Re: VSMLIST Data
Thanks Peter. I did more experimenting and you pretty much confirmed what I think I found. If I allocate multiple blocks worth of storage in one go it shows the address and how many 4k blocks. If I allocate multiple pages multiple times and they aren't contiguous then it shows multiple allocations. Then I assume if storage is freed which results in holes in the allocations then that is shown. Why do I care? Two reasons. First I want to understand memory management. Second is I want to schedule an SRB into an address space and know what memory it has allocated and the addresses of those allocations.

Re: Deferred mount and device allocation
Victor, Ron was correct that unless you have UNIT=AFF, it will always allocate all three drives at initialization time. The reason is that you would never want to be put into a allocation failure situation in the middle of a job. If the program can handle being stopped half-way through and can then wait for an allocation to become available; then that program should have used dynamic-allocation and actually performed the allocation on an as needed basis. But, if the allocation is done with JCL then it will be allocated at initialization time to insure that everything the JCL said was required was available at the time it started.

Re: Interrupting CICS and IMS transactions
Jim I tried to get onto the IMS-L list and failed miserably so I hope I am not wasting my time telling you what you have already been told - always a risk when cross-posting. Fortunately I was able to check responses in the CICS-L list since I already subscribe to it. I am looking at this purely on the assumption - aided a little by the reference to x system - that VTAM, SNA and 3270 are involved. Thus the limit of my contribution will be what can be done before CICS and/or IMS come into play. Question marks were in short supply in your post but I am assuming also that there is a question buried in the statement the user would interrupt this processing somehow somewhere - perhaps I presume too much! It is this implied question I am going to tackle since - as far as I can see - it has not been tackled elsewhere until now. - Ideally you will be using the protocols associated with LU type 2 rather than those associated with LU type 0 as used with the 3270 data stream. We'll cover the less desirable option later. You are probably using TN3270 for access to your CICS and IMS. Again we'll come to the considerations introduced by TN3270 later. The protocols associated with LU type 2 include a bracket protocol and it is expected that programming will encapsulate whatever might constitute a logical transaction within a bracket starting with a begin bracket indicator and ending with an end bracket indicator in the request header (RH). Within the bracket the protocols associated with LU type 2 require that the flow of request units is half-duplex flip-flop[1] as corresponds to normal human conversations - except in some cultures as my students were often quick to point out! There is a logical baton which at any one time is in the possession of one side of the session and only the side which possesses the baton may send a request unit (RU) - with one crucial exception. The baton is passed between the two with the change direction indicator in the RH - and, since as I was preparing this response I have been keeping an eye on what has been happening on the track in the Bird's Nest, SNA doesn't drop the baton - nor does it allow any violation of the protocols concerning when it can be handed over! [1] There is another flavour of half-duplex, half-duplex contention, but this is not available to LU type 2. When the other side is in possession of the baton, the baton can be requested using the Signal RU. It is up to the side receiving the Signal RU what it cares to do about it. The protocol is there in order to enable whatever work is being performed in conjunction with the current transaction to be interrupted. Whatever is done is under the control of the application running in the side in possession of the baton so that it can take whatever steps are necessary to ensure that the interruption is a clean one - with respect to the state of any data base involved for example. Once the application has performed whatever work is necessary on having received a Signal RU - assuming it is not simply ignored, an RU can be sent with carries the change direction indicator in the RH to the side where, typically, the 3270 end-user is working. The end-user can now initiate a fresh transaction. Those who are keeping up with this description will have spotted that, in addition to carrying the change direction indicator, the RH will also carry the end bracket indicator. How does the 3270 end-user, having decided that whatever he/she set up as the current transaction was, to judge from the time it is taking, a big mistake, stop the waste of time and resources and cause the Signal RU to be sent? The answer is the Attn key - or whatever function is provided by the 3270 emulator to mimic pressing the Attn key such as dextrous clicking on an icon in a right button menu. As implied by the preamble to all this, the answer applies strictly only when the protocols associated with LU type 2 are in use. The answer may extend to TN3270 but only when TN3270*E* protocols are in use since these provide for simulation of the Attn key. The following is from RFC 2355: quote 11. The 3270 ATTN Key The 3270 ATTN key is interpreted by many host applications in an SNA environment as an indication that the user wishes to interrupt the execution of the current process. The Telnet Interrupt Process (IP) command was defined expressly for such a purpose, so it is used to implement support for the 3270 ATTN key. This requires two things: - TN3270E clients should provide as part of their keyboard mapping a single key or a combination of keys that map to the 3270 ATTN key. When the user presses this key(s), the client should transmit a Telnet IP command to the server. - TN3270E servers should translate the IP command received from a TN3270E client into the appropriate form and pass it along to the host application as an ATTN key. In other words, the server representing an SLU in an

TPX and two RACF systems
We run a sysplex that has two separate RACF databases. One database supports our test and development systems (3 LPARS) and the other supports our production systems (2 LPARS).

The best place to start is by reading the Infoprint Server User's Guide, S544-5746-08, Chapter 8. Printing from Windows systems, which has instructions for installing and configuring the Infoprint Port Monitor. Port 515 is the default port, and the hostname (or IP address) will be the address of the TCP/IP stack supporting Infoprint Server on your host system, for which you'll need to consult your systems programmer. If your PSF printer is on another system, you will need to be sure your Infoprint Server administrator has configured a printer definition that will route your job to the system running PSF (or if JES2 shared spool, the correct JES work selection). The printers you see in the Port Monitor (when you have the right port and address you will see a list of printers) are actually printer definitions in the Infoprint Server Printer Inventory. They represent logical printers, and you need to know which one is the correct definition to use for submitting MO:DCA jobs (that's what the AFP Print Driver produces) to the correct DEST/FORMS/CLASS for your PSF-driven Infoprint 4000 printer.

