Re: Observations and Questions About Our Platform : Lenovo
Why does IBM have their first question for Lenova, when they don't even own the PC line anymore. It is not an issue of the biggest moneymaker. Lenovo is probably first because they get called more about Lenovo products than about z/OS software problems. Btw. Lenovo is still in IBM's products list on their frontpage. Be glad that you can call about z/OS or maybe mainframes. My last two calls were about the service processor of my 3745's. ( yup, still got a few ) I spoke to every department of IBM's except the right one. As soon as I mention that the service processor is a PC belonging to mainframe network equipment, they transfer me to either Lenovo Laptops, Desktops, Midrange or to the networks-department. At least it taught me to just tell them that my 3745 has a problem and then wait for an engineer to call. -- Maarten - ATTENTION: The information in this electronic mail message is private and confidential, and only intended for the addressee.

Re: Changing NSINTERADDR dynamically - URGENT
You were correct. Thanks for that. with NSLOOKUP I have tested. What is surprising that I did not have to REFRESH the RESOLVER. I just changed the SYS1.TCPPARMS(TCPDATA) NSINTERADDR address and then issued the TSO NSLOOKUP and it was taking that new IP address value. Whatever IP address I mentioned same was being queried while performing operations related to NSLOOKUP. I could not find anything like this in manual. My OS is z/OS 1.7, is it that for 1.7 you just need to change the NSINTERADDR parm it will work ? No need to refresh RESOLVER. JAcky On Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 10:34 AM, Chris Mason [EMAIL PROTECTED]wrote: 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.

Thomas Kern wrote, re guest migration: I thought the early prototype of this was the Single-System-Image code written at University of Waterloo back in the early 1980's. Now why would you think that? Just because Romney wrote both of them... ;-) The SSI SWITCH command was a lot of fun. It moved a VM from one machine in an SSI cluster (only they weren't called clusters back then) to another; we would do this so we could reIPL one of the boxes, or for load-balancing. The problems were somewhat different from today: CP was less well-structured; bandwidth between machines was lower; but guests were even smaller than the bandwidth difference, so it was practical to simply suspend the guest, move it, and resume. That's less advisable with an 8GB guest, even over a fast OSA, so the current prototype does some interesting stuff to move memory, then go back and re-move (not remove!) pages that changed during the first move. It does this several times until it either gets a clean pass or throws up its hands, stuns the guest, and moves the remaining pages. So you can move an only moderately active, very large guest without noticeable disruption. Moving between CECs is an interesting concept; I'd imagine that getting the functionality out there within a CEC would be the first priority for obvious reasons, and then the inter-CEC problem could be examined. A reasonable implementation would require a VLAN across the CECs for network transparency. For extra credit, while the guest is being containerized, it might be nice to be able to store a copy of the state, a la the old VMSAVE facility. I'm not sure how useful this actually is, since any changes to data on DASD wouldn't be reflected in the state, so the saved image might not be usable.

Oracle Site License
Here the US, there is a Site license for Oracle or some call it, an Enterprise License. It works something like this. For something in the range of $1-2M per year you get to run an unlimited number of Oracle DB and Apps Server plus all of the features they offer; performance tool, track patches, etc BUT only running on internally facing systems within the Intranet. I understand here we have a limited number of external licenses which are organized in a very small number of 2-Core, 4-Core, 6-Core, 8-Core and I understand 10 12 Core licenses. Keep in mind the 2-Core License runs around $50K on US GSA schedule. Back when we transferred a 2-Core license off a laptop over to one z900 IFL (238MIPS) and now am using it on on the upgraded z9BC (480 MIPS) to run 8-9 instances with more on the way; all with the same 2-Core license. Recently, in the hall the other side of support was unboxing a new 10 processor (yes they called it processor and not Core) Intel blade and while snickering asked me what I have knowing I run a 2-CP and 3-CP z/OS z9BCs. They hurried it into the machine room to rack-it and went to plug it in only to see a strange plug. They asked what kind of a plug we thought it was and it was 220V (never seen by them before). Next day they were over to our side asking it they could plug it into one of our PDUs. Thus say it was a 10-Core, an externally facing Oracle license would be $250K+ and do you believe they have everything supporting that application living on one box and only one box. Some interesting dollars.

