Ok, I'm trying to add an additional cardreader to mvs3.8j (turnkey),
so I can have one in ascii & ebdic each.

So far what I've tried:

added to conf/turnkey_mvs.conf (since 20c is in the sysgen as a reader):
020C 3505 localhost:3504 sockdev ebcdic trunc eof

Then changed: sys1.parmlib(jes2parm) to have:
&NUMRDRS=2
READER2 AUTH=0,CLASS=A,NOHOLD,MSGCLASS=A,PRLCL,PULCL,UNIT=20C

Unfortunately I still get this error:
$HASP412 MAXIMUM OF 1 READER(S) EXCEEDED

So, what did I forget to change?

You might be changing the wrong parmlib. Check sys1.proclib(jes2) to see
what parmlib it's pointing to.

I agree that SYS1.JES2PARM(JES2PARM) is the
correct member to change but am unsure what to
specify for &NUMRDR ?

Since 20C will be your third reader, you may
need &NUMRDR=2 or &NUMRDR=3 ?
To get ready for 30C, why not code &NUMRDR=4 ?

I just tested it and found:

1. The message about exceeding the maximum number
of readers means that MVS has more readers genned
than JES2 &NUMRDR= specifies.

2. If you change &NUMRDR=1 to &NUMRDR=4 then JES2
will define all four MVS readers as RDR1, RDR2,
RDR3, and RDR4.

3. You should add READERx statements to JES2 to
prevent weird parameters like starting each
online reader when JES2 starts.

I suggest that you code:

&NUMRDRS=4 Maximum no. of local readers
*
*
*
READER1 AUTH=0,CLASS=A,NOHOLD,MSGCLASS=C,PRLCL,PULCL,UNIT=00C,DRAIN
READER2 AUTH=0,CLASS=A,NOHOLD,MSGCLASS=C,PRLCL,PULCL,UNIT=10C,DRAIN
READER3 AUTH=0,CLASS=A,NOHOLD,MSGCLASS=C,PRLCL,PULCL,UNIT=20C,DRAIN
READER4 AUTH=0,CLASS=A,NOHOLD,MSGCLASS=C,PRLCL,PULCL,UNIT=30C,DRAIN

If you need any reader to start on JES2 start-up
remove the ",DRAIN" or add a start reader command
near the end of SYS1.JES2PARM(JES2PARM) like:
$SRDR3

I assume that any ready readers will be put
online during an MVS IPL but if not, you can add a
$VS,'VARY 20C,ONLINE - issued from JES2PARM'
a few lines before the
$SRDR3
Note: JES2 commands don't tolerate comments well
or at all.

IIRC, the correct parm is NUMRDR=

Thank you to all that answered, I now have it working (helps if you
hack the right jes2parm member). Between upping the NUMRDRS and
adding lines for all the extra readers, I'm in good shape now.

OK - this is an embarrassing question because I should know this - but what class or disposition must I show in the sysout DD so that I can use RPF to 'view' my listing ? Nothing seems to work.

//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=A,HOLD=YES

??

Always try to stop talking before people stop listening.
