Re: Changing NSINTERADDR dynamically - URGENT

2008-10-15 Thread Jacky Bright
Chris  thanks for that but I am getting some strange ouput when I am
displaying the resolver stat

F RESOLVER,DISPLAY
EZZ9298I DEFAULTTCPIPDATA - None
EZZ9298I GLOBALTCPIPDATA - None
EZZ9298I DEFAULTIPNODES - None
EZZ9298I GLOBALIPNODES - None
EZZ9304I NOCOMMONSEARCH
EZZ9293I DISPLAY COMMAND PROCESSED

The GLOBALTCPIPDATA is not at all mentioning the SYS1.TCPPARMS(TCPDATA)
member. How do I know which all DNS Servers I am using  and where is is
mentioned ..

 If you go to the description of the NSINTERADDR statement in the IP
 Configuration Reference, as with most statements, you will find a
 section Steps for modifying. However, unlike most of the statements in
 the
 manual with which I am familiar, the information here is just pathetic! All
 it
 does is point you to the MODIFY command in the IP System Administrator's
 Commands manual. It really should have gone the extra centimetre and
 mentioned that the particular flavour of MODIFY was MODIFY command—
 Resolver address space since not everyone will know that all these
 TCPIP.DATA statements fall under a topic called Resolver.

 Under MODIFY command—Resolver address space you will find the command
 John suggested described.

 John has a locally created RESOLVER started task procedure so he can start
 it
 with the S RESOLVER command. In case you do not have a locally created
 RESOLVER started task procedure, you can still stop and start the provided
 RESOLVER started task. You stop it with the P RESOLVER command, just as
 John again mentioned, but it all gets a bit subtle when you need to start
 it
 again.

 The command you need is START
 IEESYSAS.RESOLVER,PROG=EZBREINI,SUB=MSTR

 Not so very obvious is it?

 The reason for this command is twofold:

 1. You are using only default values for the resolver configuration file so
 no
 configuration file DD-statement is needed and, when no DD-statement is
 needed, the only logical statement which is needed in the started task
 procedure is

 // EXEC PGM=EZBREINI

 2. z/OS - not Communications Server - very kindly provides a generalised
 started task procedure with the name IEESYSAS which I think does absolutely
 nothing - have a look at it, I can't - except to enable some tricks
 permitted
 by JCL, one of which is to override the value of the PGM operand and
 another
 is the ability to change the procedure name - thereby frustrating some who
 have searched their procedure libraries in vain for a member named
 RESOLVER!

 This subtlety is described in the IP Configuration Guide under Managing
 the
 resolver address space.

Your shop sounds like a good candidate for HSM. If you HSM backup a file, 
the user only has to know the DSN to get the various available backup 
(backup or dump).
Without HSM, you could keep DCOLLECT 'D' records and determine VOLSER from 
that or DSS RESTORE the tape with NORUN and parse the SYSOUT to see if the 
DSN is on the tape. Since it's probably multifile tape, you'll have to 
account for this.

Thanks... My Heart issue is a bit different than the typical clogged
arteries. The procedure I am going to have done is called a hybrid maze
(sp?). Instead of breaking the chest bones they put two holes into the sides
of the chest and snip and sew from there. What surprised me from this whole
thing is that I am hospitalized for 1 week followed by 5 weeks of home bed
rest. The insurance companies are really cutting back on hospital stays. A
few years ago I was in the hospital for 6+ weeks(non related to current
heart issues) and every time they discharged me I would come back with
issues that would probably not have happened in the hospital. Which is
really funny as they refused to pay for the ambulance service because they
forced me out of the hospital. 

Good luck and thanks for the kind words.

 Anne,
 
 Thanks for that list.  It has a lot of what I am looking for, but not
 what I need right now.
 
 I am installing the DB2 Performance Monitor 8.01.0.  It has FMIDs of
 H0G981X and H27C210.  I'm trying to find the 7.01.0 FMIDs, so I can see
 where they are installed, but I don't know what they are.

