Re: And you ask why I hate OMVS?
Hi Barbara Either from within SDSF with the PS panel or from within OMVS and issuing the ps -ef are you able to see what the User is executing, Regards Gerard Ceruti may the 'z' be with you SharePoint (internal) -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Barbara Nitz Sent: 23 June 2009 11:23 To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: And you ask why I hate OMVS? This past weekend I had the dubious honour of shutting down and IPLing 5 systems, two of them with USS work. The shutting down part was really bad (now I know why our operators keep complaining). One lpar has my favourite hate-application running (called WBIFN, for all you European SWIFT customers). Around seven minutes into the shutdown (another lpar with similar workload but not this appliaction was already down after 7 minutes) D A,L revealed that there were some DB2s plus WBIFN still running plus the necessary system infrastructure. And one thing with the jobname of a TSO user, but OMVSEX in the step info, so the userid belonged to some USS process? thread? application? And they seemend to multiply while I was looking at them. Canceling any of them didn't really help, never mind that the duplicate jobname requires using the asid, which requires a list first. By the time I get around to killing the pid, it's already gone. Then I saw that *something* still had open DB2 threads, for which automation has made provisions and forces things out. So I thought that this must be related to this user. Given that I couldn't stop it from multiplying, much less get out of the system (f bpxoinit,shutdown=forkinit was replied with 'shutdown delayed'), I shut down the fork service. That stopped the multiplication, but a few of those 'user asids with a number' were still around. And it was a VERY bad idea to shutdown the fork service, as that effectively prevented WBIFN from terminating eventually (it never terminates in a timely manner, anyway). I ended up canceling things, which generated tons of coredumps which filled the directory, which eventually prevented the startup of this application. (And no, these useless coredumps cannot be prevented, believe me, I've tried.) The good news was that after 20 minutes I had WBIFN and that userid shut down, and then automation did the rest (in the case of our operators, they never get automation to do 'the rest'). So how are other installations handling system shutdown when there are active USS users (or at least their leftover processes)? For a 'pure' MVS, I can shutdown TSO and the Initiators, cancel any running batch jobs, and I am done. But how do I stop the USS things from multiplying? And this Tuesday, that users leftover processes are back. I tried killing the top one (right under ppid=1), but that only resulted in another process under ppid=1 (that killed process was just dropped). superkill didn't help, either. Isn't there any surefire way to get the whole tree stopped in one fell swoop? (and no, I won't kill pid 1). (An OMVS ignoramus is asking this, so please be gentle with me) Best regards, Barbara -- 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 _ Standard Bank email Disclaimer and confidentiality note This e-mail, its attachments and any rights attaching hereto are, unless the content clearly indicates otherwise, the property of Standard Bank Group Limited and its subsidiaries.

Indeed it is a technical limitation. The DVD-RAM loads from the DVD drive in the HMC and the z10 interface to the DVD is much, much faster than the interface in the older hardware.

If security is an issue you could use either IPSec tunnels between the two systems or setup IBM SecureFTP server (SSL'ed FTP). Bruce Baxter wrote: We've routinely exhanged files with business partners running on z/OS machines using tape for years. We're now in the process of converting a number of these to electronic means, using in part FTP. This is being done at the behest of one of our business partners, who (IMHO) hasn't thought through all the issues that the use of FTP introduces in this process. The central issue as I see it is that the mainframes at either end of the pipeline are both EBCDIC and record oriented, and the servers and ftp processes that lie between them to facilitate these transfers do not have any inherent concept of record oriented files like the mainframe. I'm going to treat FIXED BLOCK data separately from VARIABLE BLOCKED data separately. The first files that we received were FIXED BLOCK, and had been translated from EBCDIC to ASCII, most likely at the first transfer of the file from z/OS to an ASCII based server platform (either Windows or AIX). When they arrived on our z/OS system, we had issues of data corruption because the data contained zoned decimal data. After some discussion, we agreed that we'd transfer these files in BINARY mode at all steps along the way. Thus, all we had to do was ensure that the LRECL used for the destination dataset on z/OS was the same as the source dataset. This seems to be working OK. Most recently, we've been having problems with other files that are VARIABLE BLOCKED. We received the first of these files last week, transmitted from end- to-end in BINARY mode. What we got was not at all what we expected. We've discovered that the initial FTP from z/OS to the server stripped off all information regarding record length and thus record delineation.

Re: db2 lock structures duplexing
This is a it depends on your infrastructure we do duplex the SCA and LOCK only , we have ICF's active on all our footprints and an Active member of the DB2 Data Sharing group on each CEC , in discussion with IBM we where informed that DB2 would not be able to rebuild the SCA and LOCK data in we had a CEC failure and one of the Active sharing members went down as well.

Pawel, If you have only ICF LPARs contained in the same CECs that run the MVS images in question, you MUST duplex the structures. Overhead may be a pain point but it is not a variable in your decision.. Failure to duplex exposes you to recovery hell if you lose an entire CEC. Having said that, I cannot recall losing an entire CEC in this millennium. Still, it's a situation Dr. Murphy would rub his hands and chortle over. In the case of DB2, he will do his own duplexing because (I believe) the critical need for duplexing was recognized and addressed by them before system managed duplexing went GA. The books will tell you which structures to duplex, which by system and which by 'user', as well as structures like ISGLOCK (GRS) that do not need duplexing.

We previously ( June 1998 to October 2004 ) had used XRC to a site about 900 'cable miles' away. One of the 'operational issues' we had to deal with was the fact that XRC being asynchronous might cause our D/R solution to be seconds to possibly a minute or more 'behind' the 'write activity' of the production site. We didn't XRC the JES2 Checkpoint/Spool volumes at that time ( our PPRC/SRDF solution does now ) so that wasn't an issue. The thing I liked about XRC was the 'time consistency' of the data, even across multiple storage subsystems ( we had 4 HDS 7700E's, 1 HDS9960 1 HDS9980V ). So, XRC will make sure that the data is written to the XRC Secondary DASD volumes in the same exact order they were written to the XRC Primary DASD volumes. The question becomes: How does JES2 react during startup when it attempts to access the primary CF resident Checkpoint dataset and that attempt fails? Have you tried that failure scenario at your primary site on a 'sandbox' z/OS system? For example, while JES2 is running at the primary site, SYSTEM RESET CLEAR the z/OS image AND SYSTEM RESET CLEAR the CF LPAR that contains the primary checkpoint ( simulates a site failure at the primary site ). Then IPL z/OS and restart JES2, see what messages/WTORs JES2 issues.
