RACF, Cloning Userids ADCD
Hi, On the general question of is there a sure-fire way of cloning a userid within RACF, I cannot provide an answer but am able to offer insight I think based on experience with the ADCD and a smattering of knowledge gained in such an environment. Remember that Userids in RACF belong to Groups and if access authorities to other resources such as ACCTNUM, TSOPROC, JCL, OPE, Data sets etc., are granted at the group level, then any new Userid added to that group automatically picks up the same access authorities. Unfortunately the Userids IBM provided with the ADCD system were granted access to resources at the Userid rather Group level. (Check the Access List for ACCTNUM/ACCT# and a list of Userids prefixed by ADCD will be shown.) This inhibits simple cloning, whereas Group access aids it. One lesson which was given to me by a colleague was to switch from using the ISPF/RACF panels and revert to raw ISPF commands, held in a PDS member and executed via batch TSO. This provides both a visible record of what has been done, and the capability to reproduce the same if required.

Re: Assembler to C or C++ Conversion
Has anyone run across a software package that will successfully convert Assembler code to working C or C++ code or, alternatively, allow Assembler code to run in a server-based environment more or less as is (much like MicroFocus does for COBOL code)? Thanks in advance - John Bachiochi John, all If you need the speed of native code and portability, then check out http://www.smltd.com/. They offer mainframe assembler to C and COBOL. However any such conversion requires extensive testing and both the initial conversion and the support of the generated code my be expensive particularly if you are going to continue to maintain the origianl code also. Another option to consider is to use the z390 portable mainframe assembler and emulator SOA approach. The latest z390 v1.4.01 with z9 and z10 opcode support can run SOA services on any Windows or Linux server. Client applications in any language running on a TCP/IP connected network can then invoke those z390 mainframe assembler services via TCP/IP sockets messaging. There is a demo that installs with z390 that does the following: 1. First the demo main program which calls two separate subroutines to perform 2 different integer and decimal floating point numeric calculation services can be assembled, linked, and executed using z390 standard static linking. Run soa\demo\DEMOSTD.BAT on Windows or Linux. 2. Second the same 3 demo source code programs can be automatically assembled and linked into an SOA application with the following generated executable components: a. DEMOMAIN.390 - executable application main client program linked with generated stub CSECT for each called service which dynamically links to client soa manager. b. DEMOCMGR.390 - generated client SOA manager for this application which packages service requests into TCP/IP socket messages, sends them to SOA service manager, waits for response, moves updated parameter field results back to original parameter areas, and returns to caller. c. DEMOSMGR.390 - generated service SOA manager for this application which can run on any Windows or Linux server on the TCP/IP netowrk and waits for TCP/IP socket connections, receives requests, loads service modules if not already loaded, calls service module, returns updated paramters to caller. d. DEMOSUB1.390 - subroutine 1 linked as separate loadable service. e. DEMOSUB2.390 - subroutine 2 linked as separate loadable service. 3. You can generate this demo SOA applicaton from the 3 source programs and a single SOA generator definition macro call which drives the macro driven generation process. Once generated, you can run this demo on any combination of Windows and/or Linux client and server processors. For example, you can start the DEMOSMGR.390 server program running on your Windows XP/Vista desktop and then run one or more copies of the client appication DEMOCMGR.390 on your wireless laptop on the same wireless router as your desktop to provide TCP/IP connectivity. You can pick the port number you want to use at generation time. Of course, you also can run both the server and the client on the same PC as well.

Re: Assembler to C or C++ Conversion

In all such conversions the interfaces and the quality of the sourse code are the two foremost, major issues. Your Assembler code may depend on information contained in OS control blocks, take advantage of various features of the OS, the file/data services, its memory mangement, exception handling, ... No matter what, these issues require human intervention. Most older Assembler programs are of very poor quality. Without a lot of pre and post conversion cleanup, (re-) structuring, the computer generated C code will be incomprehensible (to most humans). As a pre-requisite I'd consider pre-conversion cleaanup as Stage-1 (there are a number of us who do things like that for a living...). Then I'd re-evaluate my options. For example, I view Don Higgin's approach as a far superior option than the prospect of maintaining artificial C code full of booby traps. Andreas F.

