Re: Early IPL problems
John, I have always found that the Wait States that I encounter are of my own doing. I have never done an SADUMP. The one occurrence that was problematic was after a POR and no LP would IPL. Had to make changes to SYS1.PARMLIB but had no system. We were saved by the Jan Jeager's OS/390 System Utilities. Building that capability into the HMC would be a great addition. Thanks, .Larry -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of John McDowell Sent: Monday, May 14, 2012 12:56 PM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Early IPL problems Thanks for all of the feedback thus far, both on and off the list, it has been useful. So far, there seems to be general agreement that the frequency of problems is low (at least in production LPARs), that some way of displaying what the Wait State Code (WSC) means would be useful and that recovery from these sort of problems is accomplished by using another running z/OS system. To help focus the feedback somewhat I would be interested to know: - What are the typical steps taken to identify/recover from a WSC ? For example, Step 1: Find the meaning of the WSC Step 2: SADUMP Step 3: Correct the source of the problem Step 4: Re-IPL Step 5: Open a PMR etc., etc. Steps 1 seems fairly certain, beyond that the remaining steps (both content and sequence) seem to be much less so. - Are the existing messages useful/sufficient for identifying the underlying cause and how to correct the WSC ? - Are there circumstances (e.g. console setup, etc.) that prevent the existing messages from being seen ? - Are additional/better/different messages needed to identify and/or correct the cause of the WSC ? - Is there any need to diagnose and/or correct problems without resorting to another running z/OS system ? - To what extent, if any, is it desirable to avoid the WSC by providing some means of error recovery ?

I am just trying to understand if it is possible to move all the users dataset catalogued under master catalogue to a user catalogue since the Number of datasets are in big number. Jake If the datasets are not migrated, then you can use DFDSS to dump/delete, create the alias, restore the files with CATALOG. If they are migrated, then recall them, DFDSS dump/delete, create the alias, restore with CATALOG option. If they are migrated and you cannot recall them, then keep the list of migrated files, and recover them with DFHSM after you correct the alias. I do not think you can do a repromergcat if the alias does not already exist. This should work. I have used this technique in the past.