Try the Product Cross Reference tool on IBMLink.

Re: TRACE table from program or from SYSMDUMP ?

Hi

Thank you again.
I found the BLSXSUMT  exec is doing  more or less the same I would like 
to achive.

It is a super exec, shame on me, never used.
It is also reading in the SYSTRACE output (so no direct access to the

Karl,

If you download DAF (Dataset Audit Facility) from CBTTAPE.org, you will find 
out exactly what is happenning to your file. Without knowing more about your 
shop, we would just be speculating.

Looks like the file is initially allocated to an overflow volume which is 
subsequently cleared of data without regard to source space allocations.
End of speculation.

Subject: Space problem

Hi

Can anyone please help on this one.
I have a user who allocates a file with CYL,(100,100)). The file then gets
closed and opened 780 odd times and data is added to it with each open. He
has tried it with different file names. The SMS DATACLASS and STORAGE
CLASS do not allow for space to be released and force the allocation to be
one a single volume. Some where during all this space is been release because
the step failes with an SB37. The file has changed to CYL,(1,1)) and is in 16
extents. When allowing the file to have multi volume access it works, but
changes to CYL,(1,1)) and ends up been in 39 extents.
My question is this, is SMS releasing the space or MVS or the program?

Kind Regards

Re: Acessing LDAP data on other servers from z/OS

When you don't know where to start, a good place to start by default is the 
IBM redbooks. Enter LDAP as a search word on

http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/

and see what takes your fancy. Understanding LDAP - Design and 
Implementation jumps out but there are plenty of other hits - an amazing

From time to time I work with a customer who accesses an LDAP server from

Re: Acessing LDAP data on other servers from z/OS

2008-10-15 Thread Denis Gäbler
 Hi Andy,

there are C and Java based samples on the web, which can be used to create a 
Module or Java class that runs on z/OS and connects to LDAP on other plattform.
No LDAP Server on z/OS and RACF is required for this, because you simply have 
LDAP client code running on z/OS.
You can then call the module or execute the Java class from your existing 
applications, Java might require a wrapper module depending on your runtime 
environment and compilers you have available.
Maybe this is what you are looking for.

Denis.

Re: Acessing LDAP data on other servers from z/OS

2008-10-15 Thread Wolfgang Schäfer

Hello Andy,
z/OS comes with an LDAP client which is of course hidden in the unix system 
services :-)


If you enter the command 'ldapsearch from the shell without parameters it 
gives you some syntax synopsis ... probably the last lines are the most 
important ones:


Refer to IBM Tivoli Directory Server Client Programming for z/OS, 
Document Num

ber: SA23-2214, for complete documentation
(this is on z/OS 1.9)

But since ldapsearch is something like a standard in the world, google could 
be your friend as well to learn the (for me) strange looking LDAP query 
language ...


Cheers from Germany

you can run SDSF from batch and use it with a combination of SDSF batch

As mentioned by others, many use SDSF in batch. Another possibility, for the

If you have BLSXSUMT on your system, you have the Level 2 toolkit.  Go

Re: Changing NSINTERADDR dynamically - URGENT

2008-10-15 Thread Chris Mason
Jacky

With the introduction of the resolver function a few releases back, you got a 
new configuration data set called the resolver setup data set. It is the only 
data set which is used directly by the resolver procedure and, as I indicated 
before, it is optional since you can accept all the default values. The 
statements in this data set, even by default, refer in turn to the TCPIP.DATA
[1] data set and the means by which you have defined it.

Fear not, the new specifications you have entered into your TCPIP.DATA set 
are now in effect. The process of refreshing the resolver procedure causes 
the TCPIP.DATA data set to be revisited. The description under MODIFY 
command—Resolver address space in the IP System Administrator’s 
Commands manual specifically assures us that the TCPIP.data information is 
refreshed.

