Re: ABC of Z/os
I'm experiencing some problem on finding the books. A serach in the redbook site shows no results for ABCs V3/4/6/7/8. Any idea ? Searching for abcs of z/os I get 9 hits. Volume 3 is there too: 4.

Add HEX numbers
Hi Listers This might not be the right forum to ask this question, but guess some of you would be able to help, Actually I was working on a REXX where I had to add few large hexa numbers but wasn't able to do. So I converted the hex to decimals and was able to add but when I tried converting the final output back to hex it wouldn't allow me. Is there a way to add such large Hex numbers?? (like hex1 = a000 and hex2 = d2x(5320878) and hex3 is the sum of hex1 hex2) Thanks in advance for your time and assistance Cheers Karthick -- 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

SMS Assistance
Hi All. I have been asked to make a file SMS managed and to add 2 volumes to the SMS pool. This is uncharted waters for me. I have found our ACS routines and they are as follows: PROC STORCLAS FILTLIST OEDSN INCLUDE(OMVS.**,POSIX.**,OMVSV210.**, CAI.*.HFS.**) FILTLIST BACKS INCLUDE('SERVP.SLFVNOTE') SELECT WHEN (DSN EQ OEDSN) DO SET STORCLAS EQ 'CSLFSTOR' EXIT END WHEN (DSN EQ BACKS) DO SET STORCLAS EQ 'VSAMSTOR' EXIT END OTHERWISE SET STORCLAS EQ '' END END I need to add SERVP.MONTHLY.SLFVNOTE some where. PROC STORGRP SELECT WHEN (DSN='SERVP.SLFVNOTE') SET STORGRP EQ 'CSLFGRP2' OTHERWISE SET STORGRP = 'CSLFGRP1' END END PROC DATACLAS FILTLIST HELMS INCLUDE('SERVP.SLFVNOTE') SELECT WHEN (DSN EQ HELMS) SET DATACLAS EQ 'VSAMCLAS' OTHERWISE SET DATACLAS EQ '' END END Where do I go in the panels to add new volumes to what ever pool I need to put them into? I know the group is very busy is there a manual, white paper, SHARE presentation that will help me? Thanks in advance everyone. I truly appreciate any suggestions.

Re: SMS Assistance
Bob, The manual you need is Implementing System Managed Storage. It takes you through the basics of getting started with SMS. I don't know what version of z/OS you are on, so here's a link to all the DFSMS bookshelves: http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/Shelves?filter=dfsmsSU BMIT=Find As far as the ISMF panels, start at option 6 - Storage Group. You need to fill in your SCDS name if it isn't already, then put the Storage Group Name in the proper blank, and tab down to Select one of the following options and enter 4. This takes you to the Storage Group Volume Selection panel, where Add Volumes is option 2. After you've added them, you'll need to validate and activate your SCDS. HTH, Greg Shirey Ben E.

Re: Mainframe Java (Was: Platform Advocacy)
I, like Bob, don't remember anything that was said... only the small black server in a large, brightly lit room with two stooges looking at it and rambling to each other. They didn't sell me on the technology or on IBM. IBM needs to dump that ad agency and get real IBM technologists to talk to the audience. Folks like Jim, Greg, Mark, Jonathan or Peter (or any number of other candidates -- like, say, folks from IBM research!) who understand customer issues and can actually communicate in clear non-football sentences. The game itself was pretty good... in the final 4 minutes (late, late, late). Maybe IBM should just buy air time to replace the first 50 or so minutes of the game to let their people talk about z/Series? -- Tom Schmidt Madison, WI On Tue, 15 Nov 2005 13:00:55 -0500, Richards.Bob wrote: They sure did!

HCD, change existing partition from MVS to VM....
Folks, Some years ago I created a partition for our then test IFL to bring up z/VM and Linux. I still can't remember the whys but it ended up being defined as MVS. We've had no problems until now. We want to connect to a san fabric to get to open systems data on our shark. We have found that to accomplish this fibre hookup, it needs to be VM in the operating system config. Is there anyway to accomplish this without a re-keying or connecting by hand all that it had. I see I can not just change it from MVS to VM. I've tried several different copy and or move the config and it always brings MVS along. Ideas appreciated... Brian W.
