I just wanted to let everyone know of an issue I had with the Serverpac Install. First, YES - I did not read the PSP. So it is not a surprise I made a small miscalculation.
In Dec 2007 there was a fix that was release for GIMUNZIP. It has to do with SB37 abends on SYSUT1 during the Unzip of a PDS/E (POE) data set. Apparently IBM has hardcoded in the GIMUNZIP process how much space to dynamically allocate for SYSUT1 when recreating the PDS/E data set from teh archive file. This is what causes the SB37. The SCEEMOD2 data set is much bigger today than under z/OS V1.7. So I had to install the following fixes UO00674 UO00678 and UO00649. Once I had these installed and added (apf' authorized) to the RECEIVE JOBLIB statement, everything is running much better. There are two issues that I will bring up with IBM at the next Share I attend. Why is this hardcoded and not part of an ARCHDEF control card statement? And two, we have FASTCOPY (PDSMAN) in shop. I have to manually add the JCL statement //FCOPYOFF DD DUMMY to all steps before I submit. Otherwise I get bad errors when FASTCOPY tries to work on PDSE data sets. Anyway, so much for not reading.