I tried to see if there was a command in the IP System Administrator’s 
Commands which showed the current NSINTERADDR statement specifications - 
and failed! I do know that, when you use the NSLOOKUP command, you are 
told the name server - or, I believe, name servers - which are referenced in 
order to resolve the query. I also know that you get typically far more 
information than you thought you needed when you slip the TRACE RESOLVER 
statement into your TCPIP.DATA data set.

As this is the first time you have encountered the revised resolver function, 
you have some reading to do. You should start with the 
section Understanding resolvers in Chapter 2, Configuration overview in the 
IP Configuration Guide manual. You will need a quick visit to the UNIX System 
Services Planning manual in order to find out precisely how to get your own 
RESOLVER procedure which will enable you to specify your own resolver setup 
statements, the ones you find so confusing!

Of course, as usual, you will find details about the statements in the IP 
Configuration Reference manual - just before the TCPIP.DATA statements are 
explained.

[1] You are probably aware that the TCPIP.DATA data set can be specified in 
a number of ways, including as SYS1.TCPPARMS(TCPDATA). The way to refer 
to the data set generically is to use the original name used by TCP/IP for VM, 
the product from which CP/IP for MVS was derived which, in turn became the 
Communications Server IP component.

 If you go to the description of the NSINTERADDR statement in the IP
 Configuration Reference, as with most statements, you will find a
 section Steps for modifying. However, unlike most of the statements in
 the
 manual with which I am familiar, the information here is just pathetic! All
 it
 does is point you to the MODIFY command in the IP System Administrator's
 Commands manual. It really should have gone the extra centimetre and
 mentioned that the particular flavour of MODIFY was MODIFY command—
 Resolver address space since not everyone will know that all these
 TCPIP.DATA statements fall under a topic called Resolver.

 Under MODIFY command—Resolver address space you will find the 
command
 John suggested described.

 John has a locally created RESOLVER started task procedure so he can 
start
 it
 with the S RESOLVER command. In case you do not have a locally created
 RESOLVER started task procedure, you can still stop and start the provided
 RESOLVER started task. You stop it with the P RESOLVER command, just as
 John again mentioned, but it all gets a bit subtle when you need to start
 it
 again.

 The command you need is START
 IEESYSAS.RESOLVER,PROG=EZBREINI,SUB=MSTR

 Not so very obvious is it?

 The reason for this command is twofold:

 1. You are using only default values for the resolver configuration file so
 no
 configuration file DD-statement is needed and, when no DD-statement is
 needed, the only logical statement which is needed in the started task
 procedure is

 // EXEC PGM=EZBREINI

 2. z/OS - not Communications Server - very kindly provides a generalised
 started task procedure with the name IEESYSAS which I think does 
absolutely
 nothing - have a look at it, I can't - except to enable some tricks
 permitted
 by JCL, one of which is to override the value of the PGM operand and
 another
 is the ability to change the procedure name - thereby frustrating some who
 have searched their procedure libraries in vain for a member named
 RESOLVER!

 This subtlety is described in the IP 

Acessing LDAP data on other servers from z/OS

We have some LDAP servers running under Lotus Notes on AIX boxes and we
want to check/validate some data held on z/OS against them.  The validation
process must run on z/OS.

I've no real experience of using LDAP.

I'm aware that z/OS can run a LDAP server but that is not quite what we
want.

Is it possible to access LDAP data on another box from the USS side of z/OS
and how would one start??   Any pointers or manuals to read??

Space problem

2008-10-15 Thread Karl Abrahams
Hi

Can anyone please help on this one.
I have a user who allocates a file with CYL,(100,100)). The file then gets 
closed and opened 780 odd times and data is added to it with each open. He 
has tried it with different file names. The SMS DATACLASS and STORAGE 
CLASS do not allow for space to be released and force the allocation to be 
one a single volume. Some where during all this space is been release because 
the step failes with an SB37. The file has changed to CYL,(1,1)) and is in 16 
extents. When allowing the file to have multi volume access it works, but 
changes to CYL,(1,1)) and ends up been in 39 extents. 
My question is this, is SMS releasing the space or MVS or the program? 

