Re: Need to cap my software costs
I'm not sure that the overhead for the hard caps would be a measurable difference. I tried to measure it as a test on the z9 here, and I can't see any real difference. Maybe I just need a much higher test load, but it doesn't appear to be a significant hit, (if any at all).

Ed, Since you say you have TCPIP already, you might try something like this for a light weight solution: LPRSET techp...@9.17.108.37 lpr 'SERVE2.BOLAN.P71900.H2.TEMP2.PDF' ( binary Where LPRSET defines the printer IP address to TCPIP for you and the lpr command passes the data to the printer. The above works for me with a printer that can process PDF directly.Check the help for the TCPIP LPR command for options. It does have an option for handling carriage control.

SHARE Session 8194: z390 and zcobol Portable Mainframe COBOL Compiler written in structured macro assembler
Here is something new and something old for 2009. Come to SHARE session 8194 in Austin TX on March 3, 2009 at 8 AM for the first live demonstration of zcobol portable mainframe COBOL compiler which is written in z390 structured conditional macro assembler. zcobol supports multiple dialects of mainframe COBOL with the option to generate source and executable program code in any one of the following target languages: 1. HLASM compatible mainframe assembler for z390/z9/z10 2. Java for any J2SE platform 3. C++ for Windows platforms 4. HLA/MASM assembler for Intel platforms The intermediate source code generated by the zcobol compiler includes all data labels and paragraph labels for use in debugging when required. The initial release of zcobol is focused primarily on generating HLASM compatible assembler source and executable programs. The first release includes support for static and dynamic linking of both COBOL and assembler programs, EXEC CICS, and extensions for SOA messaging support to run called programs on remote servers. There are demo programs which can be compiled and executed in all 4 target language environments. And there are a rapidly growing number of regression tests. There is a dynamically loaded zcobol runtime module for complex functions and all the source code is included. Starting March 3, 2009, zcobol will be included in z390 releases and can be downloaded via www.z390.org. For more information on zcobol, visit www.zcobol.org and join the user discussion group: zcobol-subscr...@yahoogroups.com zcobol is an open source project on sourceforge.net and volunteer developers interested in expanding zcobol support include code generation, code optimization, regression testing, documentation, demos, training materials, etc. are all welcome. Melvyn Maltz and I will be at SHARE for the presentation and demo and look forward to seeing you there.

Good, I'm glad to know that was a feature :-) Actually, for jobs of reasonable size, say under 25-50 pages and infrequent enough that the printer could rest a few minutes every few jobs, we didn't have any scalability issues. It uses lpr/lpq and from what I remember, that protocol can just go to sleep for a few minutes on a printer. If your arrival rate is too high when that occurs, you can't catch up. 90% of our problems were the same old printer issues, unpluged, off, out of paper, gone, firewalled, it never ends and it doesn't matter what software is driving them.

Re: Need to cap my software costs
I believe that I have seen an 'under load' effect when trying to manage low use LPARs. Consider an LPAR that loafs along slurping a mere 3 MUS's and that is quite enough for its mission. But if I soft cap that LPAR at, say, 4, and it spikes to, say 10, then the cap is hit within an interval or two. Compare to an LPAR gulping 20 or so and then spiking to 100. It takes that LPAR a considerable time for the rolling average to climb to a cap of, say, 80. Now this is just a perception and I have not done any measurements but it is something I think about as I evaluate candidate hard capping and soft capping values. Perhaps one of the math whizzes on the forum could comment. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Al Sherkow Sent: Tuesday, December 30, 2008 10:47 AM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Re: Need to cap my software costs You are correct that you do not have LPAR Group Capacity limits with z/OS 1.7. You can cap those small LPARs but you must use a soft cap on the 'most loved LPAR' also. Otherwise that will drive the box to 100% (if there is workload that wants that capacity).

Re: Need to cap my software costs
You are correct that you do not have LPAR Group Capacity limits with z/OS 1.7. You can cap those small LPARs but you must use a soft cap on the 'most loved LPAR' also. Otherwise that will drive the box to 100% (if there is workload that wants that capacity). The max 4HRA for invoicing is simultaneous across the LPARs within any hour. The limit of this number is the sum of the defined capacities. You might want to both hard cap and soft cap the small LPARs. Al Sherkow, I/S Management Strategies, Ltd.

