When a job contains JCL after the NULL JCL statement, and fix U7G2018 has been applied, the IOF Job Summary Panel displays the jobs input data sets in error.

Forked Unix address spaces generate multiple IEF142I messages in the system messages data set, causing IOF to incorrectly assign return codes to incorrect steps. With this fix applied, a separate line is shown in the IOF Job Summary for each forked address space. | 2002 133

| IOF/TSO | T7G2027
24Apr2002 |
Modify the SLAMRUN and SLAMOPER clists to disable most indices when excessive indexing is detected. Excessive indexing is specified by the new CONDRATE parm on SLAMRUN and SLAMOPER. The default CONDRATE for SLAMRUN is 100 events per 2.5 minutes. The default CONDRATE for SLAMOPER is 200 events per 2.5 minutes. These defaults can be overidden by specifying a different CONDRATE value. | |

IOF Spin LevelsThe IOF distribution MPI file is periodically refreshed to a newspin level. A spin level consists of the previous level withadditional maintenance applied. A spin level is identified bythe julian date on which it was built, so the higher the numberthe more maintenance that has been applied. IOF fixes that are applied to a spin level are includedin the IOF UPDATES data set. They are marked as "applied" byuser "IOFSPIN". This allows the IOF maintenance dialog toaccurately display the status of all applied maintenance. Use the IOF Maintenance Dialog to display the fix status or your system.
