. Automatically start a number of sessions. I already have code for that:-

trace "O" is this line necessary?
address "ISPEXEC"
"SELECT PGM(ISPSTRT) PARM(2) SCRNAME(EDIT)"
"SELECT PGM(ISPSTRT) PARM(S.ST) SCRNAME(SDSF)"
"SELECT PGM(ISPSTRT) PARM(3.4) SCRNAME(DSLIST)"
"SELECT PGM(ISPSTRT) PARM(6) SCRNAME(TSO)"

3. Somehow execute the original proc

SYS1.PROCLIB(TSOPROC)


How can I do this?

thanks

Hello and welcome to the forum,

Suggest you talk with your system support people to find out if this is permissable - many systems do not permit using other than the standard logon. If it is permissable, they can tell you how this is to be done on your system.

It is, and I can. I'm implementing a Spanish system in Germany. We don't have REXX specialist on the German side, but I was going to write some starting with this.
I've worked at other sites that didn't have a signon proc, abd used my own, but not one that will trigger an existing one.

So is anyone going to respond?

Hello,

I suspect that if someone know how to do what you want, they would have. . .

Why not simply log on "normally" then start the one you want. When you have learned more, you might then do what you want to make it automatic and post how you did it here so it could help someone else later
