Description
The CUSTOM parameter enables special modifications by Rocket Software to standard execution.
You do not have to enclose a single CUSTOM setting with parentheses, for example:
CUSTOM=8
Multiple values must be specified in a list and enclosed in parentheses, for example:
CUSTOM=(1,2,3,4,6,8,9,10,11)

Using the CUSTOM=(1) parameter with date conversions
If CUSTOM=(1) is added to the User 0 CCAIN stream or set later using the RESET command, the following occurs: If a CYY format is specified for conversion and only a YY input is supplied, the conversion is successfully completed by using the CENTSPLT and BASECENT parameters.
Examples
If CUSTOM=1, BASECENT=19, and CENTSPLT=95, then:
| Print command | Results |
|---|---|
| PRINT $DATECNV('CYYDDD','YYYYMMDD','96001' | 19960101 |
| PRINT $DATECNV('CYYDDD','YYYYMMDD','196001' | 20960101 |
| PRINT $DATECNV('CYYDDD','YYYYMMDD','95001' | 19950101 |
| PRINT $DATECNV('CYYDDD','YYYYMMDD','095001' | 19950101 |
If CUSTOM=1 is omitted, BASECENT=19, and CENTSPLT=95, then:
| Print command | Results |
|---|---|
| PRINT $DATECNV('CYYDDD','YYYYMMDD','96001' | ****** |
| PRINT $DATECNV('CYYDDD','YYYYMMDD','196001' | 20960101 |
| PRINT $DATECNV('CYYDDD','YYYYMMDD','95001' | ****** |
| PRINT $DATECNV('CYYDDD','YYYYMMDD','095001' | 19950101 |
Using CUSTOM=(2)
If CUSTOM=(2) is added to the User 0 CCAIN stream or set later using the RESET command, the following occurs: If a CYY-format is specified for output conversion and the C (century) indicator is zero, then C is eliminated. This C elimination is true for all $DATE… function calls.
For example:
If CUSTOM=(2) then: PRINT $DATEJ(2) prints 97.001
But if CUSTOM=(2) is omitted, then PRINT $DATEJ(2) prints 097.001.
Using CUSTOM=(6)
Using this option you can control the messages for the LOGIN and LOGOUT commands independently.
- When CUSTOM is not set to 6, BATCH2 and IFAM2 applications cannot receive the return code from Model 204, if the command
MSGCTL M204.0353 NOTERMis issued in the Online. Model 204 sends the return code to BATCH2 and IFAM2 User Language applications as a hidden field in the LOGOUT message, and the application must receive the LOGOUT message to obtain the return code. - When CUSTOM is set to 6, you can suppress M204.0353 and leave M204.2628 active and available for a BATCH2 or IFAM2 User Language application to receive the return code from the Online.
Using CUSTOM=(8)
The CUSTOM=(8) option lets Connect★ customers use one connection for multiple users.
- If
CUSTOM=(8)is not set, RCL behaves as in releases of Model 204 before V6R1.0; users receive the following message when issuing the LOGIN command:M204.1035:COMMAND INVALID FROM PROCEDURE - If
CUSTOM=(8)is set, any commands that are invalid for RCL receive the following message:M204.2597 command COMMAND INVALID FROM AN RCL THREAD
Using CUSTOM=(9)
The CUSTOM=(9) option lets you suppress all output from all forms of the PRIORITY command.
Using CUSTOM=(10)
Including CUSTOM=10 in the CCAIN parameter stream enables you to specify a DDNAME longer than eight characters. The first eight characters will be used.
Using CUSTOM=(11)
Including CUSTOM=11 in the CCAIN parameter stream enables you to specify login passwords containing lowercase characters:
//CCAIN DD * LOGADD=200,CUSTOM=11
Using CUSTOM=(12)
When using an external authorizer (RACF, ACF2, Top Secret), if a user issues a command that requires system manager or system administrator privileges, Model 204 will test for system manager privileges for the logged-in user using the external authorizer and, if that fails, test for system administrator privileges. CUSTOM=(12) changes the order of the tests in such a case so that a user is tested for system administrator privileges before being tested for system manager privileges.
Using CUSTOM=(18)
Before Model 204 7.5, a setting of greater than 16K (16384) was allowed for the SSLIBSIZE parameter of the JANUS DEFINE command. However, in theory this should have only been necessary for SSL 2 support, as SSL 3 and TLS compliant implementations should only use SSL records of 16K or shorter. Since support for SSL 2 has been disabled in Model 204 7.5 (because SSL 2 is deprecated for its many security flaws), there is seemingly no need for SSL buffers longer than the 16K limit. So, Model 204 7.5 reduces any value greater than 16K for SSLBSIZE and SSLOBSIZE to 16K. This prevents Model 204 from pointlessly allocating more storage than is necessary for SSL buffers.
However, it appears that there are a few SSL 3 and TLS implementations in use that send SSL records longer than 16K, despite the standard's proscription against doing so. If a site communicates with such implementations, it might be necessary to set CUSTOM 18, then set SSLIBSIZE (or SSLOBSIZE) to a value greater than 16K.
