Re: Simple VTAM-Question?

2008-10-15 Thread Earl Buhrmester
For your TN3270 server you don't need to cycle the server, just refresh 
the profile.  Any new connections will pick up the new USS table.
  V TCPIP,TN3270,O,PROFILE.DATA.SET

For VTAM, use the following
   F NET,TABLE,OPTION=LOAD,NEWTAB=TABNAME

Simple VTAM-Question?






All,

I've modified my VTAM Logon Screen and now want to activate it. Is 
this possible without an IPL? I guess I have to do a F LLA,REFRESH and 
then to restart the TN3270-Server. But what do I have to do for the 
real 3270-Terminals? Restart VTAM? How?


Thank you - guess it is a simple question for VTAM-Guys but I'm pretty 
new in this area


Bye,
Michael

Re: TN3270 port change

2008-09-17 Thread Earl Buhrmester
Scott,

Try this.  Logon to tso on that lpar and from a ready prompt enter TELNET 
xx.xx.xx.xx  1234 and see if you can connect.  That will tell you if the 
TN3270 server is functioning on that port.  You might also turn on debug 
in the TN3270 server.

TN3270 port change






Hi all,

I just migrated from z/OS 1.6 to z/OS 1.9. My question is as follows:

Our 1.6 system used a port other than 23 for TN3270 sessions. The port 
also 
was a non-secure port. I tried the sane methodology, i.e.; changed port 23 
to
port 1234 ( example ) in TCPIP profile and the TN3270 address space STC 
parms. I see TN3270 listening but can't connect..what am I missing. I 
tried 
inside our firewall and outside. I also noticed, I cannot ping the z/OS 
system 
or can't ping the Ethernet segement it is attached...

Thanks in advance...

Scott

Re: OBEYFILE Question

2008-09-08 Thread Earl Buhrmester
You can unreserve those ports by creating a member named DELPORTS with the 
following (where xx is the name in your existing profile where you 
have the ports reserved).  Use obeyfile against your ipstack, pointing to 
DELPORTS.

 DELETE PORT 5150 TCP xxx 
 DELETE PORT 2112 TCP xxx 


You can P/S TN3270 to cycle the task.

Re: OBEYFILE Question






 Hi,
 We just migrated to z/OS 1.9. I have two ports reserved for use with
 the IBM Debug Tool, ports 5150 and 2112 in my TCPIP profile. I had
 this defined from z/OS 1.7. When TN3270 starts I am getting bind
 errors for these ports RC=6F. I am thinking that since they are
 reserved in the TCPIP profile when TN3270 starts it can't bind on
 these. I specify these ports in the TELNET section of my TN3270
 member. I want to unreserve these ports. Can I do it with an OBEYFILE
 command against the TCPIP address space ? Also, can the TN3270 address
 space be cancelled and restarted ? or do you use a P command against
 it. Where are the rules documented regarding reserving a port and not
 reserving one. I am thinking if it's hardcoded you don't reserve it
 like in this case, where no one would be able to dynaically select it.
 Please advise (Can you sense a bit of panic?).
 TIA

FTP from windows to z/os error code 451






Hello all, I am trying to FTP an LCDS type file from a windows server to a 
z/OS 
1.7 mainframe and then submit jcl to print that dataset using iebgener 
however, I keep getting the following error :

451
Error error closing the data set. File is catalogued.
Explanation:
The MVS data set did not close successfully. The data set was catalogued.
error is not meaningful.

System action:
FTP continues processing.

User response:
Change the CONDDISP setting with a SITE subcommand if you do not want 
data sets to be catalogued when file transfers fail. See the z/OS 
Communications Server: IP User's Guide and Commands for information about 
the SITE subcommand.

System programmer response:
None.


Here are the commands I am passing :

quote mode b
quote type e
quote site recfm=vbm
put c:\tmp\META2113 'META2113.LCDS.FILE'
quote mode s
quote type a
quote site recfm=fb lrecl=80 blksize=27920
quote site filetype=jes
site jeslrecl=80
put c:\tmp\FTP.JCL.2113
bye
quit


I am verifying that the mainframe file is not cataloged prior to the ftp 
so the 
message is somewhat  misleading.
Any ideas/suggestions would be appreciated.

Best regards,
Gil.

So how do you control the the offload on the individual OSAs ?   By

Re: TCPIP Segmentation Offload






We have segmentation offload, microcode level 087D, running on eight of
our OSAs for the last two weeks. We have eight LPARs, each with one
tcpip stack. Each stack has two OSAs connected to it, with one running
segmentation offlad and the other without it. It will be some time in
JULY before I start segmentation offload on the second OSA.

We enabled SEGMENTATIONOFFLOAD on the sandbox (z/OS 1.9) yesterday, but
there's very little TCPIP load on the sandbox (still doing IVP of 1.9,
and post-installation cleanup).  Maybe we can cobble up something that
should stress it to the breaking point (maybe FTP-ing some SMF offload

We have a load of about 10% on the OSA's and still the segmentation
offload managed to crash both shared osa's and managed to make most
production-hosts unreachable.
Of course this happened during the night in my standby week. :/

I wont activate it until I'm convinced that the risk of the same
problems occuring is very very very small.

Does your sandbox share OSAs with production lpars?   When we encountered

Re: TCPIP Segmentation Offload

 This morning, I checked the Exception Letters for our z9 and 
 z10 processors. 
 Both Exception Letters are dated May 28, 2008, and both still 
 say that Segmentation Offload needs to be disabled.
 
 I am not saying that IBM hasn't fixed the problem - I hope 
 they have.  But, the Exception Letters still say the problem 
 is NOT fixed.

Interesting  They're dated three days LATER than the date we
installed the latest ucode (that was supposed to fix the problem).

We enabled SEGMENTATIONOFFLOAD on the sandbox (z/OS 1.9) yesterday, but
there's very little TCPIP load on the sandbox (still doing IVP of 1.9,
and post-installation cleanup).  Maybe we can cobble up something that
should stress it to the breaking point (maybe FTP-ing some SMF offload
datasets or sysdumps?).

Meanwhile, we'll leave it disabled on the other LPARs until we hear
something more reassuring (or determine that we can't break it on the
sandbox).