Kind Regards
Karl Abrahams

Re: Capture Job information fom spool

2008-10-15 Thread Ulrich Krueger
Rajeev,
In addition to SDSF, as others have mentioned, you could write your own
application / Clist / REXX Exec using either the standard external SYSOUT
writer procedure or the TSO OUTPUT command.

On the other hand, if you have money to spend, you can also look for
software to buy. There are applications out there on the market that have
already invented that wheel for you. These applications generally are
called SYSOUT Archivers. Products from Companies like CA or MacKinney
Systems come to mind, but there are a few others, too. 
And a search of the CBTTAPE might also locate something you could use.

Tiered storage and FATA drives

2008-10-15 Thread Marc Van Hoof
At my company, we are looking at FATA drives to put our HSM ML1 (1 year 
period) data on it .
Does someone have some experience doeing this ?

Today we do not use ML1 and write directly to ML2 , NATIVE tapedrives from 
SUN/STK. 
Current drives are fast enough to do the HSM migrate and recall work. But we 
are running out of slots in the robot and want to replace current tapedrives 
with new K1000 drives from SUN/STK.
This drives can write much more data to tape (capacity drives), but are also 
slower . We also want to eliminate the native drives for HSM work because 
HSM can not put enough work on the drives due to its 16K blocksize 
limitation (IBM has no plans to change this in the nearby future).

So ... we are investigating FATA and you ?

RES: ADRDSSU Question

2008-10-15 Thread ITURIEL DO NASCIMENTO NETO
Hi Sergio,

ADRDSSU itself does not do that. To do what you want using ADRDSSU you have to 
create 
a program that calls ADRDSSU, and this program must handle the information. You 
can use
UIM of DFSMSdfp to obtaim the information from ADRDSSU and manipulate some 
control blocks 
to discover the external dataset name. Write these information to a repository 
(VSAM) so
every dataset backed up with your front end ADRDSSU will be stored associated 
with the
external dataset name.

If you want to be fancy, you can create na ISPF interface to restore any 
dataset automatically.

|Hello List,
| 
|We try help a production people here, and wrote a REXX

|Here, in out installation, the userid, need know, the volume 
|where the file was when the backup was executed, and, in the 
|dsname of backup, have a variable with volid, and the date 
|where the backup was made.
|So, the REXX routine, display a list of DSNAMES of Backup, 
|using the LMDINIT / LMDLIST, that was a good idea gove by Rob Zenuck.
|After ask here, I heard that a program utility that do a 
|backup (ADRDSSU), don't know what the files that exist on a 
|cartridge backup, and , for this reason, if the userid don't 
|know the volume, is impossible restore a file, at least than 
|read volume by volume .
|Normally, Utilits of IBM, don't have a control of backup from 
|files, I remember, years ago, that worked with DYNAM/T under 
|VSE, and there, We can restore a file, because the Product 
|have a catalog, that manage this.
|I know very little about ADRDSSU, anybody, know any way, that 
|search the cartridge Backup's from locate the files easier ?

2008-10-15 Thread Howard Rifkind
How can I trace back and find out which IEASYSxx member the system was IPL'ed 
with?
 
If you don't key in a member name at IPL time doesn't the system pick IEASYS00?
 
Thanks.

Re: OUTREC - SHORT RECORD

 While reading VB file Iam getting the following error

 OUTREC - SHORT RECORD

 my SYSIN is
 SORT FIELDS=COPY
 OUTREC FIELDS=(1:1,6,3X,10:7,1491)

 If I change SYSIN as below
 SORT FIELDS=COPY

 it works fine.

 What might be the reason...?
 Cant I select record from 7 to 1491...?

