I don't suppose many installations will be really paging (constantly) these days. Paging will be more concentrated to spikes and at those (seldom) moments you really need the PAV exposures badly. With larger memory sizes, dumps will be larger, causing large page-out bursts and more subsequent page-ins. You don't want those page-ins to perform badly in peak time and therefor you want a certain number of PAV exposures on your total page space. M - maybe that old seldom ending channel program wasn't such a bad idea after all. A joke of course? For the SECP you needed to decicate a volume to 1 pgds. If you do that now, you have 2 PAV exposures, say 2 SECP's per pgds. If you don't dedicate volumes to 1 pgds, you now have better performance too than in the SECP situation. Kees.

Re: ISMF split second question

Hello, I reorganized my VIO Storage Groups, deleted the old SGs, added 2 new SGs and changed the ACS SG routine to route VIO datasets to the new VIO SGs. The question is: what happens when I activate the new configuration. Is it possible that the new ACS routines are activated a few milliseconds before the new SG definitions or visa versa? If so, the ACS routine can route datasets to the old SGs, which are already invalidated, or route them to the new SGs, which have not been activated yet. Or is this fully synchronized and safe to do? Thanks, Kees. I did not get any answers to the above question but discovered something interesting this morning with regard to my manipulations of the VIO SGs. Btw. the title should read SMS, not ISMF. One system was IPLd for the first time since the new VIO SGs were activated and the old ones removed. At least one task that was running since the last IPL of the system, ran into a JCL error when brought down, because its last steps used VIO datasets and referred the old, removed VIO SGs. Apparantly the SG name is already deciced when the job/stc starts. The conclusion is that it is dangerous to remove (VIO) SGs and possibly other SMS constructs during the life of the IPL of the systems in the SMS configuration. Long running task may have been assigned those constructs and will then request them weeks or months later when the relevant steps execute. Hope this info is useful for some of you.

page data sets and HiperPAV (was: Large Page Datasets APAR OA20749)

Re: Large Page Datasets APAR OA20749
How to configure page data sets is an interesting question. I've just been involved in a customer situation where significant paging was a problem. Unfortunately it's still too fresh to really talk about it. But I can see this new function is a good excuse to blog about paging. And I already have a foil in Memory Matters on the importance of paging subsystem design. The customer situation and this APAR mean, I think, another foil or two. At a time when I need FEWER foils. It's funny how fast things move between (4-monthly) updatings of presentations. In a good sort of way. :-) I think the assumption that paging performance rarely matters is a poor one. Even if true there's a heck of a difference between dumping into a poorly-configured paging subsystem and into a good one. (Far better still to dump into memory, though I realise that's probably unaffordable for many.) And now I have some questions: Do any disk controllers cache paging activity? For many years the answer was an unequivocal no. This matters because that might drive you to more, smaller, page data sets. Is it still the case that the contiguous slot algorithm degrades above, say, 30%? I would think so, though I now measure the number of pages written per I/O and it seems to be around 5 - 10 in the 1.7 era. Maybe I should attempt to prime my developerWorks space with a discussion on paging and invite people to contribute.

Unless something has changed since z/OS 1.3 when this support was introduced. That is a very good point, especially because I was going to say Dynamic PAV and of course HyperPAV, but thought I had better check the code first. It turns out that the ASM code which decides whether to create two sets of I/O control blocks for a page data set was not updated for HyperPAV (an oversight on our part). It checks to see if you specified WLM PAV when you defined the device in HCD. Since WLM doesn't need to manage PAVs when the control unit has been told to use HyperPAV mode, our intention was that the specification of WLM PAV in HCD would be irrelevant for HyperPAV devices. But for now, it looks like you would want to specify WLM PAV for HyperPAV paging devices, until we can update the ASM code (probably via an APAR) to automatically recognize HyperPAV paging devices. - snip - Zaromil -- 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

Re: Setting up a service class for DDF
I'm with Ted on this one. We also started years ago with one or two DDF service classes, and they quickly became woefully inadequate. We tried a variety of configurations, from a 5-level priority system with multi-periods, to one or two with single periods. In our environment, the most efficient and most effective has been to code a HI/MED/LOW setup with three service classes, each with ONE and ONLY ONE service class period each, based on a percentile/time goal like 80% complete in 0.500 seconds that very closely matched our CICS transaction goals in importance and %/t goal. We found that as DDF transactions moved from period to period, their response times dropped dramatically. Why put it in HI if it's just going to end up LOW? Our customers screamed when the systems got busy, and their transactions started running longer, and began to traverse to LOW. So for us, HI means HI, end of story. We also found, in post processor reports, that multi-period DDF caused transactions that traversed all periods to use about 5% MORE service units than when they stayed in one period. We didn't have the head room to allow for this kind of inefficiency. Your mileage may vary. Try something based on your business goals. Monitor and tune from there. %/t goals are great in that they give you all the facts of what happened in black and white, and are easy to tune from.

