Any MXI 4.3 Issues on z/OS 1.9/10/11 ?

2009-10-18 Thread Michael Cleary
Greetings,

I wanted to see if anyone has experienced or knows of any issues at all with 
running the freeware MXI 4.3 under z/OS 1.9, z/OS 1.10 or z/OS 1.11?   

This would include, but not be limited to the following functionality:

- MXI standard ISPF panels
- MXI server and subsystem
- MXI Collecting LPAR Information (MXIU83 exit for RMF or MXIU84 exit for 
CMF)
- MXI Collecting Log Stream Information (MXIU83 exit)
- MXI Collecting LLA module fetch statistics (CSVLLIX1/MXILLIX1 exit)
- MXI TCP/IP Server
- MXI Exception Rules Table
- MXI Security

Cheers…

Michael Cleary

The only problem that I am aware of is that starting with z/OS 1.9, MXI does
not process PCs correctly due to IBM expanding the size of the PC number and
MXI not being updated to cope.

Here are a few things for starters :

(o) No knowledge of 64-bit storage for address space and system level metrics 
(o) No knowledge of 64-bit storage for memory browsing 
(o) No knowledge of 5-digit UCBs 
(o) No knowledge of PAV 
(o) No knowledge of z/IIP and z/AAP 
(o) Some DASD and SMS displays can be truncated on large shops and even fail 
with region size related abends 
(o) DB2 V9 is not supported 
(o) Linkage index display produces no results 
(o) Incomplete results for HSM request queue 
(o) No knowledge of EAV DASD (very high capacity DASD)
(o) DASD command produces incorrect (and quite ugly) capacity/usage results 
for EAV DASD
(o) SMF Type 70 record processing does not handle fragmented records when site 
has large number of LPARs and/or LCPUs

Other than that, most things work fine ...  ;-)
Of course another option is to toss Rocket some money so that Rob can
continue to support himself and his family.