Re: Observations and Questions About Our Platform
Simple: call volume. Just in the U.S. there are a couple hundred million people with PCs, and you want to get them shunted to the correct call queue as quickly as possible. Statistically speaking, you're probably calling a general IBM help number with a PC problem. I don't think the statistics are even close on that question, actually. A lot of people think of IBM as the universal help desk. On a trip a few years ago the person sitting next to me on the airplane struck up a conversation and eventually learned (because he asked) that I work for IBM. Whereupon he asked me for help getting his HP printer working with his Apple Macintosh. (And come to think of it you probably can sign a contract with IBM for that sort of service. But he didn't sign a contract with me. :-)) Another side reason is that z/OS doesn't fail an awful lot, and if your, say, credit card transactions have stopped running you probably aren't going to be unfamiliar with how to get ahold of IBM if necessary. IBM doesn't have to do so much hand holding on a general 800 number, basically. You wouldn't find myriad other IBM products first (or even second) in the call queue voice prompts either. As a rough comparison, when you call the GE Answer Center, is the first thing you hear, Press 1 for assistance preventing a nuclear meltdown with the GE Boiling Water Reactor? No, you're probably going to hear first about toasters, microwave ovens, and refrigerators.

Only if you haven't the DASD to put it anywhere else. Are there any compelling reasons NOT to place it there? As already mentioned, reserves I/O contention can send the sysplex casters- up. All arguments to the contrary, we unfortunately do have a small, shared PARMLIB on one of our sysplex couple volumes. We tend to be less than orthodox here, anyway, but allow me to explain... We are what IBM affectionately calls a BronzePlex, split across two sites. The only shared DASD we have between our sysplex images are the couple volumes. Our Storage folks claim the gave us all the spare custom volumes they had on globally shared control units (LSS') to carve out the six couple volumes for this BronzePlex. (We have recently right-sized our DASD configuration.) Only members that must be common to the sysplex are in the shared PARMLIB - IEASYM, IEASYS (PlexCFG, GRS, and Couple and RNL poitners), COUPLE, and GRSRNL. Must is a strong word, but better to maintain one copy of these members, particularly Couple and GRSRNL, than forget to update a carbon copy after making a change. All other members are taken from system-specific PARMLIB's. We do not back up the PARMLIB nor the couple volumes. We spread our primaries, alternates, and spares across the six volumes, three in each building, to minimize contention and maximize availability. We tried to pick a couple volume for PARMLIB that would be less contentious (mostly alternates and spares, and if a primary, a low-use one like SFM or WLM). Though I am sure others here can point out examples if they do in fact exist, I have yet to see a z/OS component or ISV product that puts a RESERVE on a PARMLIB volume (other than DSS/FDR/etc). Note that we CONVERT SPFEDIT. Because we only keep those four members in PARMLIB, I/O is brief, and limited to IPL and SET GRSRNL=xx. I realize the risks, and I realize some folks' heads are probably spinning, so I absolutely do not recommend anyone put PARMLIB on a couple volume. We do it here because we painted ourselves into a corner. Our IODF volumes are shared, but only within a site. I'm trying to convince line management to take the next step into shared DASD (moving toward what IBM terms a GoldPlex), but it's a tough sell right now (just read the papers). Once we get there, PARMLIB will be moved off. BTW, BronzePlex and GoldPlex (as well as PlatinumPlex) are terms taken from IBM's Redpaper z/OS Systems Programmers Guide to: Sysplex Aggregation.