Need to cap my software costs
We have a temporary need to cap our overall rolling four hour average until the new box arrives. We are running z/os 1.7 on a z/9 and, as far as I know, don't have the ability to do that. Our particular mission has one most loved LPAR that we'd prefer to run at the expense of all else. We have enough power so that we are worried only about some occasional spikes that the normal soft capping won't handle to suit us. I know this has been discussed before, but I'm wondering what the current consensus might be for our situation. For example, what if I really skew the weights such that the unloved LPAR's are starved if the most loved needs the cycles. If the unloved LPARS are starved, then they should not be able to rack up MSU's and thus lower my total. Thanks The very best of the season to you, yours, and theirs.

Re: Find CLASS and MSGCLASS
As far as I know there is no command to tell you what a jobclass definition is for a specific shop. The system (JES2 or JES3) will have A-Z, 0-9 for any job class, msgclass. The $DJOBCLASS( ) will tell you about a specific class. For example $djobclass(a),long $djobclass(a),long $HASP837 JOBCLASS(A) $HASP837 JOBCLASS(A) ACCT=NO,AUTH=(ALL),BLP=NO, $HASP837 COMMAND=DISPLAY,COPY=NO, $HASP837 DUPL_JOB=DELAY,HOLD=NO,IEFUJP=YES, $HASP837 IEFUSO=YES,JESLOG=(NOSPIN), $HASP837 JOURNAL=YES,LOG=YES,MODE=JES, $HASP837 MSGLEVEL=(0,1),OUTDISP=(,), $HASP837 OUTPUT=YES,PERFORM=000,PGMRNAME=NO, $HASP837 PROCLIB=00,QAFF=(ANY),QHELD=NO, $HASP837 RESTART=NO,REGION=0001M,SCAN=NO, $HASP837 SCHENV=,SWA=ABOVE,TIME=(30,00), $HASP837 TYPE26=YES,TYPE6=YES,XBM=, $HASP837 XEQCOUNT=(MAXIMUM=*,CURRENT=0), $HASP837 XEQMEMBER(IBM1)=(MAXIMUM=*, $HASP837 CURRENT=0) Shows you the information about Jobclass A. It does not however tell you if this is for long running jobs, production, test and so on. If that is the information you are looking for, you need to find your companies documentaion for CLASS and MSGCLASS paramenters. It is possible that it is documented in the JES2 parms. But that may not have kept up with the system over time. To code a jobcard you need to know the installations standards. Once you know that, you can code your jobcard. If this does not help, please provide an example of what you are looking to do. Some tricks to find types of classes, in SDSF issue H ALL with no prefix and no owner.

Have always been curious to know MSGCLASS is the SYSOUT class to use for the job log. You can list the sysout classes in a JES2 system with $d outclass.

Re: RO command query
Tommy, I realize your English may not be the best, but Lizette is correct. How would have anyone realized your question was related to sysrexx? As a matter of fact, you asked if anything change in z/OS 1.9 with the RO command via SDSF. Is this an SDSF issue or System REXX issue? If SDSF, there could be several reasons I can think of off the top of my head why the display doesn't come back to you. You could have a duplicate EMCS console name in SDSF active on another LPAR in the sysplex, your console response delay could be set at 0 or you may not be authorized for ULOG. You control the first 2 with SDSF settings (see the OPTIONS pull down menu). ULOG authority comes from ISFPARMS / ISFPRMxx / security software.

Hi, I've replied you directly to your mail but in any case... As far as I know, RMF monitor III has info about special processors in System Information and Processor Usage view while CPC doesn't show any info about spec. proc. We're running 1.8 also. If you'd like to analyze IIP info from RMF monitor III, we've an easy form to obtain the info: you must execute hardcopy command, to save the dataset and finally creating an easy rexx program to extract the info. I recommend you to activate the RMF Data Portal. It's very useful if you are running in a monoplex and you can't access to TSO.

Re: Find CLASS and MSGCLASS
>I have always thought about finding the class and the msgclass >myself for creating our own jobcard. Do someone know how to find >them ? What do you mean by "finding the class and msgclass"? JES supports 36 jobclasses (i.e. classes) named A thru Z and 0 thru 9. It is solely up to the installation which jobclasses are being used at all and what for. JES supports 36 outclasses (i.e. msgclasses) named A thru Z and 0 thru 9. It is solely up to the installation which outclasses are being used at all and what for. Typically different jobclasses are assigned for different kinds of batch work, e.g. test jobs, production jobs, etc. Outclasses are assigned for output to be hold, others for output to be printed (and punched in earlier times). Different print classes may be assigned to denote different kinds of output. Some outclasses may be used to send output to archiving systems. You need to ask at your site for the corresponding doc which tells you how the classes are "defined" at your installation. -- Peter Hunkeler CREDIT SUISSE -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
