VIO_FOR_ENDEVOR

VIO_FOR_ENDEVOR_LOG

By default, the Endevor Dependent Region creates a new VIO file (DDNAME=ENDVMSG) to be used as the Endevor transaction log for all subsequent transactions within that dependent region. The DCB attributes are:

PS,FBA,LRECL=133,UNIT=VIO,DISP=(NEW,DELETE),DSN=&MSGLOG

This file is effectively be a memory resident file, buffered by JES.

Note: During initialization there is no end-user profile in effect. That means the VIO file is owned by the started task. Therefore, the started task security profile must allow any end-user to write to this file. Endevor will OPEN the file as the transaction log. This is the default behavior.

If this causes a security violation at your site, you may configure the log to be disk-resident, provided the high-level qualifier allows universal READ/WRITE access to the log. This is allocated as:

UNIT=SYSALLDA,DSNAME=prefix.jobname.ASnnnnn.MSGLOG

Where the jobname and address space number ensures uniqueness. The prefix is taken from the ENDEVOR_DSNQUALIFIER parameter
