SERVICELINK @ IBMLink 2.5 hours still can't logon
Okay, Give me the 3270 version back! Three calls to IBM Registration, 2 calls to Service Link, and 2.5 hours later I am now waiting to talk to a Level 2 guy at IMBLink. Doesn't IBM understand that I have customers that expect problems to get resolved in a timely manner. Maybe they should let me put in PMR's directly from my customers to IBM, and let them worry about the problem.

D37 for PDSE in LNKLIST in SYSPLEX
Summary: We need to delete a file that has enqueue's on the DSN in multiple LPAR's on the same Z/900. Any help would be appreciated. In performing SMP/E processing we ran into a D37-04 on the CBC.SCCNCMP that resides on a SYSRES pack. The same DSN is used on four other LPAR'S on a z/900 running various levels of Z/OS. The CBC.SCCNCMP on the other LPAR'S are files unitque to that release of the Operating System. When we attempt to delete and define the file that needs more space, we get a "DATASET in use by 10 users" message. The other "users" are LLA and XCFAS. We assume this is because the dataset is named the same on the other LPAR'S. How can I build a new PDSE named "CBC.SCCNCMP" on a single LPAR without having to IPL?

Z/900 How to Test Daylight Savings Time Mods
We have applied the DST (TZ _TZ) APAR to z.os 1.4; 1.6 anv 1.7 running in three LPAR's on a single z/900. This z/900 is an application development Server. We have applied the JTUZ utility to USS for JAVA. We do not have a SYSPLEX Timer, and have an internal Coupling Facility. We would like to test the modifications to our system, and our applications prior to the Daylight Savinggs Time change. Anyone have any suggestions,on how to test the modifications without manually changing the clock on the SE, and performing a Power On Reset. Are there any products/utilities that would make this possible. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks for the time.

IBM DEBUG TOOL Install in Own SMP/E CSI or in IBM Z/OS BASE ELEMENT CSI
We are installing IBM DEBUG TOOL & ADVANCED FUNCTIONS on a SYSPLEX which has multiple LPAR'S running different levels of z/OS (1.4 1.6 and 1.7). The LPAR'S share DASD for non SYSRES packs. The documentation indicates that we can install the IBM DEBUG TOOL in it's own SMP/E CSI. However, a section of the documentation indicates that CEE.SCEELKED, CSSLIB, AND SEZATCP must be added to the statnd alone SMP/E CSI Zones in order to APPLY the IBM DEBUG TOOL to the Target Zone. As these CALLIBS are z/OS Release specific, does this mean that I will have to install the IBM DEBUG TOOL on each of the LPAR'S in my SYSPLEX. If you have any experience in doing this, or thoughts on the matter, I would appreciate the input.

Move VSAM DS w/ 8 Components or more
During SPACE migration we are using DFSHSM with a MIGRATE VOLUME(dbc66e MIGRATE(0)) CONVERT command. This moves all of the datasets except those VSAM datasets with over 8 components (AIX, PATH, etc). The manuals indicate that we have to move these datasets by DSN. We have attempted ADRSDSSU but it has the same limitations. Two questions. 1. Is there a way to get a list of VSAM data set names by CLUSTER name only. (Not had much luck with ISMF PANELS). 2. Is there a better utility to use to move the VSAM datasets with more than 8 components to the new device. (move from RAMMAC 3 to DS6000) . Any help would be appreciated.

z/os Master Catalog to new volume in SYSPLEX
We are migrating to new DASD (DS6000) and want to move a Master Catalog for a 1.7 z/OS system to a new pack prior to performing the migration. The z/os 1.7 Master Catalog is defined as a User Catatlog to the z/os 1.6 Master Catalog on another LPAR. We have read the Managing Catalog manuals and can not find a way to move the z/os 1.7 catalog without building an alternate. My question is, can we shutdown the z/os 1.7 LPAR and move the z/OS 1.7 Master Catalog as we would a usercat from the z/os 1.6 LPAR. If not, does anyone have any suggestions. Thanks.

Re: Scrolling NETSTAT display REXX script attached
Thanks to all who responded. It turns out there is a REXX script that
someone uses to allow scrollable display. I have tested it and it works.
Here is what I used.
/* SHAREWARE ?? t
/* REXX to trap output from a given command and, instead of letting it
/* REXX to trap output from a given command and, instead of letting it
display once and be lost, copies it to a temporary dataset for browsing.
This is useful in two cases: 1) When the output is rather long and it'd
be nice to be able to browse up and down through it (for example as with
HELP XMIT or LISTCAT HISTORY), and 2) when you want to be able to search
through it for a particular string, or otherwise manipulate it with VIEW
commands.
To make the call, just insert DISP between TSO and the command; for
example, instead of saying TSO HELP XMIT, say TSO DISP HELP XMIT. */
arg cmd
/* Turn any single quotes into triples */
pq=pos("'",cmd); do while pq>0
cmd=insert("''",cmd,pq)
pq=pos("'",cmd,pq+3); end
rc=outtrap('op.'); interpret "'"cmd"'"; rc=outtrap('OFF')
if op.0=0 then say,
"No output, or TRAP can't handle this type of output"