 Regards,
 Ram Balaji.S.
 (Dying Hard to explore MainFrames)

(I'm answering your question from a DFSORT viewpoint, but I think
the same thing applies to Syncsort.)

When you use 7,1491 in your OUTREC statement, it says that you expect
to have VB input records that are at least 1497 bytes long.  The error
message indicates you have a record shorter than 1497 bytes.  When you
use 7,30, it says that you expect to have VB input records that are at
least 36 bytes long.  Since that works fine, you don't have a record
shorter than 36 bytes.

If you want to copy the input bytes from position 7 to the end of the
record, use:

  OUTREC FIELDS=(1:1,6,10:7)

If you want to copy the input bytes from positions 7-1497 and pad any
missing bytes with blanks, you can use:

   OUTREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=INIT,BUILD=(1:1,6,10:7,1491))

question about Oracle on the mainframe

2008-10-15 Thread Kurt Eastwood
Hello,
 
We run z/OS 1.8 but no Oracle on the mainframe. We have some Unix machines 
running Oracle apps. We are considering exploring utilizing Oracle on the 
mainframe and moving some Oracle apps off the Unix machines to the mainframe 
with the intent of saving on the Oracle licenses, among other things.
 
Has anyone gone this route? Moving Oracle apps off Unix machines  and onto the 
mainframe?
 
If so, did you save money? Improve service?
 
Any problems doing this?
 
Any expenses that make this not feasible?
 
Is anyone aware of any books or documentation that gives information on doing 
this?
 
Thanks to everyone in advance.
Kurt

Yes, but don't be fooled by the IEASYS list specifying only 1 suffix if it
isn't 00.   The last time I checked, IEASYS00 was still required to be 
somewhere in the concatenation  - even if you prompt with
IEA101A SPECIFY SYSTEM PARAMETERS FOR ...

Otherwise you get messages:

IEA301I IEASYS00 NOT FOUND IN PARMLIB 
IEA324I SYSP INPUT TERMINATED IN IEASYS00 
IEA336A RESPECIFY PARAMETERS OR PRESS ENTER TO CANCEL 

The doc isn't completely clear on this unless you read all of it.  For 
example I still see this in the init  tuning reference:

You can do one of the following to specify a parameter list other than
IEASYS00 for an IPL:  

That would be more correct if it said in addition to IEASYS00.  

So don't delete IEASYS00 even if you don't see it in a D IPLINFO.

Are you aware that Oracle on z/OS is functionally stabilized at release
10? I.e. the newer Oracle releases will not be ported to run under z/OS at
all. As of right now, release 10 remains supported on z/OS.

As another said, I've read of a number of z/Linux users using Oracle quite

Re: question about Oracle on the mainframe

2008-10-15 Thread Staller, Allan
We are looking hard at this. Based on the number of servers we have to be 
consolidated, there are significant potential savings available.

We are at the POC stage. I.E. The financials have been reviewed and look 
promising. IBM is willing to make IFLs and z/VM avail on a trial basis at no 
charge for evaluation purposes (90 days IIRC). Contact your IBM rep for details.

While I have no personal experience with actual deployment at this time, I know 
of some respected individuals at other companies that have performed at least a 
partial consolidation and are extremely happy with the results.

HTH,

P.S. DB2 can be a substitute for ORACLE in this case.

That is my understanding. z/OS goes up to rel 10 only. z/Linux is still
fully supported by the newer releases as are the other UNIX type boxes. I
guess z/OS UNIX is just different enough to require too much porting for the
demand.

Re: question about Oracle on the mainframe

2008-10-15 Thread Farley, Peter x23353
PMFJI here, but one crucial misunderstanding you may have -- z/Linux
does *not* run under z/OS.  z/Linux runs in its own virtual machine
under z/VM (or on a bare LPAR), z/OS runs in its own separate LPAR
(though you *can* run z/OS in a virtual machine under z/VM, you probably
wouldn't want to for performance reasons).

