WTOEXIT execution and refreshability

Products

• IDMS

Issue/Introduction

After changing WTOEXIT, displaying the program with DCMT says it is not found.

Where is the WTOEXIT executed from? Can it be refreshed (new copy'ed)?

Environment

Release: All supported releases.

Resolution

There are two ways to load the WTOEXIT:

• Link-edit the WTOEXIT  into module IDMSUXIT
• Link-edit it as a stand-alone load module and specify its name on the WTOEXIT= parm in the PARM statement of the startup JCL.

Use the DCPROFIL task to find out where the WTOEXIT is located.

IDMSUXIT cannot be varied to new copy.

If it is link-edited standalone no PDE is created for it so it can not be refreshed.

The only way to change the WTOEXIT is to restart the CV.
