Issue/Introduction

We updated a CV to PTF LU07868 level set 19.0.04. DCPROFIL and OPER show the correct level set  but  the Enter Next Task Code (ENTC) message DC055007 displays the wrong information, it still shows the old tape volser.

DCPROFIL has:

VERSION:             19.00.04 

but the ENTC message still has tape:

V90  ENTER NEXT TASK CODE:      CA IDMS release 19.0 tape GJJ04I node SYSTEM90       

 

Environment

Release : 19.0

Cause

The level set was added as a new CSA field, it did not replace the tape volser.  

 00049A         CSATAPE  DS    XL6                 CA-IDMS TAPE VOLSER

 000BC0         CSALVLS  DS    2F                  IDMS Level Set value          P14379

Message DC055007 was not changed to use the level set but you can modify it to display the level set if you want.
This is mentioned in the the documentation section Level-Set Displays and New IDD Operands (PTF LU04373)
 

Level-Set Displays and New IDD Operands (PTF LU04373)

This enhancement improves reporting by replacing the 'TAPE' value with the Level Set value in several messages, utilities, reports, and screens. This lets users easily know what level of maintenance they have applied to their IDMS systems. New message operands were added to display the level-set value, lpar name, and job name in messages. With this enhancement, now you can customize your "Enter Next Task Code" message to show the current version, LPAR name, and JOB name for your IDMS system. For more information, see Message Statement.

These new IDD message operands were added by PTF LU04373 which can be used in messages:
 
    Operand   Replacement Value
     &$A          Level-set value
     &$B          Lpar name
     &$C          Jobname

Resolution

To display the level set in message DC055007  instead of the tape replace the &$9 operand with &$A. To also display the jobname add the &$C operand.
Modify the DC055007 message as follows to display the level set and jobname:

 REP MESSAGE NAME IS DC055007                                            
     SEVERITY IS 0                                                       
     LINE 1 MESSAGE IS
