Can we have a USRALLOC member in PSI Mainframes.

To execute rexx Macros we will have a clist and at the same time to execute macros,Pannels,Messages we will create a member like USRALLOC and give the datasets names where the macros are and where the pannels are..... In the same way in PSI Mainframes we have Clist but I am not able to have member like USRALLOC to execute all.I have to include the macrocs in the clist and only those macros will be executed. I mean I am trying to create a member that has all these datasets and can be used globally. Please help me in that.

Hello and welcome to the forum,

Please explain "PSI Mainframe".

Also, USRALLOC is not an IBM mainframe term. Please clarify this as well.

Your post is a bitconfusing...

a PSI emulated mainframe will look to the guest system as real iron..
maybe with a different CPC SI, and a different LPAR name,

the customization for TSO will not change...

zOS and friends behavior is the same whatever the underlying hardware is,
a real mainframe or an emulated one FLEX, UMX, PSI, hercules, ...

by the way, how did Your organization get a licence to run zOS on an emulation platform

Hi Enrico,

Thanks for the info

I went and looked a bit online yesterday and decided i didn't know enough to technically reply, so i asked a couple of questions to clarify.

Thought we'd hear from Radhika but we haven't

Hi Dick, PSI is a type of mainframe server. Ok we can leave abt the PSI what exactly I am looking is I want to create a member in CLIST suppose the meber is USRALLOC and the USRALLOC has this code.
* ---------------------- TSO USER ALLOCATION LIST ----------------------
*
MESSAGEOFF
* MESSAGEON
*. USING USRALLOC
*
SYSEXEC * /* LOCAL EXEC LIBRARIES.
'X142025.T.TZ.SYSEXEC'
*

and 'X142025.T.TZ.SYSEXEC' will contain the Rexx macros. So that whwn even we login automatically the macros will work for that id. But in this server its not working. we are not able to create the member in clist to have the REXX Macro PDS in that.we have to write the macros in the CLIST itself. If any one have an idea abt this please answer.

not enough info ...

the data posted is not a CLIST or REXX script...

is just some data which gets processed by ...
You should know by what and how, we do not

the whole process is part of Your organization setup, so we do know little about it

Hi Dick!
not a standard by any means,

its just a local setup procedure consisting of
a file with actions , ddnames and relative dsnames
a driver that could be a CLIST or a REXX... which reads the file and for each line takes the appropriate action

seen it, done it , if You want a sample I can post it

the info posted is not enough to give any help...
unless the driver script is also posted
and the messages issued when running against the posted data

That sort of answers where, but I would still like to see the OP's actual response, especially for: "What happens when you try to create a member?"

(actually, I do not need to see it, but you might want to provide if you need help).
