Re: VSAM--ESDS--what can I do to speed write processing

2011-03-24 Thread Hal Merritt
Depending on the specific situation, buffering has no effect on writing. After every PUT, the CI has to be flushed all the way to disk so that the cluster can be processed concurrently (shared) by another task/job. Perhaps the quickest/easiest way to speed things up is coding DISP=OLD. VSAM

There are plenty of ways to get SORT to do the SORTWK allocations for you. If you've gone thru the work to set it up ... I dislike coding SORTWK DDs if I don't have to. Of course there are also times that they are invaluable. I prefer to only code what is really needed... otherwise you endup

OMEGAMON ETE SQA Memory Leak

2011-03-24 Thread George Henke
The OMEGAMON End-to-End task, by design, leaves a small amount of SQA in memory on termination. It is supposed to reuse this memory on startup. However, we have noticed it does not and if the ETE STC is bounced a number of times, SQA can become constrained. Does anyone have a resolution for

SDSF Prefix Macros?

Now that there's a nice (FSVO) Rexx API to SDSF, it would be quite useful to be able to type a member name on a line of an SDSF output list and have SDSF execute that member of SYSEXEC, passing it a handle to the item selected. Is this possible? SDSF doesn't seem to have a prefix area big enough
