Specifying help data sets z/OS TSO/E Customization SA32-0976-00 |

You can use the HELP statement in SYS1.PARMLIB member IKJTSOxx to define help data sets for different languages. For the list of languages that IBM® provides help data sets for, see the appropriate installation manual. On the HELP statement you can:
To define help data sets in IKJTSOxx, do the following:
.-,--------. V | >>-HELP--language--(---'dsname'-+-)----------------------------><
Note: When setting up the HELP parmlib statement, consider the DYNAMNBR
parameter on the JCL procedure used by LOGON. Each data set added
increases the number of the data sets dynamically allocated during
the TSO/E session.
A sample SYS1.PARMLIB HELP statement is shown in the following
example.
When the HELP command locates information, it first checks the SYSHELP ddname for allocation. If the file is allocated, it searches only those data sets. If the file is not allocated, the HELP command checks the user profile table (UPT) for the primary and secondary languages, allocates the corresponding data sets to a file, and searches that file for the help information. If no entry is found for the primary or secondary language, U.S. English is used as the default. In all cases, if a user's primary language is not supported at the user's terminal or if allocation problems occur, the HELP command attempts to use the secondary language. If both attempts fail, U.S. English is used. You can use the PARMLIB command to list the current HELP defaults in SYS1.PARMLIB and dynamically update them (with the contents of IKJTSOxx) without having to re-IPL the system. You can also use the PARMLIB command to check the syntax of the HELP statement. For more information about using SYS1.PARMLIB and the PARMLIB command, see . |
