Issue/Introduction
How can you determine which SCF static option values are being used in your CICS region or Ideal batch job?
Environment
Release: Ideal for Datacom
Resolution
This information can be obtained using the command @I$SCF DIS=OPTIONS. (Only users with Ideal Administrator authority are authorized to execute this command.) This information can also be obtained by dumping module SC00OPTS in the CICS region or Ideal batch job and evaluating a particular offset (see the section below on alternative methods).
* Refer to the CAIIPC Customization and Tuning Guide for detailed information on each of these options.
SCF Static Options and Offsets
The SCF static options are maintained in load module SC00OPTS. These options can only be changed by modifying, reassembling and relinking the static options block that is contained in SC00OPTS.
The options and their corresponding offsets in load module SC00OPTS follow below:

Example 1: Obtaining the QCODE Option Value
Enter the following command on the Ideal command line:
Note: "OFF=8" indicates the offset identifying the QCODE option. (Refer to the above table.)
@I$SCF DIS=OPTIONS OFF=8
Sample output:
=> @I$SCF DIS=OPTIONS OFF=8

In the above sample output, the EBCDIC value for QCODE is "D7" which translates to character "P".
Example 2: Obtaining the SECRTY Option Value
Enter the following on the Ideal command line:
Note: "OFF=E7" indicates the offset identifying the SECRTY option. (Refer to the above table.)
@I$SCF DIS=OPTIONS OFF=E7
Sample output:
=> @I$SCF DIS=OPTIONS OFF=E7

In the above sample output, the EBCDIC value for SECRTY is "E8" which translates to character "Y". "Y" indicates that SECRTY is enabled. If SECRTY had been disabled, the EBCDIC value would have been "D5" or character "N".
Alternative Methods to Obtain SCF Static Option Values
SCF Static option values can also be obtained by dumping module SC00OPTS and evaluating the offsets listed above. The following methods can be used:
- From the Ideal command line, enter:
@I$SCF PGM=SC00OPTS OFF=nn
where nn is the offset into SC00OPTS
(Ideal Administrator authority is required for this command.)
- From a native CICS environment that has Datacom/CICS Services installed in it enter:
DBUT M=SC00OPTS +nn
where nn is the offset into SC00OPTS
