Ca Faver for Z/os

2008-04-02 Thread Carl Edwards
Hello;
I hope this is the correct forum to post this.
I have a number of files from a VSE system that are
backed up using FAVER2. Faver2 is compattable with
Faver on Z/os. The bckup contains VSAM, Vsam/Sam and
Sam files. The manual (Z/os) states that all of these
files can be restored, the problem is it gives no info
on hoe to do it. There are tons of documentation on
restoring VSAM files, but for the others, none.

So the question is, has anyone done it, know how to do
it.  I kow it can be doe.
Thanks
 Carl

IMS DLI Option

2008-02-11 Thread Carl Edwards
Hi;
Am using IMS(V9) and am a little confused. From what I
read in the manual when using th DLI option you have
to specify include DD statements for the Databases in
th JCL stream. We use the DLI option and do NOT
include the DD statements, yet we appear to be working
ok.
//STEP0060 EXEC
PGM=DFSRRC00,PARM=('DLI,BFBPOLR,PSBB32C,,0100,,0,')
 

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance

First thought that came to mind, but not the case. BTW

Not an OPTION. Tape is created on VSE system using

IDCAMS Repro vs ICETOOL

2008-01-15 Thread Carl Edwards
We have a series of jobs that use IDCAMS to move data
from one platform to another. There are several
hundred files stacked on tape, which was created by
REPRO. These tapes are then read by the Z/os target
system and loaded to the appropriate files. While the
jobs runs, they seems to run forever. We have noticed
that the job goes into DW for 3-5 seconds at the end
of each REPRO process, allocation/deallocation I
assume. If indeed this is the case then using another
program such as ICETOOL should not matter, the results
should be the same. Is this assumption valid?

IMS/DLI PreProcessor

2007-04-24 Thread Carl Edwards
I am in the process of moving an IMS application from
VSE to Z/os. The system I am working on does NOT have
the latest Cobol Compiler, hence no integrated
transltors. I have a number of programs BATCH and CICS
that use the EXEC DLI ...  construct. I am looking for
the DLI preprocessor that converts the EXEC ...
commands. All of the manuals I have refer to the
DLI/CICS Option of the Compiler.
TIA

Adrdssu Reorg of KSDS files

2007-04-04 Thread Carl Edwards
I have a client that wants to move from Faver to
ADRDSSU. A question arose re the reorging of VSAM
files. The question is. Using ADRDSSU for Backup and
Restore, will the files be reorged on the Retore?
The manual states fairly clearly that using ADRDSSU to
COPY files will reult in a reorg, could not find same
thing for a Restore.

TIA

Dorting multiple VSAM and PS files

2007-01-31 Thread Carl Edwards
I have recently migrated a small VSE system to Z/os.

evrything went well with one exception.
The VSE Sort program was able to sort a variety of
files, mixed SAM and VSAM in one pass. This is not
supported in Z/OS (DFSORT).

I can write an E15 exit to handle this, but I am
somewhat amazed that this cabability does not exist in
Z/os.
Has anyone else encounterd this issue?

AFP Printing on VM from Z/os

2006-11-22 Thread Carl Edwards
We are trying to print AFP reports routed from our
Z/os system to a VM system. The data prints as does
the overlay, however we are not getting the fonts as
defined by the TRC, hence the data and the overlay do
not line up. It appears that the TRC setting is not
being recognized.

BTW.
If we upload the data directly to the VM system and
print, it comes out file.

Z/os V1R6
NJE

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

Sharing PDSEs

We are running Z/os V6 under VM, multiple Z/os images.

A number of our libraries are PDSEs. 
We get 213-70 errors on occasion. 
213-70 'OPEN detected a cross-system share conflict
for the PDSE. '

The SYS1.PARMLIB(IGDSMS02) is set to
 PDSESHARING(NORMAL)   
and according to how I read the doc it should be set
toPDSESHARING(EXTENDED), however when we set it to
extended it was not a pretty sight. We do not have a
CF
Questions.
Is a CF required for this to work?
Is it handeled differently under VM/LPAR mode. LPAR is
our eventual environment.
TIA
