Format of an NMR that contains an unformatted command

Unformatted commands are sent in NMRs and can be distinguished from other NMRs because the NMRFLAGC flag is set on and the NMRTYPEF flag is set off.

Table 1. Fields in the unformatted command NMR
Field Name	Offset in Hex	Length	Type of Data	Default Value	Valid Range	Description
NMRFLAG	0	1	byte	0	none	Flag byte
bit NMRFLAGC		.1	80 bit	1	none	If on, the NMR contains a command.

bit NMRFLAGW		.1	40 bit	0	none	If on, the NMROUT field contains the remote number. AS/400 does not use the bit. JES3 sets and does not use the bit. RSCS uses but does not set the bit. POWER does not use or set the bit.

bit NMRFLAGT		.1	20 bit	0	none	If on, the NMROUT field contains the originating userid. AS/400 uses this bit. JES3 and POWER do not use or set the bit. RSCS does not use this bit.

NMRFLAGU		.1	10 bit	0	none	If on, NMROUT contains the originating console identifier. AS/400 does not use this bit. POWER does not use or set this bit. JES3 sets the bit it if is transmitting an NMR that contains a command. It is not used when JES3 receives an NMR that contains a command. RSCS does not use the bit.
bit NMRFLAGR		.1	08 bit	0	none	If one, the console is remote-authorized only. AS/400 does not use this bit. JES3 sets but does not use the bit. POWER and RSCS do not use or set this bit.
bit NMRFLAGJ		.1	04 bit	0	none	If on, the console is not job-authorized.
bit NMRFLAGD		.1	02 bit	0	none	If on, the console is not device-authorized..
bit NMRFLAGS		.1	01 bit	0	none	If on, the console is not system-authorized.
bit NMRTYPEX		.4	FO bits	0	none	Reserved for IBM's use.
bit NMRTYPE5		.1	10 bit	0	none	If on, the sending subsystem is included in NMRMSG.
bit NMRTYPE4		.1	08 bit	0	0	Used to indicate NJE security signature. See /SIGTP/.
bit NMRTYPET		.1	04 bit	0	0	Used to indicate NJE security signature. See/SIGTP/.
bit NMRTYPEF		.1	02 bit	0	0	Always 0 for unformatted commands.
bit NMRTYPED		.1	01 bit	0	none	Reserved for IBM's use.
NMRML	3	1	binary	1	1-132	Length of the information in NMRMSG.
NMRTO	4	9	mixed	none	none	Describes the destination node for the command with the following two fields.
NMRTONOD		8	char	blanks	none	The destination node for the command.
NMRTOQUL		1	binary	0	none	The system identifier for the destination node. It is used to identify the system that should process the command. JES3 sets but does not use the byte. RSCS and POWER set it to the default value but do not use the byte.
NMROUT	D	8	char	zeros	none	The originating userid, remote id, or console id depending on the setting of NMRFLAG. AS/400 uses this field. JES3 sets the originating id to either the remote workstation or a JES3 console where the SEND command was issued. Note: The format for consoles is the same as for messages: NMRDESC=0000, NMRROUT=JES3 console number, NMRCNID=00000000. RSCS* initializes the field to the originating userid. It always contains the originating id when either NMRFLAGT or NMRFLAGW is on.
NMRFM	15	9	mixed	none	none	The following two fields describe the originating node.
NMRFMNOD		8	char	blanks	none	The originating node.
NMRFMQUL		1	binary	0	none	The system identifier of the originating node. JES3 sets the system identifier to the default and uses the field. AS/400, RSCS and POWER set it to the default value and use this field.
NMRMSG	1E	132	mixed	none	none	The command text.
NMRLEVEL	1	4 high-order bits	binary	0	none	Networking products do not use these bits for commands. The bit should be set to X‘70’.
NMRPRIO		4 low-order bits	binary	0	none	The output priority. Networking products do not use these bits for commands. The bit should contain X‘07’.
NMRTYPE	2	1	byte	0	none	Flag byte