GRS RESMIL SETTING
We have a GRS environment using XCF (ie not using a CF) with three LPARS connected. We had changed the RESMIL value to OFF to try and improve responsiveness. That worked, but the XCFAS address space CPU consumption went up. We decided to change the RESMIL value to 0 since that does leave the tuning mechanism working. The manual indicates that RESMIL can be changed on any LPAR independent of the others. One LPAR was changed, leaving the other two set to OFF. It looks as if changingthe RESMIL value to 0 in one LPAR has reduced the CPU consumption in the XCFAS address space in all LPARS.

Re: IBM Tivoli Monitoring (ITM for short) (was: Is IBM/Tivoli turning into CA?)
I know. However, we started installing the IBM Tivoli products in October 2006 and the versions IBM sent us were 3.1. We spent all last year just getting everything up on all the distributed systems. We have a lot of problems and opened many PMRs with IBM. IBM was on site several times during the year. Now our two z/OS system programmers are working on upgrading from z/OS 1.7 to z/OS 1.9 so anything to do with Tivoli is on the back burner. Maybe one of these days we'll get there.

The OMEGAMON XE 41 level products that GA'ed in Oct 06 (and one in Jan 07) allow complete summarization and pruning with the TDW. Kelman, Tom wrote: Hmm, I just saw this thread. We had the old Candle Omegamon mainframe products here for several years before IBM bought them out. So our management got the brilliant idea that we'd expand on that and install the full Tivoli Monitoring suite. We currently have agents to monitor z/OS, DB2, CICS, and MQ Series on z/OS plus our AIX/OS systems along with DB2 UDB, ORACLE, MQ Series, MQ Broker, and WebSphere on AIX. We also have the Tivoli Data Warehouse which my management wants me to start using for capacity planning. However, with the release of Tivoli we are on the data warehouse processing isn't there yet. It won't summarize and prune the data coming from the z/OS systems so the detail data would keep growing unchecked thereby overrunning the database in no time. So I'm still using MXG to do capacity planning on z/OS and that's fine with me. However, once the release of Tivoli gets put in place that will do the summarization and pruning I'm afraid I'll be forced to use the data warehouse. The other stumbling block is that there is no built in facility for producing management reports from the data warehouse. The only way within Tivoli to access the data is via the TEP. To do real management reporting you have to get a reporting tool such as BIRT that will access a DB2 or Oracle database (the two formats used by the Tivoli Data Warehouse) to create your reports. IMHO the original Candle Omegamon product was designed to be an operational alerting and problem resolution tool, and it did that very well over the years. Now management, at least mine, wants the product to do everything and it's not making the grade.

Re: z/OS messages libraries - continued
Francois, Ok, Now that I understand it better, There is another product, called Connect Direct that does pretty much what you are doing. If you have their (Sterling Commerce) product, have a look at how they do it. They have a message library that contains all the messages that you can get using their product, and if you forget to update the message library, you get a message that the message '' could not be found in the message library. If I can remember correctly, the error code is in or pointed too by register 15, but it has been a long time since I have physically programmed. As just said, I would look at the quickref libraries, because unless they have hardcoded it in their programs maybe as a dsect, it should be in one of their libraries, because you can get just about any message using their product.

TCP/IP is not as flexable as V TAM in handling USSTABs. Unless they've changed the way it works later, as long as any connection is using the old copy of the table, that's the one in storage. New connections will pick it up. As far as I know there is nothing you can Obeyfile in that will change this (unless you Obeyfile in something that breaks all connectios using the table). Once all the connections have terminated the old table will be deleted. The next connection will cause the new table to be loaded. The only way I know of to get around this is to use 2 or more table names. Obeyfile in a new set of Tn3270 defs that refer to the new table name. The existing connections will not be hurt and new ones will get the new table. That's a pain if you make lots of changes and have long lasting connections. Keeping track of the table names can be a hassle. Maybe it's time for a formal request to IBM that TCP/IP do a better job of supporting USSTAB changes.

John, I don't know how much influence you have on the ShopZseries process, but it would be nice if all of the products that fall into this category where somehow noted as such. I like to order these products for completeness, to avoid if possible the add-on's between Serverpac installs.

The whole thing worked pretty well up until we started adding more systems.

Any consideration to reduce I/O against COMMDS when SMSPLEX = SYSPLEX?
Hi, The SMS address space is one of the Top 10 I/O consumers on most z/OS systems here. It is small compared to DB2 and IMS but large compared to most other persistent tasks. Has anyone ever had a conversation with IBM or raised a requirement to reduce the physical I/O to the COMMDS when the SMSPLEX is identical to the Sysplex? Maybe this is a dumb question and there is some obvious tuning knob I have been missing. I noticed we do have interval set to 10 seconds instead of the default 15 and it has been that way apparently since we implemented SMS in the 1990's. When I was looking at this it just struck me as really odd that almost every other product we have that that does checkpoint processing to communicate system status can optionally exploit the coupling facility or XCF but not DFSMS. I keep an eye on Top I/O consumers looking for any changes and usually skipped over SMS but I had a Why is the sky blue? moment today. JES2, Thruput Manager, CA-MIM all exploit XCF or Coupling Facility structures to exchange status information and reduce data set checkpoint I/O.

Re: Netview problem
What is the userid that is associated with the messages? These are not duplicate messages, the commands are getting issued multiple times, 5 times to be exact.
