the same size, the first file is cleared, and the
information is redirected to the first file. Using two files
means that console logging can be active for an
extended period of time, with a maximum disk space
usage of twice the value specified here.
The following parameters should all be left with their default settings.
They are used only in special cases. For most installations, the default
values are correct and should not be changed.
ebcdic_newline
If the workstation’s output devices expect data in
EBCDIC format and so require data to be passed
through without EBCDIC-ASCII translation, set this
option to YES to indicate that any new-line characters
inserted by the workstation should be EBCDIC and not
ASCII new-line characters. Otherwise, set it to NO to
insert ASCII new-line characters.
logon_retry
This option causes RJE to retry sending a logon string
after a host terminated session is reestablished. In
some situations, a link outage may occur due to a host
shutdown. When the link is reestablished, RJE will
send a logon string. Normally, if the application (such
as JES2) is available, the session will be reestablished.
If the application is not available at that time, RJE will
not resend the logon string.
To have RJE resend the logon string periodically until
it succeeds, set the logon_retry option to YES. This
option applies only if the workstation is defined to send
its logon string at startup (by setting the send_logon
parameter). Note that when this option is set to YES,
messages will be logged to the audit log file each time
the workstation attempts to contact the host. If the
display_sscp_messages option below is set, messages
may also be written to the RJE console log file.
Frequent logon retries (for example, because of an
unreliable communications link), may result in a large
amount of data being written to these files. To avoid
losing data when the files wrap, be sure to allow the
maximum specified file sizes for these files.
