Customize the CAICCI TCP/IP PROC Names

To change the default names of the CAICCI procs to conform to site naming standards, use the CAICCI SPNPARMS DD. You can add parms similar to:

TCPIP      SERVICE  SERVER_NAME=MVS_START_SERVER,
           MAX#_PROCESSES=1
           PROCESS  PROCESS_TYPE=MVS_STC,PROCNAME=xxxxxxxx,
           TERM_TYPE=STOP,PAUSE_TIME=28,
           PARM=!

The label (starting in column 1) identifies the protocol that is associated with the proc. The label is the protocol (first) parameter of the PROTOCOL statement. Only update the PROCNAME field with the name you want to use. Do not change any other PARM, except for possibly the PAUSE_TIME parameter.

The new PROCESS parameter TERM_TYPE directs how the STC Spawn Server is to terminate the Started Task. Specifying TERM_TYPE=CANCEL, which is the default, directs the STC Spawn Server to terminate the Started Task using the CANCEL command. Specifying TERM_TYPE=STOP directs the STC Spawn Server to terminate the Started Task using the STOP command.

The new PROCESS parameter PAUSE_TIME=xx directs the STC Spawn Server to wait xx seconds for the Started Task to respond to a STOP command. If the Started Task has not terminated within xx seconds, a CANCEL command is then issued. The PAUSE_TIME value ranges from 4 to 60 seconds, in multiples of four. The default value is 10 seconds.

The PAUSE_TIME parameter can be increased for any newly added or existing SPNPARM definitions if the Started Task consistently fails to terminate before the STC Spawn Server reverts to issuing a CANCEL command.

CCISPNPM is supplied in the CAW0OPTN data set as a sample SPNPARMS member.
