Re: ABC of Z/os

2005-11-15 Thread TISLER Zaromil
 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.  ABCs of z/OS System Programming Volume 3, SG24-6983-01
Redbook, published 7 November 2005, last updated 7 November 2005 


Volumes 4, 6, 7, and 8 are not published yet (at least as far as I know).

Add HEX numbers

2005-11-15 Thread Karthick I
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

Re: Add HEX numbers

2005-11-15 Thread Hans Visser
Karthick,

put the line 'numeric digits 16' in front of your REXX.

/ REXX /
/**/
  TRACE ALL
/**/
  numeric digits 16
/**/
  hex1 = 'A000'
  hex2 = '5320878'
  hex3 = X2D(hex1) + X2D(hex2)
  SAY  D2X(hex3)
/**/
  RETURN
/**/

SMS Assistance

2005-11-15 Thread Robert Pelletier
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

2005-11-15 Thread Greg Shirey
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,

2005-11-15 Thread Tom Schmidt
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?

HCD, change existing partition from MVS to VM....

2005-11-15 Thread Brian France

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...
