Re: FlashCopy problem?

2007-12-24 Thread Joel C. Ewing
Even if the FC pairing always stays the same there is still the 
possibility the VVDS might take another extent, or that there could be 
VTOC or VVDS tracks that have never yet needed to be copied and would be 
invalid if read from the target after a withdraw.  With 
flash-copy-no-copy you always have the exposure that after the FC 
withdraw you may be left with inconsistent/invalid VTOC and/or VVDS data 
on the target volume.  If you always re-init the target, you don't have 
to worry about special cases, and the overhead is so minor compared with 
dumping a volume that there is no good reason not to re-INIT.


See earlier remarks in ibm-main re the INIT on a target volume also 
forcing a FC Withdraw of no-copy relationship.  If you are going to 
re-init anyhow, this is probably a better way to do the withdraw than 
with the DUMP.  If you withdraw the copy relationship but leave the 
device online, you are exposed to some occasionally bizarre (but 
typically non-fatal) MVS error messages if some periodic system process 
that checks all online volumes attempts to look at the online target 
volume after the FCWITHDR but before it is reinitialized and sees 
"strangeness".

This is usually an issue only after the first copy of a volume - as long as the 
source-target pairing remains the same, the VTOC will not appear to move after 
the first time.

I suspect that your problem may be ralated to this.

  As to solutions, have you considered copying the disk volume (or

  Also, you mention that the old server "has only internal disk".
If you can accept the downtime, you can probably open the old server and
either temporarily install a new disk to copy to, or take the old disk
out and temporarily install it in the new server.


There may be another problem. What level of z/OS are you trying to
migrate? What are you migrating from (e.g., an M/P 3000)?

This may be more of a painful migration than you are expecting.

I hope you can give some ideas as if or how to solve the 
following

issue.

You may guess that it relates to migrating from an "old" 
server with
no external tape and no external disk to a new z9 + 
external DS6000

disk -

There are no tape units installed.
There is no z/VM system in the old environment.

We wish to migrate the z/OS systems and data currently in 
use to the

new envrionment.
For simplicity sake imagine it is a one pack z/OS system 
we need to

move - once we can ipl this we are in business to do more.

How might you do this, our options thinking went like 

1. Use new z/OS starter system - as above not possible 
since no

external tape to restore it from
2. Connect new server to the existing disk or old server 
to the new
disk systems - not possible, the old system has only 
internal disk and

the new disk is FICON and cannot
be connected to the old processor.

So this leaves us with

3. Somehow "dump" an old system and FTP it across to the 
new system
having loaded z/VM via the z9 HMC using DVD's to the new 
systems disk
and thus having a z/VM and CMS environment - z/VM is 
available on

DVD's.

This is where the questions arise and looking for some 
help or ideas

as to how to make this work or if not possible.

We see the steps as

GET A RESTORE PGM
We believe we can build a SA DFDSS pgm in card image form 
(BUILDSA) on

the old system and FTP this across to a CMS user.
This user should be able to receive this card image as a 
CMS file and

"punch" it to the virtual reader.
We could then "IPL" from the reader on this z/VM virtual 
machine


- this then creates a SA DFDSS environment

GET THE DUMPED DFDSS "one pack system" data
the trick now, and where we are struggling it how to send 
across the

DSFSS dump of  the one pack environment.
Clearly on the old system we can create a sequential DFDSS 
dump image

but held on disk.
We then need to FTP this sequential image and use it as 
input to the

SA DFDSS system Ipl'ed.

SO ... ANY CLUES ON

- HOW TO SPECIFY THE FTP OPTIONS at each end to make sure 
both ends

correctly see this sequential stream in a format DFDSS can
subsequently use.
  (we assume it will be held as in interim CMS file)

- HOW WE specify the input to the SA DFDSS environment we 
have just

ipl'ed so it can process this data

We feel we need some views as to whether this is a non 
starter as a

process OR if posible please
details of the process and commands that should be used to 
achieve

this

Hopefully someone has done this who could assist or knows 
if this is

just not possible.

TIA.

You are free to take anyone's views with a grain of salt, but bear in
mind that Peter not only has access to the source code to the current
system, he also heavily involved with current design decisions in a
number of z/OS development teams.  Keep in mind also that the original
poster was referring to a program object stored in a PDSE, not a load
module stored in a PDS, so how things worked in MVS 3.8J and earlier may
not (and probably don't) apply to this discussion.

I'd have to take that with a serious grain of salt, Peter. Relocation 
has spanned page boundaries since the advent of virtual storage systems.

Perhaps there's another boundary that you have in mind.

What exactly do you mean by "FICON CF links"?

>>> Dave Barry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 12/21/2007 6:28 PM >>>
Job A on system A issues static SQL query to DB2 on system B.  Which is
faster:

1) DDF call to DB2 on system B via APPC over FICON CTC 

or

2) Local call to DB2 member of datasharing group w/ FICON CF links?

Considering the overhead of DRDA protocol and independent enclave
creation/classification/scheduling, etc., I would guess option 2 is more
efficient in terms of CPU and response time.  I'm just not sure how to

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

2007-12-24 Thread Clement Clarke

May you have a wonderful Christmas, and receive all the universe has to
offer over Christmas and the New Year.  And may the New Years just
rolling on, and on!

Create wonderful lives for yourselves and those around you, remembering
that thoughts become things, and that you have reflected back to you
what you create

Peace and Blessings,

Clement Clarke, Perth, Australia
