Issue/Introduction

Do Panvalet commands have limits to the number that can be used in the single (1) STEP?

Release:ALL

Resolution

The following is a table of LIMIT and NOLIMIT of each command.

NOL - NO LIMIT LIM - LIMIT * - Check the comment

PAN#1 Commands:
  +--------------+-------+--------------+-------+--------------+-------+

  +--------------+-------+--------------+-------+--------------+-------+

(*)++EXEC
  It has logical limit, in that any ++ cards which follow the first occurrence of ++EXEC will not be executed.
  The ++EXEC terminates the execution of PAN#1 and, transfers the control(XCTL) to the load module that you specified.
(*)++UPDATE, ++C, ++D, ++R
  The ++UPDATE must precede the ++C, ++D, and ++R commands of the PAN#1.
(*)++PASS(VSE)
  The ++PASS depends on the setting of CHCKSEC= of PVOPT.
  If CHCKSEC= is NO, the user ID and password are not validated, even if supplied.(Please see the System Management Guide for the CHCKSEC=.)
   CHCKSEC=NO       - The User-ID and Password is not validated for the ++PASS command.
   CHCKSEC=OPTIONAL - The User-ID and Password is validated only when the ++PASS command is supplied.
   CHCKSEC=REQUIRED - The ++PASS command must be the first command in the input command stream and, the User-ID and Password is validated. The processing does not occur unless a valid User-ID and Password are provided.

PAN#4 Commands: There is LIMIT.
  +--------------+-------+--------------+-------+--------------+-------+
  | ++CLEAR      | LIM(*)| ++SUPPRESS   | LIM(*)|              |       |
  +--------------+-------+--------------+-------+--------------+-------+

(*)++CLEAR (1)
  you can use the ++CLEAR only 1 time in the 1 STEP.
(*)++SUPPRESS (33)
  You can use the following 33 ++SUPPRESSs to restrain the 21 commands and the 12 parameters of PAN#1. The limit is 33 because it is not necessary to define 2 times of ++SUPPRESS for 1 command and parameter.
  Please see the '6-11 SUPPRESS Command' of the 'System Management Guide'.

(*)PAN#8 (255)                                                               
  Panvalet can process up to 255 consecutive statements concurrently.       
  When the action is satisfactorily complete, it only indicates the complete processing of the 255 or less ++SCAN/++REP commands.                      
  It has 255 limits as PAN#8. The limit is not a command level.
