Re: IFASMFDP Abends
Tom, We just encountered a variation of your problem. In our case, a tape problem caused a return code 8, and no abend. The inputdataset had disp(old,delete,keep). The input thus was deleted. We have changed our jobstream to do condition code checking in a follow-on job step, and delete the input only if the dump step has beeen successful.

It has always been my understand that this is just the way it is. In my daily SMF rollup I split the SMF data into multiple tape files depending on the SMF ID. One of those files had grown past the number of tape volumes allowed. Therefore the job failed with an S837-08. I fixed that by bumping up the number of volumes in the JCL. The problem is that IFASMFDP intercepts the abend and completes with a condition code of 8 instead of a true abend. Because of this the output datasets were not deleted even though DISP=(,CATLG,DELETE) was coded on the JCL. Does anyone know of a way to make IFASMFDP complete with a true abend when it occurs?

Re: Listing HIPERS
Joseph, That is the ENHANCED HOLDDATA. You don't need to read any of it, just receive it into your SMPE GLOBAL CSI. As you can see in the header, it is as current as the previous day. Make sure there are no gaps in holddata received. In your example, the file covers only the last month. You can retrieve holddata that covers the last two years. Your report will show you what applies to YOUR system at its current state. There is no need to develop complex queries and try to understand which piece of maintenance you found applies to you. Everything in the report applies to your system, and it is current. Ed, if you really have nothing better to do than look every half hour for additional HIPER maintenance, you really need a life :) Yesterday is current enough for me.

Re: Listing HIPERS
Joseph, The 90 days worth of holddata might be correct in this case, just because your system, built in July, is less than 90 days old. There won't be a gap in the holddata. Before you run any report, retrieve current holddata into your system that covers back to the last date you retrieved holddata. Don't bother trying to read the data itself. If you run a report today, and the holddata is current, it will show what PTF errors and HIPER errors your system is known to be exposed to today. If your production date is October, then, sometime before you go to production, get the holddata current and run another report. You will undoubtedly see additional entries. Maintenance applied in the interim will possibly eliminate entries seen in the first report. Take care of the entries that look serious enough to your shop. Each report will show you what errors you are known to be exposed to and will be as current as the holddata. There are lots of other ways to receive notification of potential problems. One is this forum, another is the IBMLink Automatic Software Alert Process, another is a subscription to IBM flashes. They will give warning between your refresh of holddata. Those entries should show up in the holddata as well, and very quickly after they become known by the IBM support teams. You can also, as you asked in the first place, do your own searching and wading through results. I just don't do much of that, so I don't know how to do efficient queries that won't also potentially miss errors I would have wanted to see, and the holddata is so darned easy.

Re: Listing HIPERS
Ed, Joseph's question was about how to monitor HIPER fixes, not about how and when to apply maintenance. I try to always go through a current round of RSU maintenance before a product goes into production to keep it as current as possible just as Tom described. As Debbie pointed out, PSP buckets are important too, expecially because of issues other than maintenance. OOPS! Gotta run outside now and retrieve Junior before the lawn service comes to mow!

John If that is what is good for you fine, personally I would expect no less from anyone. I would also expect to monitor all new hipers for at least a week (or two) after maintenance goes on. I do have a life but maintenance is part of it and if you had a baby would you leave it out on the front lawn because you have checked the neighborhood for wolves (and found none) ? When my baby goes into production I am in proactive mode not reactive. I don't wait for the wolf to come to my street corner. i also monitor logrec and system dumps all the time. That is how you find things that are in the process of breaking. Saying that, not all hipers are really important. If there is one out there for a component we don't use I don't rush to put it on, the next round of IPL's is fine. But if a hiper PTF came out got lets say VSAM it would go on as fast as I can schedule it (or sooner if it breaks something). This was a lesson learned by me after 5 years of MVS sysproging I have constantly refined it over the years. Yes MVS has gotten better but lessons learned, it is almost always better to be safe than have something broke at 2AM.

