Syntax for controlling message management

To control message management, MPFLSTxx recognizes one parameter, msgid, and four statements: (.DEFAULT, .NO_ENTRY, MPFHCF, and .MSGIDS)

msgid allows you to specify a particular message id or prefix. This specification is also called the message processing record.
.DEFAULT allows you to specify the defaults for groups of messages listed in the MPFLSTxx parmlib member.
.NO_ENTRY allows you to specify the default processing you want for messages that are NOT identified in any of the active MPFLSTxx parmlib members. (Note that you must code the underscore (_) in the statement.)
MPFHCF allows you to indicate or flag messages that JES3 writes to the hard-copy log. Note that this statement does not begin with a period (.).
.MSGIDS NOCHANGE allows you to specify that the messages identifiers and the message processing are to be the same as those specified in the previously used concatenation of MPFLSTxx members.

The syntax of the message processing record (msgid) is:

msgid     [,AUTO  [(YES)  ]  ,RETAIN  [(YES)   ]  ,SUP [(YES)]]
          [       [(NO)   ]           [(NO)    ]       [(ALL)]]
          [       [(TOKEN)]           [(I,E,CE)]       [(NO) ]]
          [                                                   ]
          [[,USEREXIT(exitname)][/*comments*/]                ]

The syntax of the .DEFAULT statement is:

.DEFAULT  [,AUTO  [(YES)  ]  ,RETAIN  [(YES)   ]  ,SUP [(YES)]]
          [       [(NO)   ]           [(NO)    ]       [(ALL)]]
          [       [(TOKEN)]           [(I,E,CE)]       [(NO) ]]
          [                                                   ]
          [[,USEREXIT(exitname)][/*comments*/]                ]

The syntax of the MPFHCF statement is:

MPFHCF=[x/&]

The syntax for the .MSGIDS statement is:

.MSGIDS NOCHANGE

The syntax of the .NO_ENTRY statement is:

.NO_ENTRY [,AUTO  [(YES)  ] ,RETAIN [(YES)   ] ,SUP[(YES)]]
          [       [(NO)   ]         [(NO)    ]     [(ALL)]]
          [       [(TOKEN)]         [(I,E,CE)]     [(NO) ]]
          [                                               ]
          [[/*comments*/]                                 ]
