Problem

TSO GUI with a BD2 Mailbox


Using CLISTs : ISPPEL and PELXFER


How to use that UI when using a DB2 mailbox

Resolution


This interface is not supported as is, with a DB2 Mailbox.


The CLIST ISPPEL contains VSAM Mailbox allocation custom file name:

ALLOC FI(MAILBOX) SHR DA('IIIIIIII.INTERPEL.MAILBOX')


It cannot be used with DB2 Mailbox.
