General Servers

General servers are intended to process DO KSL and DO TSO statements which either do not specify a preset environment or which specify a preset environment for which a Special server has not been defined. These DO statements are sent to the general queue shared by all General servers, and execution is performed by the first General server which becomes available.

DO SHELL statements with no IMMEDIATE=Y parameter specified (the default) are also processed by General servers.

The server always calls the environment procedure to perform initialization. After server initialization and the execution of the DO KSL, DO SHELL, or DO TSO statements, the server calls upon the environment procedure to perform a TERM operation, thus terminating the preset environment.