Re: SOC4 in DFSORT with DB2
George, We got an 0C4, and also a U0083 symptom using DFSORT to do reorgs on a tablespace with a lot of indexes. The DBA had set up sortnum to 160 so they would never have to compute sort work space. When they reduced it to 80, things worked fine. The tablespace with the problem was small, but has lots of indexes. Large tablespaces with fewer indexes could be reorged with larger sortnum. There are two new APARs we caused. Look at OA21854 and darn, I can't get to IBMLink to find the other, if it was even assigned yet. In our case, the large number of sortnum caused a condition that exceeded the allowable size of the TIOT. The allocation APAR is to give the user a better symptom than abend0C4 to tell the user what is wrong. The 0C4 is because the slot allocation was trying to free up was for VIO, which does not have a control block they were looking for. The DB2 APAR is to address an issue of why they were asking for an enormous number of sortwork datasets. I'll post that whenever I can find it.

NO DEVICE POOLS EXIST TO FULFILL REQUEST FOR TDSI SPECIFICATION
IGD306I UNEXPECTED ERROR DURING CBRXLCS PROCESSING

THE MODULE THAT DETECTED THE ERROR IS IGDIDMUS
SMS MODULE TRACE BACK - IDMUS IDMSU IDM00 SSIRT
SYMPTOM RECORD CREATED, PROBLEM ID IS IGD00094
.
With the IGD306I, you might also see:
NO DEVICE POOLS EXIST TO FULFILL REQUEST FOR SPECIFIED RECORDING
TECHNOLOGY. ( RETURN CODE 12 REASON CODE 66 rc12 rsn66)
or
NO DEVICE POOLS TO FULFILL REQUEST FOR SPECIFIED MEDIA TYPE
( RETURN CODE 12 REASON CODE 67 rc12 rsn67)
.
Things to check:
1) For SCRATCH allocations it is usually a problem with Data
Class. Verify that the correct Data Class is being selected
and that the ISMF definition is correct.
.
Check your job output to determine which Data Class was
assigned. If it is not the correct one, check your ACS
routine logic. If it is the one you expect, display the Data
Class definition in ISMF and look at the recording technology
and/or media type specified.
Verify that the recording technology and/or media type
specified is appropriate for the devices in your library(s).
For instance, if you have upgraded all of your devices to a
new model (3590 Model B - 3590 Model E) and your data class
still referenced the old recording technology, this could be
one cause for the failure.
Assigning a Data Class is optional, and if one is specified,
assigning a media type and recording technology is used to
direct your allocations to a particular device type within a
library (or set of libraries). This is especially important
if your library contains multiple device types.
2) For PRIVATE allocations, display the volume with:
D SMS,VOL(volser) to determine which library the volume
resides in, then display the library with:
D SMS,LIB(libname),DETAIL and the drives with:
LI DD,libname
Make sure the ATL and drives are ONLINE and OPERATIONAL and
that the DEVICE TYPE is correct
.
If you have just upgraded your drives to a new recording
technology, (this is especially important if all of the
drives in your library have been upgraded) you may need to
set the Special Attribute ( READCOMPAT ) indicator in your
volume records to be able to read your old PRIVATE tapes on
your new drives.
RMM users can build a CLIST as follows:
RMM SV VOLUME(*) OWNER(*) LIMIT(*) STATUS(MASTER) -
LOCATION(libname) -
CLIST('RMM CHANGEVOLUME ' , ' SPECIALATTRIBUTES(RDCOMPAT) ')
.
To update only the TCDB, you can use IDCAMS:
Example:
//ALTERVOL JOB ...
//STEP1EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=A
//SYSINDD *
ALTER VAL0001 -
VOLUMEENTRY -
SATTR(RDCOMPAT)
/*
or ALTER 'Vvolser' VOLENT SATTR(RDCOMPAT) TSO command.
For DFSMS releases below R1F0, verify that you have the fix
for APAR OW41005 as it corrects a problem with this ALTER
command.
.
See section below on Other 3590B to E migration issues:
.
3) For new installs or upgrade of existing drives:
- Verify device type is correct in displays resulting from
the following commands:
.
LI DD,name:

Re: zOS 1.8 and One Byte Console ID
That happened to us with a CICS V2.2 system. It was using the old master console ID. The CICS system programmer changed to a legitimate console and it worked.

Re: ILR006E COMMON PAGE DATA SET FULL, OVERFLOWING TO PLPA DATA SET
Allan, Rob Scott's answer is probably what is happening to you. As an example, we just went through the same sort of problem. A vendor monitor was issuing getmain for some function, and never issuing freemain when finished with the storage. It built up over time to the point that the monitor had used a very large percentage of the page space. The vendor had a fix for a known problem, and, after applying the fix, we have not seen the storage leak again.
