This document describes how to prevent CA7 ICOM from issuing a WTOR at startup.
Add a NOWTOR dd statement to the CA7 ICOM proc to suppress the WTOR.
The WTOR can be suppressed by using a DD statement in the ICOM JCL that has a ddname of NOWTOR
//NOWTOR DD DUMMY
This only does a WTO and not a WTOR and requires the MODIFY command to communicate with ICOM.
When ICOM initialization is successfully completed, a WTOR is issued to the operating system master console.
CA-7.574 (CA7ICOM) ENTER REQUEST FOR ICOM (CA7x)
Without the WTOR, you can communicate with the CA7 ICOM via a modify command such as /F CA7ICOM,D=STAT.
