Folks

Anyone know in which manual can I find the STCCLASS and TSUCLASS initialisation parameters documented please?
Not in 1.12 JES2 Init & Tuning. I suspect that they are synonymous with JOBCLASS(STC) and JOBCLASS(TSU). I have inherited support for a JES2 system that has STCCLASS and TSUCLASS specified in the init deck, so just looking for definitive description.

STCCLASS AUTH=ALL,
BLP=YES,
COMMAND=EXECUTE,
MSGCLASS=W,
MSGLEVEL=(1,1),
REGION=512K,
TIME=(60,0)

TSUCLASS AUTH=ALL,
BLP=YES,
COMMAND=EXECUTE,
MSGCLASS=W,
MSGLEVEL=(1,1),
REGION=512K,
TIME=(60,0)

Also commands $DSTCCLASS and $DTSUCLASS don't appear to be documented.

Confused??

Thanks

Andrew

First answer - Yes the JOBCLASS(TSU) and JOBCLASS(STC) is what you want to
look at.

Second Answer:
$D JOBCLASS(n) - Display job class characteristics

$T JOBCLASS - Set job class characteristics

To modify the characteristics associated with one job, all started task
(STC) jobs, or time-sharing user (TSU) classes.

JOBCLASS(STC) or
JOBCLASS(TSU) initialization statements.

TSU and STC are subparms of $D/$TJOBCLASS

Sorry. The definition isn't expressly stated. It's hinted at in the
explanation for $HASP837.

...

The syntax for JES2 initialization parameters and commands have changed
a number of times over the years, and some of those changes very
definitely involved unifying extremely similar and related parameters
and commands into a common syntax with an additional parameter to
distinguish. I strongly suspect the STCCLASS and TSUCLASS to
JOBCLASS(xxxx) are an example of this, and while the old forms may still
be supported for compatibility, they would not be documented if their
use is deprecated, and the old forms may cease to be supported at some
arbitrary point in the future.

I suspect someone there ignored some JES2 migration instructions in the
past.

I believe the JOBCLASS parameters and corresponding commands others have
mentioned are the current incarnation and the versions that should be in
use rather than the obsolete forms. If the sub-parameter migration is
not obvious, you may have to find a manual old enough to have
documentation on the old forms (or perhaps search for STCCLASS/TSUCLASS
migration information on-line).
