Tom Conley - I know you commented on this thread earlier - do you know 
anything about this?  Maybe one of the ISPF developers will chime in with a

To answer Kenneth, no, I can't edit all the panels.  I seriously doubt if 
management would want me to spend time doing that, plus all of the extra 
overhead every time you apply maintenance.

I only recall SDSF having an option to remove the menu bar. SDSF is an ISPF
based product, it is not ISPF. You would have to edit all of the ISPF 
panels

and remove them yourself. And then check after you apply maintenance. And
every ISPF based product, too. Other ISPF based products may or may not
have a menu bar. Get yourself onto tn3270 and define some 43 line 
terminals

and two lines won't be all that much real estate.

There's a difference. JCL is supposed to be cumbersome and in upper case.

E-Mail is to communicate with human beings.
All upper-case is difficult to read, period.

Especially with 50-year-old eyes.

I meant no disrespect.
I was just pointing out it was difficult to read.

Can't you get a mod-4 (or at least a mod-3)?

I've used a mod-4 for years.
When I went to my last company, I got them to change the RUMBA server to 
support mod-4.
Before that, they only supported 2  3.

2007-12-26 Thread Michael Cleary
Greetings,

A few things have been fixed in the 1.4.8 level of DAF
which is available for testing at:

http://www.geocities.com/michaeljosephcleary/
 
Recent Fixes include:

SMF T092S014 record logic corrected (new in z/OS 1.9
to create an audit trail for USS file deletes and
renames)
SMF T082S023 record logic corrected
Numerous other fixes

Please report anything that looks strange such as:
- DAF613I for unknown data
- Abends
- Error messages
- Incorrect output
- DAFSNAP output
- Anything not doing what you think it should

Also, feel free to send me any ideas for enhancements
or improvesments. 

As a reminder, if assembling on z/OS 1.9, APAR OA22304
is needed or the asembly will fail with:

 Assembly error in ERBR742 Macro   
 ASMA043E Previously defined symbol - R742MACT 
  
Cheers...

On a brighter side, the ISPF manuals contain several references

something long awaited.  Is there an overview of this feature,
or is it so easy to use that I need know nothing more than to

Sizing a read-only zFS container file

2007-12-26 Thread McKown, John
I have just downloaded both the 31 and 64 bit versions of Java 6 for
z/OS. I now want to create a zFS file to contain both. I will mount it
at /usr/lpp/jdk160 (to go along with my jdk142 and jdk150
subdirectories). Once created, this will be mounted READ ONLY. I want to
make this file as small as possible. Anybody got any ideas? So far, all
that I've thought of is to unwind the PAX file on my PC and do a du -k
on the subdirectories to see how big they are. Do you think this will
work?

I got the new JDKs starting at:

Re: ISPF Action Bar Menus

rid of the Action Bars is that it takes up 2  lines of the 24 lines on the

a mod-4 for years. When I went to my last company, I got them to change the

Re: Use of TinyURLs (Was: 2007 Year in Review on Mainframes)

 From: Arthur T. [EMAIL PROTECTED]
   As suggested, a tinyurl *plus* the URL of the actual 
 site is best.  Among other things, it gives the recipient 
 an idea of where this link is going to go to, before 
 clicking on it.

I agree with this statement, but just as an FYI you can preview where a
tinyurl goes by prepending preview. to the link.

Example: http://preview.tinyurl.com/5d4

IBMLINK -- Web Version

2007-12-26 Thread Thompson, Steve
Anyone having problems getting SIS to work, or in opening an ETR?

I am unable to get searches to complete without an error telling me that
I need a search argument, date range, or something, even though I have
given a very specific search argument.

And, I get through the process of opening an ETR, hit submit after
putting in all the info and I get Internal server error. 

At least 3270 is working -- for both cases.

Re: FlashCopy problem?

2007-12-26 Thread Justin Eastman
The problem with doing the full volume copy even with nocopy is that track 0 
is always copied which indicates where the VTOC is.  So if both of the 
volumes do not have the VTOC in the same location then the volume will need 
to be initted so that track zero VTOC field points to the true location of the 
VTOC.  If they are in the same place, then its possible that the tracks of the 
VTOC or VTOCIX of the source are updated and this kicks off a background 
copy of the changed track which could then screw up the VTOC or VTOCIX on 
the target volume if its position overlaps with the source volume.  

DFSMSdss has been changed in APAR OA18929 to perform a volume INIT when 
FCWITHDRAW is specified on the DUMP when it is detected that it is needed.

Hi,

At least two of them were new to me, that is why I put some new and  
some old. As to your other question I will be civil and say because  
at times I know everyone gets busy and at times it is very hectic and  
sometimes comic relief is needed. The one about the help desk is  
definetly old but the new ones were different in that they didn't say  
Mainframe but the implication was there with the raised floor and the  
huge big wiring in the background. The one was rather fun to watch  
(not educational in anyway), IMO. You were free to recognize the old  
ones and to disregard them. They were at least as fun as the ones  
Timothy S. posted on here last week (and these were NOT by IBM PR type).

Re: Question about a NAME/TOKEN pair restriction

2007-12-26 Thread Jim Mulder
IBM Mainframe Discussion List IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU wrote on 12/26/2007 
01:10:14 PM:

 For both the IEANTCR and IEANTRT name/token pair service macros, the
 documentation states:
 
 
 Restrictions
 ---
 Do not use the IEANTCR callable service in a RESMGR resource manager
 routine unless one of the following is true:

- The resource manager is running for a daughter task of the task that 
owns 
the name/token pair.

What is the definition of a daughter task? Is it only the immediate 
subtask of 
the current task or can it be a grand daughter or great great great 
grand 
daughter subtask as well?
 
  I believe this would be true for any descendant of the task
which owns the name/token pair.  I would guess (without checking the
code) that the restriction is because task termination cleanup of
name/token pairs owned by the terminating task is done by a static 
system resource manager which runs before the dynamic resource managers 
established via RESMGR.
