    ETA works with all supported versions of the IBM IMS system. The variable n in the ETA exit names represents the different IMS versions. For example, the n at the end of the default exit name is replaced by 5 for IMS Version 13.1 or 6 for IMS Version 14.1.

  • IMS exits:
    • IMS Logon exit (DFSLGNX0)
    • IMS Logoff exit (DFSLGFX0)
    • IMS Signon exit (DFSSGNX0)
    • IMS Signoff exit (DFSSGFX0)
    • IMS Insert exit (DFSINSX0)
    • IMS Command Authorization exit (DFSCCMD0)
    • IMS Greetings Message exit (DFSGMSG0)
    • IMS Non-Discardable Messages exit (DFSNDMX0)

You can use the ETA exit reload feature to activate new versions of an existing exit, even if the new version has a different name from the existing version of the exit.

The status report provides the same information as the /DISPLAY ETA EXITS DETAIL command:

  • Exit type
  • Exit name
  • Assembly and link edit information
  • Status (active or inactive)
  • Reload status:
    • Number of times that the exit was reloaded
    • Number of times that exit execution was delayed by a reload
    • Number of times that reload execution was delayed by exit execution
