Hello,. I'm exploring the use of Sub System Interface . I understand a resource manager is the preferred method for handling specific ending address space termination. . To be clear I'm interested in understanding SSI Function Call 08 and not a Resource Manager. . If this function call is defined by a subsystem, the only variables presented to the function routine are: and SSENASID (ASID of Ending Address Space), SSENASCB (Address Of Ending Address Space ASCB), SSENJBNM (Job Name List Pointer) of the SSEN Control Block. . It is my understanding This Function Routine would need to examine some or all of the above variables in the SSEN Control Block. The Function Routine would need to compare these variables against some previously stored values that the sub-systems function routine is interested in. . These "values of interest" would need to be possibly stored in some common storage. My question is how does SSI Function Call 08 determine where the "values of interest" are stored ? Or Where they are stored ? . The subsystem may be interested in the termination of several address spaces. You wouldn't design a unique SSI Function Call 8 routine for each address space of interest. . One technique that comes to mind is the use of a System Level Name Token Pair (NTP). The Name of the NTP could contain the specific Job Name of Interest and the tokens could contain the "values of interest" to compare to SSENASID (ASID of Ending Address Space), and/or SSENASCB (Address Of Ending Address Space ASCB). . Is there any assurance that a System Level Name Token is available when termination is started ? Is the System Level even available to this routine ? How was this validation coordinated prior to the existence of Name Token Pairs ? . Paul D'Angelo .
