&PPOREPL

Resumes normal processing of a VTAM PPO message, after replacing the message text.

&PPOREPL [ ALARM={ YES | NO } ]
         [ COLOR=color ]
         [ HLIGHT=highlight ]
         [ INTENS={ HIGH | NORMAL } ]
         [ NRD={ NO | OPER } ]
         [ SCAN={ YES | NO } ]
         [ DATA | TEXT=replacement text ]

Used within a PPOPROC procedure to return the updated message text from the previous &PPOREAD to your product region for processing.

The message is returned for standard delivery as specified in the DEFMSG table. NPF processing is not affected by the updated text. Network Partitioning (NPF) processing is not affected by the updated text. The resource name used by NPF is the name extracted from the original text.

Operands:

Examples: &PPOREPL

&PPOREPL TEXT=APPLICATION &7 HAS FAILED

Notes:

An &PPOREPL issued when no VTAM PPO message is available is ignored.

After issuing an &PPOREPL, the message is no longer available in its original form and no &PPOCONT need be issued to return the message for normal processing. &PPOREPL is ignored if the message is an SPO message delivered to the PPO interface. An &PPOREPL is followed immediately by an &PPOREAD to make the next PPO message available.

&PPOREPL lets you replace a VTAM message with replacement text of your own choice.
