Input Parameters

Input parameters for the function routine are:

SSOB
SSIB
SSVI

SSOB Contents: The caller sets the following fields in the SSOB control block on input:

Field Name: Description
SSOBID: Identifier 'SSOB'
SSOBLEN: Length of the SSOB (SSOBHSIZ) control block
SSOBFUNC: SSI function Code 54 (SSOBSSVI)
SSOBSSIB: Address of the SSIB control block or zero (if this field is zero, the life-of-job SSIB is used). See Subsystem Identification Block (SSIB) for more information on the life-of-job SSIB.
SSOBINDV: Address of the function dependent area (SSVI control block)

Set all other fields in the SSOB control block to binary zeros before issuing the IEFSSREQ macro.

SSIB Contents: If you don't use the life-of-job SSIB, the caller must provide an SSIB and set the following fields in the SSIB control block on input:

Field Name: Description
SSIBID: Identifier 'SSIB'
SSIBLEN: Length of the SSIB (SSIBSIZE) control block
SSIBSSNM: Subsystem name — name of the subsystem to which this Request Subsystem Version Information call is directed.
It is either the master subsystem, a JES2 (primary or secondary) subsystem, a JES3 subsystem, or a user-supplied or vendor-supplied subsystem.

Set all other fields in the SSIB control block to binary zeros before issuing the IEFSSREQ macro.

SSVI Contents: The input information in the SSVI control block is contained in the following area mapped within the SSVI control block:

Fixed header input section

The caller sets these fields before issuing the IEFSSREQ macro.
