Additional Variable Output

When a successful REGISTER request is completed (RC < 8), additional variable output is created.

The following are the created output variables:

OPSRGTYPE

1-Initial REGISTER request performed.

2-Restart REGISTER request performed.

OPSRGFLAG

1 byte hex flag indicating special restart conditions:

'80'x-ARM restarts are disabled in this sysplex. Automatic restart on failure is not performed.

'40'x-ASSOCIATE request completed in previous start. Reissue ASSOCIATE request.

'20'x-READY request completed in previous start. Element reached ready state prior to failure causing restart.

Use BITAND(OPSRGFLAG,'n0'x) = 'n0'x to test flag for specific values.

OPSRGHOMEID

MVS clone ID of original registration.

OPSRGCURID

MVS clone ID of current registration. Compare to home ID to detect cross-system restart.

OPSRMTOKEN

Restart the manager token. The REGISTER request creates and returns this value when registering an abstract element (TERMTYPE = 'CURSYS'). Save this value for use in subsequent abstract element requests. The contents of the restart token must not be modified by the application registering the element.

For further information on the register data values displayed above, see the IBM macro IXCYARAA.
