Re: migrating an in-house MF tool

Re: Migrating a in house MF tool
Hi, Sorry for not providing much information. it is not a version dependent one. I am trying to do a dump and restore of the entire tool dataset MFCOE.** to the V1.12. Concatenate the Required REXX to the SYSEXEC.

Regards, Jags Jags, In house tools need to be documented by your shop as to how things are hooked up. However, if you did a DFDSS dump, a DFDSS restore should work. I do not know of any problems between z/OS V1.6 Dump and a z/OS V1.12 Restore. Though I probably would have used TSO XMIT or an IEBCOPY Unload and then used the correct restore process under z/OS V1.12.

Re: Migrating a in house MF tool
If you know all the pieces that make up the tool and you have successfully identified them and successfully transported them to the new system, it's time to build the tool on the new system. If you have build instructions from the old system, those instructions may also work on the new system. If you do not have build instructions, you will have to reverse engineer the tool on the old system to create build instructions. Since this seems to be an internally-developed tool, only you or someone in your shop can do this. Have you already done any of this analysis? You really need to do some work up-front before posting a question. And when you do post a question you need to provide specific details, such as error messages, if something is not working as expected. - Don Imbriale On Sat, Aug 6, 2011 at 2:13 AM, jagadishan perumal jagadish...@gmail.comwrote: Hi, Sorry for not providing much information. it is not a version dependent one.

migrating an in-house MF tool
The problem is not 1) that you post too often or 2) that you do not do enough manual readinmg before you post. It is that you do not provide enough circumstantial detail to enable us to be really helpful. Try describing your problems in [much] greater circumstantial detail. We all know how to discard irrelevant detail, and your instinct for brevity makes it unlikely that you will be prolix.
