Re: Date representations: Y2k revisited
Joel Ewing's responses to my strictures were, as I expected them to be, wholly predictable in character. Dates, even those in the comparatively respectable FIPs- and ANSI-compatible Gregorian descending character-string, mmdd, format inevitably get used; and when they are used ad hoc disaster follows with the same inevitability. Such questions as o what is the day of the week of the date mmdd? o what is the date MMDD ten business days following the date mmdd? o how many business|working days are available between MMDD and mmdd? get asked and answered very badly when a format not designed for computation is used. (I have a rogue's gallery/black museum of COBOL and C and PL/I routines, written by people whose knowledge of calendrical computations was inadequate, that 1) are wrong from time to time and 2) obtain their results using schemes that are so convoluted and bizarre as to be all but unbelievable, unless of course one has seen probability problems approached by undergraduates who have not yet been taught what a Jacobian is.) For reasons that elude me programmers who would never attempt to write their own cosh or present-value subroutine have the chutzpah to do calendrical computations badly. Some of what Mr Ewing says is simply wrong. It does not really matter what epoch origin is chosen provided trhat an organization chooses and adheres to one. Conversions are then trivial. Or again, the argument that a DSN having an unknown epoch origin is opaque while a mmdd value is not is simply naif. Incompletely or inadequately documented routines are, of course, problematic; but they are problematic in a generic way; and the remedy for them is better documentation not adherence to obsolete internal date formats. The Y2k problem provided an opportunity to solve problems that was shirked. Date-processing problems that should have been addressed with respectable technology were instead papered over with dubious windowing schemes and the like. What is past is prologue, and I know of no organization that did significant Y2k remediation that is not now living with the disagreeable consequences of having done it badly. But enough! I have said what I wished to say about this problem.

LIST OF DSNS CREATED PRIOR TO 2010
Good Morning Gentle Readers, Is there a utility that I could use to compile a list of dsns which were created in 2009 or before. My problem is that we do not have the FDR products installed in this partition whic could do the trick. Also, 99% of the dsns are archived to ML2. I was thinking of using IEHLIST etc however that would entail in recalling all the dsns to DASD. I checked the first 3 HLQ's and there are about 150,000 dsns. Should I recall them to dasd I could run the risk of saturating the ML0 volumes. Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

calculation of device usingdelay by RMF
Hi, list, Here is what WLM does: WLM adds, to the address space or enclave using I/O count, the number of dispatchable units that have an I/O operation in the connect state that is moving data through the channel. This is done at every sample. WLM adds, to the address space or enclave delay I/O count, the number of dispatchable units (multiple state) that have an I/O operation in the IOS queue or in pending state (delayed by channel, control unit, or shared DASD device) in the channel subsystem, that is, the channel program that is delayed. This is done at every sample. And WLM removed the disconnect time from sampling at all. Does the above apply to RMF? I cannot find the answer from manuals. Thanks.

Generating a CSR from the HMC
Does anyone know how to generate a CSR (Certificate Signing Request) from the z-Series HMC so I can send it to a certificate authority, which can then return a certificate I can upload onto the HMC so I can utilize a browser to access the HMC? The HMC has some sort of default user-signed SSL certificate that is unacceptable in our environment. I already know Firefox is capable of accepting the certificates in our environment, but Firefox is not a solution our security team will accept. The HMC seems to have the ability to upload an externally-generated certificate, but my security team tells me I have to send them a CSR from the HMC first. Alternatively, the HMC can generate its own user-signed certificates, but those are considered 'unsafe' by the same security group, and are hence rejected out of hand by our Windows Explorer configurations. -- 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

As a result, I got 2098 device zos subset PSP. Problems starts now. Since I need to update out z/os 1.9 to support new z10 that will replace out z800. Migration to a current release will be done over this year, but not now. At bottom of page, I click over Order All option. This option give me a response of 330 pts were selected at Continue bottom, I got ptf numbers. Continue bottom again and is showed Order PTF page to select Eletronic or midia order etc... Since I select to ship Requesits and PE's I finish order. After some time, I receive in my email a list of ordered ptf's. Now I detect problem.

I would recommend that you download the PSPTOOL and use it against a current PSP extract file and your SMP/E target zone. This will give you everything you need.

