Error description

  • Rational Developer for System z - RDz - v8.5.1
    When using the RDz Submit from the Menu manager for a
    PDS(member) that has a combined length of ? 44 characters it
    will fail with a pop-up message stating:
    z/OS JobSumitFile Action Execution
    Usage error.  (2005)
    
    In the Jes Job Monitor log (jmon.log) on the host the following
    exception can be found
    FEJ308E Malformed command received (S1:ZU08):
    SUBMITDS ZTSO1.TESTTES.TESTTES.TESTTES.TESTTES.TESTTE(M1234567)
    
    Recreation:
    Create a PDS with a name that contains ? 44 characters such as
    candyl.test1.test2.test3.test4.test
    Add 2 members such as cbldbgex.jcl, and db2samp.jcl.
    Right click on each member in the RSE view of RDz and click
    on Submit.
    The submit for CBLDGEX fails but DB2SAMP it works.
    
    I can successfully submit all of these from ISPF.

    01.JMON argument validation rejects DSN+MEMBER > 44 characters.
    02.JMON stops reading spool dataset when a zero-length record
       is encountered due to incorrect I/O error processing.
    03.JMON port handling changed in v801. This enhancement lets
       the JMON IVP determine the host version, so that the same
       IVP can be used for all versions.
    

Problem conclusion

  • 01.JMON argument validation corrected to accept DSN+MEMBER < 55
       characters.
    02.JMON I/O error processing corrected.
    03.JMON port handling changed in v801. This enhancement lets
       the JMON IVP determine the host version, so that the same
       IVP can be used for all versions.
