Suppress the Dynamic Definition of the System Symbols

The following system symbols are added to the static system symbol table during the CAMASTER initialization:

• VMUSERID
• LPARNAME
• HRDWNAME
• SMFID
• OSLEVEL

This may cause a conflict if you use a separate application to define these system symbols dynamically. To prevent such conflicts, suppress the dynamic definition of these system symbols.

Follow these steps:

1. In the SYS1.PARMLIB(CAIMST00) member, locate the following parameter:

   SYSSYM(YES)
   

   When set to the default value of YES, this parameter allows the system symbols to be defined automatically.

2. Set the parameter to NO, and save the changes.

   SYSSYM(NO)
   

   The change takes effect and suppresses the dynamic definition of the system symbols after the next IPL.
