IBM OS/390 Time Clock User Manual


 
FCB Specification
POWER users specify the full eight-character FCB name, whereas OS/390 users
only specify the last four characters. POWER supports device-independent
specification of FCB-image phases in the * $$ LST statement by allowing $$$$
as the first four characters. POWER then replaces the dollar signs by a character
string depending on the printer:
FCB1 For a 3800 printer
FCB2 For a PRT1 printer (3211, 3203-5, 3289-4, 3262)
FCB3 For a 3203-1 printer
FCB4 For a 5203 printer
FCB5 For a 4248 printer
$$$$ For any other printer type
In OS/390, users specify the four-character name of the FCB and JES2 uses the
four-character prefix based on the device type. The FCB and UCS images are
stored in SYS1.IMAGELIB with device-dependent prefixes.

SC26-4926 for OS/390 details.
10.3.4.9 UCS Naming Conventions
In OS/390, Universal Character Set (UCS) images are stored in SYS1.IMAGELIB
with device-dependent prefixes. POWER does not have any particular naming
convention that must be followed.
JES2 supports four-character UCS names on JCL statements submitted by the
user. Depending on the printer device type, the following UCSnname is
prefixed to the name which is then retrieved from IMAGELIB:
1403 - UCS1xxxx
3203 - UCS2
3211 - UCS3
4245 - UCS5
4248 - UCS6
3262 - UCS6
The IBM 3800, when driven by JES2, uses character arrangement tables
beginning with XTB1.

10.3.5 Interactive User Interfaces (ICCF/CMS/TSO)
Both VSE/POWER and OS/390 JES2 support interactive user interfaces for job
submission and output retrieval, as well as other command functions. In addition,
many VSE/POWER installations use VM/CMS as their interactive terminal
system.
