3272 was controller for 3277

3274 was introduced as controller for 3278.

besides other changes from 3272/3277 to 3274/3278, a lot of the electronics 
were moved out of the terminal head and back into the 3274 controller  
reducing manufacturing costs and drastically increasing communication chatter 
over the coax (and reducing response). we complained about the significant 
worse human factors characteristics for
3274 controller. eventually we got a response that 3274/3278 wasn't designed 
for interactive computing ... but for data entry (basically updated keypunch 
technology).

past post with old reference to 3272/3277 & 3274/3278 comparison
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2001m.html#19 3270 protocol

3274 was "slow" in other ways ... it had very high "channel busy"
overhead doing command processing. I did a project for STL (now SVL) writting 
support for HYPERChannel channel extender ... allowing local
3274 controlers to moved to offsite building. As a side-effect of moving real 
3274 off the channels ... being replaced with HYPERChannel boxes, significantly 
reducing channel busy for doing the same 3274 operations ... increased overall 
system thruput by 10-15%. ... misc. past posts mentioning various efforts ... 
some involving HYPERChannel http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/subnetwork.html#hsdt

later in terminal emulation in ibm/pc ... a 3277 terminal emulation card had 
much better upload/download thruput compared to 3278 terminal emulation card 
(because of design with the electronics back in the controller ... requiring 
significant increase coax protocol chatter ... cutting effective 
upload/download thruput). some old references about terminal emulation thruput
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2005r.html#17 Intel strikes back with a parallel 
x86 design http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2007r.html#10 IBM System/3 & 3277-1

4341 was "mid-range" done by endicott. some number of old emails related to 4341
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/lhwemail.html#4341

POK was surprised that 4341 was beating 3031. in the wake of failure of FS 
effort, there was mad rush to get products back into 370 product pipeline ... 
some part of that was 303x which was largely warmed over 370; 3031 was warmed 
over 370/158-3. clusters of 4341s had higher thruput, were lower cost and 
required significant reduced physical resources compared to 3033 (there is 
folklore about internal dirty tricks that cut in half the allocation of 
critical 4341 manufacturing
component)

4341 increased performance, reduced costs, reduced physical requirements ...  
and there was big explosion in the numbers sold. Many corporations were facing 
running out of physical space in datacenters ... and it was possible to place 
43xx machines out in dept. supply rooms and conference rooms. Large 
corporations had orders for several hundred at a time that went all around the 
corporation ... the leading edge of the distributed computing wave. internally, 
so many were going into dept. conference rooms, that conference rooms started 
to become scarce corporate resource.  the explosion in number of 43xx machines 
internally helped spike the number of internal network nodes:

I am ashamed to have to ask this at all. We currently have a z9BC. A high 
manager has found what he considers a great deal on a used z800 that he want to 
convert back when our lease expires. 

Anyway, does anybody have a pointer to some authoritive documentation which 
would relate a z9BC MSU to a z800 MSU? I.e. if we have a 4hr rolling average 
MSU of 40 on a z9BC, that would roughly translate to ??? MSUs on a z800. We use 
SCRT for billing, so if the MSUs go up for the equivalent work (as I believe 
they will), then this deal will be far less desirable.

I would say more, but I need to keep my job.

We will be upgrading our Storage array and at that time the dasd will be
carved out as MOD 9's.  Currently we are 99% Mod 3s.

Is there a way without taking an outage to move 3 MOD 3s onto one mod 9?

I was hoping that TDMF, or DFDSS might work but I think they need
control of the files.

Any suggestions?

Does a copy of PL/S from IBM exist anywhere in the public domain?
Or would there be somewhere on a z/OS mainframe system I could find a 
sample of the code?

This is what I found on Wikipedia:  

PL/S, short for Programming Language/Systems, is a "machine-oriented" 
programming language based on PL/I. It was developed by IBM in the late 
1960s as a replacement for assembly language on internal software
projects; 
it included support for inline assembly and explicit control over
register usage.

Early projects using PL/S were the batch utility, IEHMOVE, and the Time 
Sharing Option of MVT, TSO.


THANX in advance,
