Logic in FTP procedure
Hello, I have a small problem with the following job: a FTP batch jobs runs on a daily base and it should pick up some data, which has the month and year of the preceding month in its name, for example in july 08 it may pick up the dataset XXX0608. This dataset is available around the 8th of july, but I don't know the exact date. I would like to build a procedure which check the actual date and checks if the latest dataset is available, if yes it should get this one, if no it should get the one from the preceding month.

Re: Console restructure an Netview 3.1
- Original Message From: Stephen Wolf [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 19 September, 2008 18:45:20 We just started bringing up z/OS 1.8 in our test LPAR. We discovered our Netview version (3.1 - 5655-007) can no longer issue system commands (message CNZ005I). I believe this is due to the console restructure part 2 contained in z/OS 1.8. Stephen, how is the MSGIFAC= in member DSIDMNK in the DSIPARM ? MSGIFAC must be set to SYSTEM when Netview runs under z/OS 1.8 and up, due to the console restructure.

z890 model upgrade
Hello list, as we heard that upgrading from a 2086-230 to a 2086-270 would cost us 350.000 Euro, we abandoned our consolidating project on the mainframe. The price is, at least for a small company like us, too high, and doesn't take into account the higher sw licence costs which would come along due to more MSUs. Are there guidelines, tools, books, etc. which would help us to estimate whether 3 or 4 CPs (i.e. 2086-350 or 2086-440) less fast would still improve our performance compared with 2 fast CPs like in the 2086-270 ?

Re: SMP/E Receive from NTS problem
The example I used came from the ShopzSeries order I placed a while ago. It had the following control cards. In the manual it also stated to use quotes around order numbers with special characters. RECEIVE FROMNTS( 'ORD1-31May2008-11.38.20' ) /* replace xx with the name of the subdirectory where you placed the package files in the SMPNTS directory */ . This has worked for me.

Now you are talking about either 74 or 62 MSU. It sounds like you are not very sure of your needs. February last year within a 'TryBuy' agreement with IBM we got our z890 upgraded to a 2086-470 to test DB2 under zLinux. In this timeframe I left our PROD LPAR with 2 dedicated CPs for three months (the other two CPs were dedicated to zLinux). So for three months we had de-facto a 2086-270 and everybody was enthusiastic about that. Due to this previous, successful experience, we asked IBM how much this upgrade (from 230 to 270) would cost . Do you have any workloads that can only use one processor and that are constrained because the processor is too slow? The batch window is shrinking. What I don't know is if our jobs have a single TCB architecture or can exploit more CPs in parallel . Do Com-plete and Adabas multitask well? I don't know.

Hi John, In respect of your question:- Does anybody know of any valid JCL statements which are not documented in the JCL manual? So far, I have found the PRINTDEV statement, which is apparently related to AFP printing. I am not aware of any true JCL statements which are not documented in the appropriate place, but I guess one thing that might throw any Parsing exercise are sub-system control statements which appear between // CNTL and // ENDCNTL pairs. I have only investigated this area once and that was in respect of an early implementation of IP Printway.

Maximum Channel Busy Recommendation for 3494 VTS ESCON Attached
We have a 3494 VTS, with 64 virtual 3490 drives, connected with four ESCON channels. At times, we are seeing 80-90% channel usage. I have searched manuals, the web and IBMLink and cannot find a number for what is considered a limit for Escon channel usage. Does anyone know what that number would be? If so, is it documented anywhere?

Re: Slow FTP transfer from z/OS to Unix
Hello, The problem was coming from our OSA card port that was configured Autonegociate and running 100 Mbps half duplex. The router is configured 100 Mbps full duplex and there was a lot of communication collisions because of this mismatch. I configured the OSA card port at 100 Mbps full duplex and now with FTP I could reach 8000 K/sec with Linux and Windows server as well. I don't know why but the impact of this problem was more severe with LINUX. Thanks!

But for general problem solving, I would ensure that files being transferred are all the same. That the direction is the same. I am always suspicious of files, ftp options, network paths (thru routers, cables and firewalls) and MTU. I have seen or been part of a number of bizarre TCP/IP problems over the years and anything you can do to normalize your testing/verification will help yield tests that will uncover the real culprit. problems... firewall rules gone bad, firewall loose cables, tar pits, packet fragments not being accepted, bad routing, excessive retransmitting, ftp bugs, osa bugs, windows bugs (exhausted windows resource causing the IP stack to report errors) .. I am sure that there are some choice ones I am forgetting... like s0c4 on a vba file ftp, port scanners for security killing boxes. Rob p.s.

So, you think 100% is ok and we probably shouldn't worry about it? I haven't done any empirical studies of Tape in years. So, I cannot be 100% sure. But, remember, there is cache on the supporting disk sub-system and it's not truly random access like regular disk. I would check out my tape throughput, and my batch service levels. If they're good, then I wouldn't worry too much about it. There haven't been many tape studies done, lately. The only person I know who was even doing it was Bill Grey of STK (now Sun), and I haven't seen much from him, lately. Try the CMG proceedings; they might have something.