Re: Trying to figure out IEAMSCHD
If that is the case - I think you might be trying to run before you can walk. I think you be better served, perhaps, writing yourself a program to store and access data in a dataspace before you start playing with SRBs - the MVS Extended Addressability manual is a good place to start. Once you are familiar with that style of cross-memory programming (it will get you used to STOKENs, ALETs, access regs etc etc) - then perhaps you will be more comfortable with what is required for SRB routines.

Re: JCL parser
John McKown wrote: Just to prove that I am indeed insane, I am attempting to write a JCL parser using the flex (lexical analyzer generator) and bison (parser generator) programs on Linux. Again, this is just so that I can learn how to use those tools, not for anything necessarily productive. However, on the off chance that I actually succeed, does anybody think that donating this to the CBT would be worth while? If so, what should the parser output be? I was thinking either a tree structure which describes the JCL, or maybe the JCL converted to an XML format output. What say ye? Hi John, flex on an ASCII box will not generate a lexer that works in an EBCDIC environment; so you'll need to address that... I'd suggest writting the lexer by-hand, it's not difficult to knock out a regular-expression based parser, and you can handle the various hosting issues pretty straightforwardly. Of course, bison deals in tokens - which are sufficiently abstract to not have ASCII/EBCDIC issues. By the way - you can download flex/bison utilities that run on MVS from the 'freebies' section on our web site. - Dave Rivers - -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]Work: (919) 676-0847 Get your mainframe programming tools at http://www.dignus.com -- 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: Trying to figure out IEAMSCHD
Lindy, I have to agree with Rob, at a minimum read the Extended Addressability manual, it is a good place to start on ALET's and STOKEN's. Basically an STOKEN is a 64 bit IPL span unique identifier for a SPACE (address, data or hiper) in z/OS. An ALET is a value that is used to link two spaces together via synchronous cross memory, and is loaded into an access register (AR) to allow one to access another space. One requirement is that if the target space is an address, or a dataspace owned by another address space, then the target address space or owning address space needs to be non-swappable for the duration of the operation. While this project is somewhat less work than your prior ones, it is still a big swamp full of hungry croc's that you are wading into (with apologies to Chris Craddock for shamelessly stealing a warning).

sFTP from/to z/OS best practices
Hi Everyone, I'm looking for some advice on how best to set up users. We are using the SSH version (under INETD). Right now we have successfully set up JCL to copy files from z/OS to an OMVS directory and then using sftp, PUT it to another server. We have also successfully set up JCL to use sftp to GET a file from another server and then copy it to z/OS. We set up a large directory under a separate HFS file to hold the files. So as long as we drive the train there's no problem. Now comes the decisions, we have a user (outside our agency) that also has outside users that will want to send their files via logon and sFTP to OMVS. (vs. our user logging on their system to GET the file) We need to set up some type of area that our users (user's) can each place their files but that can't be accessed by the other outside users. As a test we tried to create a file that has permissions where only the creating user can see the file. The real problem comes in here, when our user tries to get the file out of OMVS, they can't because they don't have permission. We thought of giving her access to each file via a group, but if OMVS is like LINUX, there is a limit as to how many groups you can be attached to (26 on LINUX). Since our user may have more than that, we're not sure how to handle this. Does anyone have any suggestions or way around this? (we are not strong in OMVS) Thanks in advance for you help!

Re: Trying to figure out IEAMSCHD
Well basically the ASCB is always below the 16Mib line, so in 3.1 they decided to create a 31 bit extension block, the ASSB. The ASXB on the other hand, is in the LSQA, not the SQA, so only contains fields that don't need to be accessed from outside of the address space, and is swappable (granted, with all supported versions of z/OS, physical swapping is a thing of the past). Also, I would be remiss if I didn't point out that the ASSBSTKN is NOT part of the programming information. That doesn't mean that it can't be used, just don't be surprised if IBM won't support you if problems occur.

If you have defined the LPAR on the HMC in the image profile with reserved engines of the desired type them you can do a CF CP(n),ONLINE. Do a D M=CPU. The CPS with the hyphen are reserved and could be configured online.

We went from a 2096-F01 to 2096-F02 and added a zAAP. I'd really like to add these w/o shutting down.

Re: Trying to figure out IEAMSCHD
I started working on this March 2nd. And with people's kind help and working on it all night I've managed to submit a batch job that crashes my TSO session. (-: It's probably time to call it a night, er, morning. Here is the main part of my code that does the trick. STOKEN is primed with the ASSDSTKN from my TSO address space. MODESET KEY=ZERO,MODE=SUP STORAGE OBTAIN,LENGTH=2,SP=227 LR R5,R1 MVC 0(2,R5),=X'07FE' IEAMSCHD EPADDR=(R5), ENV=STOKEN,TARGETSTOKEN=STOKEN Don't know why it crashed, though. It should have just BR 14'd. At least I know it's coming into my address space and fooling around with something it shouldn't. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tom Harper Sent: 23. elokuuta 2008 5:39 To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: Re: Trying to figure out IEAMSCHD Lindy, If you're not running in a different target address space, it doesn't matter. But think for a moment about what running in a different address space means. Your private doesn't look like the target private. Be careful copying a program over. Do you have anything that needs re-locating? I would use directed LOAD.
