SDSF Primary Menu

[Barry Richardson]

Hello,

I'm new to the list, and have a question.

At our site if I enter the command 'sdsf' from the ISPF command line, I seem to
get a default initial menu, i.e.

LOG SYSTEM LOG DISPLAY
DA DISPLAY ACTIVE DISPLAY
I INPUT QUEUE DISPLAY
O OUTPUT QUEUE DISPLAY
H TSO HELD OUTPUT QUEUE DISPLAY

PRESS END KEY TO TERMINATE SDSF

If I put panel id on, it says that it is ZSDSFOP2.

When I select SDSF from our normal ISPF menu option, however, I get a different
initial menu, i.e.

LOG - Display the system log
DA - Display active users in the sysplex
I - Display jobs in the JES2 input queue
O - Display jobs in the JES2 output queue
H - Display jobs in the JES2 held output queue
ST - Display status of jobs in the JES2 queues
PR - Display JES2 printers on this system
INIT - Display JES2 initiators on this system
MAS - Display JES2 members in the MAS
LINE - Display JES2 lines on this system
NODE - Display JES2 nodes on this system
SO - Display JES2 spool offload for this system
PUN - Display JES2 punches on this system
RDR - Display JES2 readers on this system
JC - Display job classes in the MAS
SE - Display scheduling environments in the MAS or sysplex
RES - Display WLM resources in the MAS or sysplex
ULOG - Display user session log
END - Exit SDSF

This time the panel id is shown as ISFPCU41.

Does anyone know why this happens, and how I can change the first method to show
the full menu as displayed using the second method?

Hi Barry, I'm new here too, but I think you have an entry in your command
table(ispcmds) and the select information for it is different than the select
information on your primary panel. If you are running ispf/pdf 4.2 or earlier the
command is in table ispcmds; if you are running ispf/pdf 4.5 (and maybe 4.4) the
command could be in ispcmds or in an installation defined or user defined table.
Option 3.9 in Ispf 4.5 will tell you what the names are, for the installation & user
tables, the person who configured Ispf chose the names, and if Ispf finds either or
both within your isptlib concatenation, it will open and use the table, if it
doesn't find a user table, no harm, no foul.

I believe you're suffering "migration" pains. The ZDSFOPT2 was
the 1.3.x SDSF convention. Probably just need to update the ISR@PRIM
selection to make the new selection. Think what happens is
you go in the old way and after it does ISFAUTH plunks you
into the correct "Index" group.
