Re: Identify EAV volume

[Edward Finnell]

If you have PDS(File182 on CBT) EAV support is included in LISTV
 
Update  8.6.14.4:   
  

EAV support for PDSE data sets allocated in the  cylinder-managed   
  
space.  This mod thanks to John Hamlet from  SAS.   
  

Update  8.6.14.1:   
  

LISTV: Expand cylinder display fields (largest, total, and primary) to  7   
 
characters and identify 3390-A  volumes.  This change was made  to  
   
accommodate 1TB EAV  drives.

TS7760 Questions (Was: 7760)

[Timothy Sipples]

In reply to original question #3, look for the "copy export" function in
IBM's TS7760 documentation. You can also continue using whatever tape file
generation approaches you wish, if you wish -- for example, the AWSTAPE
Utilities from CBT Tape. The TS7760 is a virtual tape library, so anything
(and more) you can logically do with physical tapes -- for example, copy
them to AWSTAPE files -- you can do.

Re: 7760

[Brian Fraser]

Different systems will use a different category codes in
SYS1.PARMLIB(DEVSUPxx), as long as the the unconnected systems have unique
volume serial numbers then its no problem.

Two or more unconnected systems can share one big partition, or it can be
divided into 2 or more partitions and controlled by storage class routines.

The size of each partitions can be changed on the fly.

I have 8 different SMSPLEXs (8 different CA-1 TMCs) all residing in one
partition.

Re: Curious about IBM time conversion example program

[Bill Godfrey]

The same manual used to have an example subprogram named BPXTTOD that did a 
time conversion in the opposite direction. When it stopped working at the same 
date (January 10 2004 13:37:04, correcting a typo in my previous post) the 
example was just dropped entirely from the manual starting with the z/OS 1.7 
edition.

Re: Curious about IBM time conversion example program

I mentioned that issue with regard to a different example (that used storage 
references, for example, where the current architecture would allow TMLH and 
LLILF instead) to an IBMer whose name you would recognize in an instant. I 
offered to supply a better example and submit it as an RCF if he would vet it. 
He was adamant that he had zero interest in such an endeavor.

I guess good enough is good enough. It's an algorithm, not a programming class.

But ETOD is now 128 bits.  Still, isn't a 128-bit dividend supported.  Remainder

Re: What to do with PTF dogies?

[Dan Little]

I put them all on unless they are PE. I don't agree with the picking and 
choosing that RSU does and if I get hit in production by some old PTF that was 
not in an RSU for whatever reason my management is going to be very unhappy. 
Been there before and don't want to repeat.

The other issue is that our other infrastructure teams all have their Own 
schedules and so we will never all be at a chosen RSU level.

Paul,

Well even though it is NOT a concern, I fixed the job not to depend on the

found in real email address.

R.S,

Yes that is indeed my delimiter that I added in the earlier on the 1st 
IFTHEN statement, where I was converting to upper case.  I added that 
delimiter as stopper to stop PARSE from getting into the domain data when 
we are re-parsing the name once again. May be I should have added more 
detail comments but then it would overshadow the actual control cards. So 
I kept the comments to be short.

Both DCOLLECT and SMF have flags for EAV volumes,
and programs like MXG Software know about them.

My understanding:
** first IFTHEN + OVERLAY put string before @ (with all the garbage like 
"John Sr Doe <") and string before end of domain (which can be space or 
">" or comma). First string is placed in col 81, the second in col 135.

What is "#$%&" ? is kind of delimiter?

** the second IFTHEN parses "name" field again to remove "<". What about 
records without "<>" ?


** third IFTHEN simply removes " character, but why it starts from 181, 
while name was put on 185?


** fourth IFTHEN chooses records with non-empty field 185,50 and builds 
record using original record (1,80), name (185,50) and domain (135,50).


** fifth IFTHEN takes rest of records (means empty 185,50) and builds 
record using original record (1,80) "raw" name (81,50) and domain (131,50).

This field in the F4DSCB in the VTOC will tell you:

DS4DSCYL

Number of logical cylinders including alternates, if
any exist. Unsigned number. Set to X'FFFE' for
devices with more than 65,520 cylinders, indicating
that cylinder-managed space exists (DS4CYLMG is

LSPACE will retrieve the volume size in LSPDVOLI, or return the entire

Hi,
We’re being offered a TS7760, and I have some questions:

1.Can the machine be partitioned to serve two separate, unconnected 
systems? How flexible is the partition? Must it be fixed when the system is 
configured, or can I change it later?

2.Are any additional operating system components needed? We are currently 
running z/OS v2.1.

3.Are the files that represent the tapes accessible? Could I copy them to 
an external drive and store them somewhere else?

4.Is there a ‘TS7760 for dummies’ book?

Thanks

Re: Identify EAV volume

[Lizette Koehler]

What problem are you trying to solve?

most shops use a stand set of definitions for dasd which comes with specific 
setting for size of volume.

So if you see it is a 3390 Mod3 you know it will be 3339 cylinders.  Though you 
could make  it different, this is what most will recognize as how many 
cylinders are on a Mod3.

With EAV the type of volume definition is slightly different and IBM has 
suggested 3390 ModA (3390-A) for EAV.

Then you would specify how large it is (typically larger than a Mod54)

You also need to see that the Mod-A uses a different sizing - it can be up to 
255TB in size for one volume

If you do an internet search on 

IBM 3390-A EAV 

You might find this Share presentation that might help

SHARE 9941 Planning for EAV Migration

Or this

IBM Redbooks | DFSMS V1.10 and EAV Technical Guide

Or this entry

Extended address volumes for CKD - IBM


They (and other presentations and links) should help you understand the EAV
