The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
What you're describing is not a pointer.

You mean pointers set in one IPL remaining valid on the next one? You
sure aren't asking for much, are you?
the example illustrates the improvements that can be made to SLS, but
which IBM has not been doing the last 10 yrs. pointers should be 64 bytes,
should contain a GUID to make them truly permanent. If a system pointer
contained a guid it could be used to call a program across the network.
