Thanks to Dennis Trojak and Tom Schmidt, I turned on the SDSF trace
facility for 0080 SAF events and viola! I saw an OPERCMDS call for
JES2.CANCEL.somethingorother. You may remember about 2 months ago that we
had to disable OPERCMDS in order to prevent those unsightly 483 FRACINT
abends for remote commands from ACF2. So we either get abends on remote
commands or SDSF doesn't work. Heckuva choice.... Right now we're having
fun trying to figure out how to modificate the ISFUSER exit to allow these
to go through even if OPERCMDS is inactive. Do you have any better ideas?
Tom,
ACF2? Are you maybe running ACF2 and RACF (mixed) in a sysplex?
There "may be" a zap you may apply to avoid the abends in that case. Then
you can reenable OPERCMDS ... and maybe we can crack open a cold one at
SCIDS in Boston?
Tom,
If you missed my first post, I am doing an ACF2 to RACF conversion. We are
mixed in the SYSPLEX, so turning off OPERCMDS in RACF was our only real
option. Unfortunately, that makes SDSF non-functional, and I got 50 users
saying, "Why can't I purge my jobs, change INIT classes, change SRVCLASS?",
etc. I've been trying to figure out why SDSF wasn't working for weeks here.
We had some problems with their ISFUSER exit, but we fixed those and ran
right into this OPERCMDS issue, which I've been working on for well over a
week. It would have been so much @#$%^$# easier if SDSF had issued a
message like "OPERCMDS IS INACTIVE, YOU SCHMUCK", but I guess that's asking
too much.
The unsupported zap of which you speak is a non-starter here, unless IBM
wants to step up to the plate. We're trying to figure out if we can code
ISFUSER to let us slide on OPERCMDS if it's inactive.
Ice it up, baby, I'm there.
Tom
