TPC-R
Hi All, Background: implementing TPC-R 4.1.1 on an IBM 2805 (SSPC) with WIN 2003 OS for two DS8700s, mainframe attached. Q1: Can copy sets (volume pairs) be added to a session that is already running (i.e. in prepared state)? Q2: Can a primary volume in a Global Mirror copy set (i.e. relationship) be taken offline from the mainframe to be initialized, then brought back online to the mainframe and continue its GM relationship? If NOT, can that copy set be altered somehow to allow user to INIT the volume and resume the GM copy? - Situation is that the customer wants to only manage one session for the entire disk subsystem and wants to be able reinitialize free primary volumes on the fly. Thanks!

Re: Bruce Black passed away
I am sorry to hear of Bruce's passing. The things that always struck me when I spoke with him were: - his incredible knowledge - his ability to transmit that knowledge in understandable terms/language - his attitude of being of service to others - his respectfulness toward others regardless of their level(s) of knowledge. May he rest in peace and blessings to his family, friends and co-workers who knew him personally. -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html

Re: Implementing a Tape Library with HSM
ARC0706I BACKUP OF VOLUME SYS200 AT 10:17:28 ON 2006/09/29 TERMINATED, NO TAPE DAILY BACKUP VOLUME AVAILABLE We have made every change we can think of to ARCCMD00, the SMS data and storage classes and the storage group for the ATL, and to the ACS routines (data class, storage class, storage group). We want to use a global storage pool since we're going to the ATL. Q: Do we have to do an ADDVOL for every tape in the ATL or is there a parm we should be using (SETSYS?) to tell HSM to use all of the tapes in the ATL as it's pool? -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
Implementing a Tape Library with HSM
Hi folks, We're trying to implement an IBM 3494 ATL with an existing HSM. We've made all of the changes, etc. suggested in the Redbook,IBM TotalStorage Enterprise Tape: A Practical Guide (SG24-4632), section 5.3.14 DFSMShsm Customization. We were getting ARC0709I DATA SET BACKUP TASK TERMINATED, NO DAILY BACKUP VOLUME AVAILABLE - so we did an ADDVOL 32 UNIT(3490-1) BACKUP DAILY (4)). Where 32 is a tape volser in the ATL and DAILY(4) is/was today in the backup cycle. Now, we aren't getting any messages in the HSM output but, we also aren't getting the backup. My hunch is that we aren't catching the correct data set name HLQ and 2LQ in our storage class ACS routine. That brings up one question (of many): is there a way to find out what HSM is using for the DSN of its backup file? We checked the BACKUPPREFIX value and it seems to be okay (no errors flagged for it on HSM start up). I'm betting some/several of you have gone through this exercise. Your input would be appreciated. If you want to send any extensive response and prefer email, feel free to contact me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks all, Doyle -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html

Re: OSA-ICC Attachmate
I have had customers who used Attachmate successfully but it did take some tinkering with the model setting and the screen size (number of rows and columns). fyi...you probably know that IBM states that PROCOMM is the supported terminal emulator and while others may work, they won't support them.

Re: Simple OSA-Express question.....
Hi, Arturo is correct that you can define one or both of the OSA ports that you will get with the new OSA card. You will need to find out what PCHIDs will be assigned to those ports so that you can correctly define them with the CHPIDs. You should be able to get the PCHID numbers from your SSR or sales rep. Also, do you mean that you have one ESCON channel (CHPID) remaining or did you mean that there is one slot remaining which is where the new OSA card will be placed? ESCON and OSA are two separate channel types and they come on separate cards. The OSA card has two ports (or CHPIDs) per card. The ESCON card has 16 ports per card (15 are useable, 1 is a spare). -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
