SYSID Parameter

Defines the name of the local system in a Multi-System Facility, or MSF, network.

If possible, we recommend that you specify either the SMF ID of your system or the SYSNAME from IEASYSxx as the value of the SYSID parameter.

Typically, you should change the value of the SYSID parameter only prior to defining and starting your MSF network.

Default value

The SMF ID of your system. If the SMF ID does not begin with an alphabetic or national character ($, #, or @), then the SMF ID will be prefixed by the character string @@@@. For example, if the SMF ID of your system is 1234, the Default value of the SYSID parameter is @@@@1234.

Other possible values

Any valid one- to eight-character MSF ID. The first character must be alphabetic or national. The remaining characters may be alphabetic, national, or numeric. Imbedded blanks are not permitted.
