1762 z/VM: CP Commands and Utilities Reference
Use XSPOOL XLIST to determine whether certain virtual machines, like selected
operational and administrative user IDs, are excluded from cross system spool
processing for input files, output files, or both.
userid
identifies the user ID to be searched in the cross system spool input or output
exclusion list.
NOMSG
suppresses the informational messages that are normally displayed as
command responses. Error messages are still displayed.
1. The purpose of the input and output exclusion lists is to prevent a user’s files
from being visible on the other systems in the CSE complex. The effect of these
lists is to exclude the virtual machines from participating in cross system
spooling.
2. If a user ID is in the input exclusion list, that user’s reader spool files must be
managed on each individual system by the user and are not shared among
associated systems.
3. For a user ID in the output exclusion list, the printer or punch spool files created
cannot be accessed or shared by the associated systems.
4. If a user ID is in the input and output exclusion lists on every system, it appears
to that user that CSE is not present.
5. At logon, the exclusion lists are searched for the user ID of the user who is
attempting to log on. If that user ID is found in one or more of the CSE
exclusion lists, the user is allowed to concurrently log onto multiple systems in
the CSE complex.
