Not really the LPAR name. That name is defined in the IOCDS at the hardware level. The MVSVAR can return: (1) the SYSSMFID which is <= 4 characters in length and defined in the SMFPRMxx member of PARMLIB; (2) the SYSNAME which is defined in the IEASYSnn member of PARMLIB and is normally used to specify the system name in a sysplex and in DFP SMS constructs. The LPAR name does not appear to be available using TSO REXX. You can see it in the output of the z/OS operator command: D M=CPU . It is >=1 & <= 8 just like the SYSNAME, but need not have the same value. This value can be gotten via the CSRSI macro in HLASM or the CSRSI callable service in an HLL. At my shop, we set all 3 to the same value. > > . > . > J.O.Skip Robinson > Southern California Edison Company > Electric Dragon Team Paddler > SHARE MVS Program Co-Manager > 626-302-7535 Office > 323-715-0595 Mobile > [email protected] > -- There is nothing more pleasant than traveling and meeting new people!
