SER9500 SERENQ

Data set enqueue and dequeue routine. Performs serialization for SER appl's data set updates. Qname may be any of the following:

  • SPFEDIT - Normal data set enqueue (with or without member name). Used for serialization with ISPF and other SerNet sub-application functions.
  • SYSIEWLP - Load library (data set name only) serialization with Linkage Editor.
  • SYSDSN - MVS data set serialization. Same as allocation with DISP=OLD.
  • CHGMAN - Change Man datasets. ENQ may be either exclusive or shared.

For SPFEDIT, SYSIEWLP and SYSDSN the enqueue is always performed for exclusive control. If multiple data sets are requested via a data set name address list, and exclusive control was previously obtained for some of those data sets, the corresponding addresses in the caller's list are cleared. This same list can then be passed back for the dequeue function and those data sets will not be dequeued.