Re: Maximum Channel Busy Recommendation for 3494 VTS ESCON Attached
If there is no queuing on the channel/cu/device), then who cares if it is 100% busy? You just need to be aware that at 100% busy, you can't (ever) go any faster. If SLA's are being missed, then you either need more of the same hardware, or an upgrade to faster hardware (). Many of the old ROTs (Rules of Thumb) had a theoretical basis in the hardware designs of the time. The hardware designs have advanced, and changed the theoretical basis, but we are still using the old ROT's. Base your decisions on what (if anything) is being delayed in the hardware path, not on the ROT!!! The above discussion accounts for the front end of the VTS. The back end of the VTS is also an issue. I cannot speak to the specifics of a 3494 since I don't have one. If the time to retrieve a virtual volume is increased, this indicates either a lack of back end capacity, or VTS cache thrashing. snip I have searched manuals, the web and IBMLink and cannot find a number for what is considered a limit for Escon channel usage.

Re: Maximum Channel Busy Recommendation for 3494 VTS ESCON Attached
I agree with Ted and Allan, that you really need to look at other values as well (throughput, queuing, parallel tape mounts, ..), And then you have the VTS staging/destaging, potential thrashing, .. What about future growth in your workload, the end of month runs. There are very many issues to look at. Bear in mind though, that RMF is showing you average values for an interval. If you're seeing 90% average, then you've certainly had peaks reaching 100% already.

Re: JCL statements not in JCL manual?
John, Terry is right. Strictly speaking, PRINTDEV is a program control statement for a subsystem, not a job control statement.

So far, I have found the PRINTDEV statement, which is apparently related to AFP printing. I am not aware of any true JCL statements which are not documented in the appropriate place, but I guess one thing that might throw any Parsing exercise are sub-system control statements which appear between // CNTL and // ENDCNTL pairs.

Re: VTOC INDEX STATUS : DISABLED
Given the overlapping extents, at least two of your datasets (assuming you don't have a dataset that overlays itself) are suspect as is the free space map. Step 1: Prevent any new allocations. This includes both new datasets and additional extents for existing datasets. V SMS,VOL(xx),DISABLE,NEW restricts new datasets if the pack is SMS managed. Step 2: Obtain a list of extents/associated datasets and identify the datasets that overlap. Step 3: Move all the non-overlapping datasets off this volume and restore the overlapping datasets from the most recent good backup. (Possibly the owners of the overlapping datasets could tell you if either is still good.) Step 4: Find out how this occurred and take corrective action. Depending on the cause, you may want to examine other packs for possible overlap. -Original Message- From: esmie moo Sent: Monday, September 22, 2008 5:59 AM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: VTOC INDEX STATUS : DISABLED Good Morning Gentle Readers, I noticed (via ISMF) that one of our dasd is in DISABLED status under INDEX STATUS.

I think Mark had your answer. Please double-check: BROWSESYS1.PROCLIB(ZFS) Command === * Top of Data //ZFS PROC REGSIZE=0M //* //ZFZGOEXEC PGM=BPXVCLNY,REGION=REGSIZE,TIME=1440 //* Bottom of Data ** Make sure your ZFS started task does NOT have an IOEZPRM DD statement. If there is no IOEZPRM DD statement, then ZFS gets its parms from the system parmlib concatenation - and the exact member and data set name it was fetched from are echoed in SYSLOG at IPL / ZFS startup. BROWSESYS1.PARMLIB(IOEPRM00) - 01.01 Command === * Top of Data *** aggrgrow=on Bottom of Data ** Again, please confirm by looking at your IPL time SYSLOG exactly which IOEPRM00 member, from exactly which system parmlib concatenation data set, was used for ZFS startup.

Calling Assembler module from REXX
Hi I am trying to help a REXX programmer with a CALL to an Assembler routine. I can LINK to an assembler routine successfully, but I cannot make successive calls. The Address LINKMVS feature (as its name suggests) loads in a fresh version of the module on each invocation thereby clearing any values saved from previous CALLs. The module to be called is an interface supplied to OPEN READ and CLOSE a bespoke database. Because of the technique I am using the first call opens OK, but the second call to read a record fails because the database is not open (or so it thinks because the re-loaded module has lost its open indicator). Any ideas please.

SNIP What is the type of linkage for the assembler routine, REUS or RENT or none of the above? What it sounds like is the REXX code is either DELETEing the assembler program, OR, it is linked with NOREUS and so you get a fresh copy each time. The storage that the assembler routine uses - what can it anchor it to? Or what does it expect? Can you provide that storage anchor via the REXX exec by establishing a variable that is set to NULL (and must be 4 bytes)? Then on subsequent calls, pass that same variable and allow the assembler routine to use it. Just a few ideas.

Re: Calling Assembler module from REXX
Suggestions: 1)make the assembler routine re-entrant. Successive LOADS will up the use count, but not actually bring in a new module. 2)pass the called routine a parm that says this is a successive call, not the 1st. 3)if you can't do #2 above, take a look at NAME/TOKEN services. 4)if you can't do #3 above, create another load module that is not re-entrant.

Set indicators in the non re-entrant dummy 0's load module that tells the other one what the status of things are. All good ideas. For a variant of #2 with some influence from #4, let the Rexx routine supply the working storage for the called routine, initialized before the first call. See the use of ChainingVector in SYS1.SAMPLIB(CSFTEST) for an example of the Rexx side of this technique. But none of these deal with the deficiency that Rexx LINKPGM/ATTCHPGM will LOAD and DELETE even a REFReshable load module for each invocation. This causes unwelcome overhead for large numbers of invocations. So, perhaps: 5) Put the routine in LPA if permitted. Would there perhaps be Rexx interfaces to LOAD and DELETE on CBTTAPE (or similar) so the routine could be LOADed and DELETed only once?