Re: z/OS 1.11 upgrade - WLM couple datasets
___ Note: This e-mail is subject to the disclaimer contained at the bottom of this message. ___ Hi all, It has always intrigued me whenever there is talk of new Master Catalogs, WLM datasets, Page Datasets etc. being used just to support a new operating system upgrade. My initial thought is always why ? The last time we built a new MCAT for an OP/SYS upgrade was about 7 years ago, for an upgrade of OS/390, don't remember the version, probably 2.4, but the only reason we did this was to move to new dataset naming conventions for Catalogs, IBM and third party software (away from the original conventions and IBM standard prefixes such as CEE and TCPIP etc. Since then we have used the same master catalogs, page dsns, WLM dsns etc. for every upgrade unless actually required to do so, which has been vary rare, and IIRC it was for Sysplex CDS's. When we upgrade to a new version of z/OS (which we now do annually), any new datasets are pre catalogued ahead of time (old ones are uncatalogued afterwards as part of the clean-up process). We have one Master Catalog per Sysplex or LPAR. We install software on our Sysprog Sysplex via serverpacs and then build the Sysres set of resvols (3 mod9's) using DF/DSS. And it's generally just an IPL to bring it in with a few occasional procedures to implement either just before, or just after the IPL. We have procedures to override Parmlib members etc. I am just curious as to why people still create new master catalogs etc when upgrading z/OS as it's hard enough without adding this extra complexity. This is also not meant as a criticism or belittling of anyone's procedures either. Just like to know. Oh, and to answer Alan's question, Assuming you have all the necessary co-req PTFS applied, you would use the existing WLM datasets, and then implement any changes after all members of the sysplex are at the same version. Any changes to WLM would need to be made on a lower level of z/OS I would think.

It is going to be a rolling upgrade. I would like to know how other sites migrate the LPARs to the new WLM couple data sets. Do they only upgrade to the new WLM couple data sets when all the LPARs are upgraded? /snip I would just complete the Roll-thru and then re-install the policy. There is a note in the conversion guide about *possibly needing a larger set of couple datasets due to a change in the record length. See (GA22-74998-15. PP113 (BCP Migration actions - Reallocate the WLM Couple dataset)). From a quick perusal of this item it seems that if you do not have *a lot* (FSVO a lot) of workloads or report classes, you should be unaffected. However, YMMV!

Re: z/OS 1.11 upgrade - WLM couple datasets
If that's what works for you then by all means you should stick with it. I have performed literally hundreds of upgrades and I have never kept the old master catalog as the master for the new system. Mostly it has to do with properly setting up the master catalog in the first place. The only datasets in the master catalog should be those that get shipped with the new OS, the rest should be in usercats. Typically I have a MASTER catalog , and (sometimes) a SYSTEM usercatalog, the rest of the sites datasets belong in other user catalogs. There are a lot of datasets that are new to each release, and the extra time required to remove the old ones will probably never happen if I were to leave the old master in place. I can see where you would be able to keep things going for quite a while with system symbols for most of the important datasets, but eventually you are going to have a bunch of useless entries in your master catalog or things will move and you'll end up taking the chance that you will miss it. There seems to be a lot of chance for things to go wrong, and with all of the other issues involved in a migration, making it more complex, for me, is not a good thing. As I said though, if what you are currently doing works for you, then almost by definition it's correct, for you. Just because I feel it adds complexity, doesn't make me right, in the end, whatever works correctly is what is right. 1+1+1+1+1+1+1 = (5+2) = (4+3) = 14/2 = 7(1) = 7 On the other hand, if you are not using symbols and you are really reusing the same physical page datasets etc. then that's playing with fire.

Re: Date representations: Y2k revisited
If I may Mesuring time is not science or math based, it is observation based. For example in the judeo-christran tradition ... There was night and there was day, the first day. Start of bibical months are observation things ... ie sighting of the new moon. Even in the observation mode there are counting difficulties. For example Passover / Easter occurs in the bibical 15th day of Nissan but is also said to occur in the spring of the year. The difficulty is lunar years and solar years (that control the seasons) only align every 50 lunar years so. To make things work for the bean counters a month is added to the lunar year from time to time but this distroys the sabaticial year cycle of things aligning every 50 years and special bibically proscribed practices for the alignment. Ignoring for a moment that there are problems with the observational method the demands of the modren world (meaning the last 2000 years or so) might be better served by a science or math solution. Such a system has many advantages but is in fact an additional source of mesurement error. Once again telling time is neither math or science based. Attempts to distort this reality have many advantages and disadvantages. Lots of this thread is based on the faulty assumption that there is a scientific or math related correct solution to an observation problem.