2008/10/17 Tim Hare [EMAIL PROTECTED]: We need to TERSE a fairly large (for us) amount of data. This data is in multiple separate datasets now, but needs to be sent as one large sequential dataset. We can TERSE the concatenated sequential input of course; but out of curiosity I'm wondering: can you TERSE the individual components, concatenate the results via IEBGENER, and the UNTERSE the resulting file on the other end? It's trivial to try, but I very much doubt it... From what I remember about Lempel-Ziv, the dictionary is built as you go along but it might mean that the second and subsequent files concatenated would be read with incomplete information, resulting in erroneous decompression results? Terse appears to be Lempel-Ziv-Wegner (or Welch, depending on whose expired patent you prefer W to stand for), but it is a particular implementation of a general algorithm, and there are header and trailer records, both undocumented. By inspection, the header is a pretty straightforward 12 byte piece that describes both some original dataset characteristics and some encoding method info, but the trailer is longer and less obvious. It looks to me as though the trailer is just informational, but I don't know if it contains enough information to be skipped over reliably. Regardless, the dictionary after the first compress/decompress operation would not be the same as the initial dictionary, and you would have no way to tell the decompressor to start with a virgin dictionary. Without knowing much about the encoding, you could terse and concatenate the segments, and then at the other end run a splitter program to scan through the compressed data looking for headers, and invoked the deterse for each segment. Unfortunately the headers are not uniquely identifiable, i.e. there is no eyecatcher, and a syntactically correct header could occur within the compressed data stream. So your splitter program would have to scan forward from the 13th byte, treating the data stream as 12-bit chunks, until you reach a zero chunk, indicating logical EOF, then figure out how to skip over the trailer, which doesn't appear to contain its own length, and scan for the next header. It's always possible AMATERSE already does this. Another approach might be to put the original multiple datasets into members of a PDS, and terse that with AMATERSE, which understands PDS[E]s. After the deterse, you would have an identical PDS, which could be easily turned back into a sequential dataset. Or run a DSS dump selecting your datasets, terse the output of that, then deterse and DSS restore at the other end.

Re: Concatenating TERSEd data?
I would probably do the following: 1. TERSE each dataset to be transmitted. 2. Create a PDS large enough to contain each TERSEd dataset as a separate member. 3. Put another member in that pds to restore the TERSEd datasets within it 4. XMIT that PDS (not TERSE). Why the XMIT at the end instead of another TERSE? Because TERSE'ing the PDS would likely just use CPU with little futher compression. Why TERSE each dataset, then make each TERSE a member of a PDS instead of using DFDSS of each dataset, then TERSE'ing the DFDSS dump? Because not everybody has DFDSS. Of course step 2 assumes that you have a single volume with enough space to contain the PDS with all the members. If this is not true, then I'd likely download each TERSE'd dataset to my desktop. Once on my desktop, I'd use zip without compression to combine the TERSE'd datasets into a single zip file. -- John -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html

Re: Using RACF for Single Signon ( logon )
As Rich Smrcina said, this can be accomplished by using LDAP. For OS that support using NIS servers (Unix/Linux), you can even use LDAP on z/OS as a NIS server, thus you don't even have to add users to the local security database. In addition to politics you may also run into password length problems. Our distributed guys want 16 character passwords at a minimum. They feel that 6 characters is too short (our current RACF minumum), even with a 4 tries and your revoked.

Re: REXX error
That depends on the Rexx interpreter being used. On my windows/XP system I need nothing on the first line. It is surprising how many people who know Rexx so well, know so little.

C03 abend when omiting CEE.SCEERUN from JCL
I don't know if this will help or not, but can you tell us: A) is the (dynamically called subprogram in) Assembler is LE-conforming or not? B) Do you have any other COBOL (older) run-times in the steplib or the joblib of the program? C) Does anything in the C03 output tell you which dataset was NOT closed at the time of the ABEND? D) Probably not relevant. As soneone mentioned, you are getting an IKJ message. Is this a DB2 program? Mürsel Tasgin (BT Isletim ve Teknik Destek Bölümü) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Hi, We have a problem about CEE.SCEERUN usage. This LE dataset is in LINKLIST and all users are able to use it. However a batch program, which is compiled in Enterprise Cobol (V3.2) and make dynamic calls to ASM programs needs CEE.SCEERUN dataset coded inside JCL (via joblib). When we remove CEE.SCEERUN joblib statement from the JCL, the job abends with C03: IKJ56641I SYSTEM ABEND CODE C03 REASON CODE 0004 We cannot figure out, why program cannot call modules of CEE.SCEERUN from LNKLST and needs it inside JCL(via joblib). Anyone experienced same problem? Thanks and regards.
