5.60 PANTITLE (Console window title)

5.60.1 Function

PANTITLE specifies an optional console window title-bar string to be used in place of the default title
supplied by the windowing system. This option allows one to distinguish between different Hercules
sessions when running more than one instance of Hercules on the same machine.

The PANTITLE option takes effect only when the Hercules console is displayed on an ‘xterm’ terminal
(commonly used on Unix systems) or in a Windows command prompt window. Note that this option has
no effect when Hercules is run under the control of the Hercules Windows GUI since Hercules's console
window is hidden in favour of using the GUI's window instead.

The default console title is a string consisting of the following information:

“ LPARNAME – SYSTYPE * SYSNAME * SYSPLEX – System Status: colour”

SYSTYPE, SYSNAME and SYSPLEX are populated by the system call SCLP Control Program Identi-
fication. If any of these values is blank, then that field is not presented in the console title. The system
status colour has following meanings:

RED One or more CPUs are in wait state.

AMBER One or more CPUs are not running.

GREEN Everything is working correctly.

5.59 PANRATE (Console refresh rate)

5.59.1 Function

PANRATE defines the rate, in milliseconds, at which the Hercules hardware console (HMC) will be
refreshed. Please be aware that the panel refresh rate can reduce overall Hercules performance if
PANRATE is set to fast.

RESTRICTED

When PGMPRDOS is set to RESTRICTED, Hercules will stop all CPUs when a
licensed program product operating systems is detected. RESTRICTED is the
default.

operating systems normally. This parameter has no effect on Linux/390, Linux for
z/Series, or any 370-mode operating system.

If you are running Hercules under the Windows GUI a pop up window appears
during startup which must be acknowledged before the startup continuous.