IOW, Oracle will run in a separate z/Linux under z/VM in the LPAR that
z/VM runs on (can be on an IFL).  You will still need communications
between the Oracle under z/Linux and your z/OS applications just as you
do today, but the communications can be internal to the CEC instead of
over an external network.

Re: question about Oracle on the mainframe

2008-10-15 Thread Hoesly, Bret
Yes, Oracle 10g is the last release that will run under z/OS on a mainframe.  
We just recently upgraded to v10.2.0.3.0 and are running it under z/OS v1.9.  
Oracle v10.2 is the terminal release for z/OS and premier support for it ends 
in July 2012, although extended support after that indefinitely for a price.  
If you ever want to go to v11, it can't be done on the mainframe unless you run 
it, as others have mentioned, under a z/linux-z/VM partition (which I'm hoping 
we'll get to try out sometime).

HTH,

That is my understanding. z/OS goes up to rel 10 only. z/Linux is still
fully supported by the newer releases as are the other UNIX type boxes. I
guess z/OS UNIX is just different enough to require too much porting for the
demand.

Re: Simple VTAM-Question?

2008-10-15 Thread Chris Mason
Michael

I think you need the MODIFY TABLE command. Something like

F net,TABLE,OPTION=LOAD,NEWTAB=new_name

I am assuming you have revised the table so that it has the same name as it 
did previously.

Note that, as always for a MODIFY command, you need to use the name of 
the started task procedure, in this case the VTAM started task procedure 
which not all installations call NET.

Here are a couple of extracts from the MODIFY TABLE command text in the 
SNA Operations manual:

quote

Load a table to replace an existing table (other than a filter table):

MODIFY procname,TABLE,OPTION=LOAD,NEWTAB=new_table_name
(,OLDTAB=old_table_name)

/quote

quote

- F TABLE,OPT=LOAD

Allows you to replace old_table_name, which is in use, with new_table_name, 
which is currently not in use, or to reload a table that is in use. All 
resources 
currently associated with the old table are re-associated with the new table.

Note: If old_table_name is the current value of the DYNMODTB start option, 
the value of the DYNMODTB start option is changed to new_table_name.

If OLDTAB is omitted, it is assumed to be the same as NEWTAB.

/quote
 
You need to refresh the library lookaside (LLA) address space for modules 
other than modules from partitioned data sets in the VTAMLIB concatenation. 
The MODIFY command to which I pointed you above suffices.

As far as the Unformatted System Services (USS - used correctly, of course!) 
module used by the TN3270 address space is concerned, I'm afraid I can't find 
any particular description of how that can be replaced. I suspect that you 
need to issue a VARY TCPIP,tn3270proc,OBEYFILE command against the 
TN3270 PROFILE - at least the BEGINVTAM/ENDVTAM block - in order to have 
the TN3270 server refresh a load module referenced by the USSTCP 
parameter. I hope someone who knows for sure can confirm or correct this 
guess.

Well, welcome to a path to becoming a VTAM specialist. There are fewer and 
fewer these days.

This drives can write much more data to tape (capacity drives), but are also

Given that many disk files have block sizes larger than 16K, could you

After we shutdown CICS or IPL system this frame will increase back. 

Question:
1. What happen if the out frame? 
2. Any tool, setup, Rexx or Fixes can to reclaim the unused frame?
3. If we need to IPL OS/390 or shutdown CICS system regularly? (i.e Once a
month)

Any other suggestion is much appreciated

Thanks in advance for all reply.

It's not approx -- it is 90%

In fairness to Radoslaw, approximately is fair to say, at least due to
rounding errors at specific capacity points. (MSU values are whole
numbers.) But there is an underlying mathematical exactness, so Ted is
correct, too. :-)

As for the impact of Technology Dividend(s) in your particular situation,
that varies.