Re: ISPF Backup Files
I believe that the way you described the backup datasets is the way it works. If your TSO session times out, and you're in the middle of an edit session, when you next do an ISPF edit, you get a message saying you were editing such and such, and have the option to resume. If you resume your edit, and then exit normally, the dataset goes away. At least thats the way it worked in the past, with z/OS 1.2. Eric Thompson wrote: I was going through all the files associated with one of my TSO IDs and I found a number of ISPF Backup datasets that have been archived. How or why would these get orphaned (if they have been archived, I consider them orphaned)? The format of the names is: userid.ISRn.BACKUP which matches the format for current edit backup datasets (I'm currently editing source and one of the backups won't let me look at it, because it is in use). I have recalled the orphaned ones and I can look in them. I can see some of them are for source that I have updated (and there are 2-3 backups for a member), and ultimately promoted. It would seem to me that should I have lost a TSO session through timeout or session lost or some such, that the next time I went into edit I should have been prompted for edit recovery and then these files should have gone away upon successful termination of the edit session.

Re: Cloning a RACF user profile

I challenge you or anyone else on this list who can, to get a list of connect groups for their own userid and several sysprogs with the same job function.

The same could happen with ACF2, but in my experience I don't see ACF2 rules being written down to the specific userid level in the UID string. --unsnip-- True, there might be some differences.

IBM Debug Tool
I am looking at converting to IBM Debug Tool V8.1 (Ent Cobol 3.4, soon to be 4.1). My first impression is that Debug Tool puts debug control into the load module (or points to it in the case of an external symbol dictionary). That seems incompatible with our development strategy where a program is compiled once and then promoted through the hierarchy. My concern is promoting bloated and unoptimized modules into production or needing to share symbol files across environments (i.e. test and QA) especially when those programs might have different working storage. Does this product dictate compiling at each stage with a final NOTEST compile going into production?

Re: MVS initiated FTP to Windows
Not possible with standard Windows because it don't come with a FTP server. Initiation and control of FTP always comes from the client. Therefore, your z/os job would run as a client (see FTPCDATA) and you'd need a FTP server on Windows. It follows that you'd need logon credentials for the server.

In your TCPIP configuration, you have have RESTRICTLOWERPORTS in the TCPCONFIG statement? If so that means that any address space which wants to use a port number 1024 (which 175 is), must either have a UNIX UID(0) or must be authorized in the PORT section of the TCPIP parameter. In your case you would have something like: PORT ... existing entries 175 TCP JES* ... maybe more entries You can either: (1) assign an ID with a UID or 0 to the JES2S001 started task or (2) do an obeyfile in TCPIP to allow JES* address spaces access to port 175 or (3) perhaps you could use a port 1024. To do this latter, try issuing the JES2 command: $TSOCKET(...),PORT= where ... is the socket name subscript and is some unused port number 1024.

Re: MVS initiated FTP to Windows
Dave; In order to have a Windows workstation accept incoming FTP, in other words Windows as an FTP server, you have to run the Windows IIS service or the equivalent. IIS is an optional component of XP and Vista. There are settings in IIS for starting an FTP server and HTTP server, maybe others. It's been a few years since I worked with it. IIRC it's pretty east to setup, though since this was the part of Windows through which many breaches of security occurred, the security access part of it might be more stringent. It is not setup by default when Windows is installed. FTP has 2 sides to it: A client and a server. The initiator of the request is the client and it contacts a server on a well known IP port (21 is the default). In your case you want MVS to be the client and Windoze to be the server, so you need a server running on it somewhere. HTH, John R.

Re: MVS initiated FTP to Windows
Huh? What version of Windows are we talking about??? Both the Windows machines on my desktop are running a built-in ftp server. One is XP Pro, and the other is Vista Enterprise Edition. The ftp server is not installed by default, but it is included in the optional components, for Windows 2000 Workstation, XP Pro and Vista Business/Enterprise. Go to Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, Windows Optional Features, and look under Internet Information Services. The ftp server will be first item on the list. You can certainly ftp from the host to the ftp server in Windows - I've done it. No special configuration is required on Windows, it just works. Obviously you need something to act as an ftp client on the host (such as 'ftp' under Open MVS). The ftp server for Windows 98 had to be downloaded separately from microsoft.com, but I hope no-one is still running Win98 :-).

Something about stored procedures and separate address spaces. The FM's I've searched don't give me a clear picture of what is what. We don't use stored procedures, so I am a little confused why we have set up that envionment. Can someone point me to a FM that will lead me to the path of enlightenment? Hal: you might check the DB2 chapter in the Redbook System Programmer's guide to: Workload Manager (SG24-6472). There's likely a chapter, or two, in the DB2 Admin guide as well. Maybe he can tell where he's reading from. If you're not using stored procedures, he might be doing DDF ie. JDBC, etc. DB2 stored procedures are moving from being run in the DB2 SP a/s to separate WLM address spaces ie. DB2 SPAS is now deprecated. (your para 1 except DB2 v6, 7, 8) For WLM managed, stored procedures, you need a WLM ApplEnv so the a/s will get started/stopped per demand. (I believe that it's 2hrs inactivity before the last STC disappears.) We use the STDATA in Racf Class(Facility) to provide the proper userid. friendly *Warning*: don't include NumTcbs in the ApplEnv Parm as shown in examples. Instead, leave it for the JCL proc where it can be easily changed without requiring a WLM policy activation each time. Only place items that are invariant (rock solid, unchanging) such as DB2SSN and ApplEnv. ps. I believe there are sample stored procedures - and maybe a Rexx builder - provided with DB2.

Re: MVS initiated FTP to Windows
Ok, I'll refine my comment to 'It is not possible to just FTP to a Windows box; it doesn't come with a FTP server *installed*. More, there are a lot of security hoops to jump through.' Screwed up the grammar anyway :-) Interestingly enough, we just danced with this bear, and IIS never came up in any conversations. Perhaps due to its horrible security record. Or perhaps the encryption issue.

Ah.. But it does! All you need to do is install IIS on your workstation, configure it and somehow get the IP address of the WS to the host and use that to FTP your files down! This is how I get all my performance, and other, files down to my WS every day; which are then automagically processed by a few Excel spreadsheets. You start with Add/Remove Programs, then to Add/Remove Windows Components, select IIS, then specifically, Common Files, FTP Service and the IIS Snap-In. You should be able to find the IIS install in your I386 directory. Once installed you need to configure IIS to point to the incoming directory and a couple of other pieces of information.

What version of Windows are we talking about??? Both the Windows machines on my desktop are running a built-in ftp server. One is XP Pro, and the other is Vista Enterprise Edition. The ftp server is not installed by default, but it is included in the optional components, for Windows 2000 Workstation, XP Pro and Vista Business/Enterprise. Go to Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, Windows Optional Features, and look under Internet Information Services. The ftp server will be first item on the list. You can certainly ftp from the host to the ftp server in Windows - I've done it. No special configuration is required on Windows, it just works. Obviously you need something to act as an ftp client on the host (such as 'ftp' under Open MVS). The ftp server for Windows 98 had to be downloaded separately from microsoft.com, but I hope no-one is still running Win98 :-). NT 4.0 I can't remember - but again, NT 4 is long out of support by Microsoft. Hope it helps, Andrew It is? I didn't know that because I only use Windows (XP) at work, and desktop services did not install any kind of ftp servicer. So I stupidity assumed it was only on the server version of Windows.

Re: MVS initiated FTP to Windows
That's just the native FTP client piece. We also need the server piece, and most of us also need the encryption pieces. On top of that, you'll need some security pieces.

The newer alternative is called... *** WLM-managed stored procedure address space *** A set of one or more WLM-managed stored procedure (started task) address spaces of a given name are known as an application environment.
