It appears that you want the driving system (client) to be z/OS
and the passive system (server) to be Windows.  What sort of
server do you have available on Windows?  (I used to be able to
do this sort of thing with a Cygin server on Windows.  The
ability vanished a few weeks ago.  I suspect the Powers That
Be spread a security blanket and my desktop Windows system
can no longer open any ports.  I'm not asking any questions
that might draw attention.)

How prevalent is CMS/TSO Pipelines in z/OS?

Does it have an SFTP stage

Does it have a z/OS UNIX command stage?  (And has it a CMS
OpenExtensions command stage?)

Does it have drivers for POSIX pipes?

Does it have a separate Users Guide for TSO or does a
single manual serve for both CMS and TSO?

I've sometimes used POSIX pipes for IEBGENER input/output.

Is the OP seeking a production quality utility or a personal tool?

Thanks for reply.

So, we have requirement of sending and receiving files of mainframe and
windows as well as Unix systems.
So, we need to setup JCL in z/os system in such a way the one JCL will be
used for sending data can be sequential or PDs datasets to Windows
mainframe or receiving file from Windows system using sftp rather then ftp.

SFTP won't deal with PS and PDS data sets.  For that, you'd need
Dovetailed's
Co:Z, free to use, $ for support.

At times, I have kludged a pipeline of:

cp "//'PDS.NAME(MEMBER)'" /dev/fd/1 |
ssh user@remote-host "
cat >target-file"
(Authentication via ~/.sh)

What sorts of systems have you
o At the controlling end?
o At the passive end?

JCL?  Look into BPXWUNIX.  (Can BPXWUNIX be executed from a JCL step
or is a Rexx layer needed?)

But must it be JCL?  Why not a UNIX shell script or Rexx, putting you a
couple interface layers closer to what you need to do.

Hello David, yes I am aware that sftp process only Unix files but I heard
that we have other of transferring traditional mvs dataset like we can
first transfer mvs dataset to omvs and then do sftp.

But I never did this before, so I am requesting to help on sample JCL.

sftp only supports UNIX files so you're out of luck if you want to

What are you trying to solve? Rather consider Service Units.

You got good replies about calculation methods and cautions about what MIPS is 
really.

Just one fact to remember: Volume has NOTHING to do with MIPS, unless some 
software compression and/or record manipulation is used.

By whom? SMF dump? Report generation? Resource usage billing?

The same goes for SYSLOG and SYSOUT.

Who or what is generating it? JES2? Programs in Jobs themselves or some Abend 
routine spewing out dumps?

As Lizette said, you can use IEBGENER to copy SYSLOG on whatever CEC. Or you 
can use ICEGENER or other utility to do that. But then there is also overhead 
to take in account like startup overhead, preparing for possible abends, 
paging, etc.

Lots of knobs from end user to listserv profile. .txt is a common DOS  
extension for character data. I think attachments are scanned for graphics as  
are normal messages and rejected. The max size of a message is 500 lines  
including attachments(subject to change). Easier to post a link to a video than 
 gumming up the works with attachments.

My €0.02:
This is Rube Goldberg. There are ways to achieve the same goal but with 
slightly changed *not important* requirements.


IMHO the simplest way to keep and share files on mainframe is to use 
DFS/SMB - just map Windows network drive. Actually you can use WIndows, 
Mac, LInux. You can share same filesystem using NFS.

There is GUI for that, although not web based.
There is no encryption on LAN, but who connects to mainframe from 
insecure network? Same network infrastructure is being used for other 
activities and probably it's not "end to end" encrypted.

Oh, there are methods to encrypt the connection.

Of course there is no problem with writing a clone of dropbox, ...except 
time and money, but not everyone needs Rube Goldberg machine to do 
simple things.

Most MIPS charts are expensive spreadsheets that simply duplicate what is
already available from the IBM LSPR.

Unless the provider of such a chart is running their own benchmarks, they
are largely nonsense.

You may want to look more at Service Units or normalized reporting.

I can run an IEBGENER to Print a SYSLOG file with 10,000,000 lines.  My MIPS
or SUs may vary across each iterating.  If I change the CEC, it may change
again, if I have more CPs or less, it may change again.  It can be difficult
to get a repeatable report of MIPs.

The MIPS rating is based on processor type and Operating System. Performance
guru Cheryl Watson offers several charts at

I'm not sure why you care about CPU MIPS rating because chargeback is
usually by CPU time or Service Units used. Your job will run in less time on
a faster CPU but the chargeback per second is usually more. 

Likewise, fewer Service Units are used on a faster CPU.
So, knowing what you are trying to report would be helpful.

Re: MIPS Calculation formula

2016-11-30 Thread Jesse 1 Robinson

The insatiable hunger for MIPS comes mainly from the non-mainframe world. IBM 
uses MSU ratings for mainframes of all sizes, but folks who want to compare 
other hardware can only speak MIPS. So there are various charts available from 
various sources to make sense of apples and oranges. You get to pick your 
source and run with it. ;-(

Well, I wrote before I fact-checked.  Lobo has spawned Lobo Evolution,
updated last week.  Firefox tells me I shouldn't trust SourceForge, so I 
circumvented with curl.

On Windows it still sucks.

On z/OS:

Exception in thread "main" java.awt.HeadlessException: 
No X11 DISPLAY variable was set, but this program performed an operation which 
requires it.
at 
java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment.checkHeadless(GraphicsEnvironment.java:217)

I used to have X11, but that was before ssh tunneling.  I can't make a business 
case for
fixing it here.  Does it work generally?

Wild idea:  Could an enhanced x3270 set up an X11 tunnel at connection?  Could 
DISPLAY
be set outside OMVS, even in a tagged address space?  Then X11 apps could be 
started
from a 3270 session.

Re: Automatic Binary Optimizer and application Software management product integration

2016-11-30 Thread Jesse 1 Robinson

As I discussed previously on IBM-Main, I've played a bit with ABO. Some 
observations:

-- The more CPU-intensive the program, the more it will benefit from ABO. Heavy 
I/O hitters not so much. 

-- There is virtually no overhead in an ABO-optimized program. I've some folks 
use the term 'dynamic' for an ABO environment. ABO 'digests' an existing load 
module and saves the new version in a separate location. At execution time, 
there is no additional run-time setup or preparation. 

-- I've not heard of any incorporation of ABO into the standard source/load 
management products like Endevor or Panvalet or ISPW. 

-- Probably the biggest advantage of ABO is that the run-time library may be PO 
or library depending on the code. COBOL V5/V6 requires library (PDSE), which 
may impact a shop's migration and sharing practices.

Sorry, my mind wandered when responding.

A quick search on the internet gives a lot of info

This thread maybe helpful

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/bit.listserv.ibm-main/fh1g4n7f5_Q

From within this thread

ABO is going to make a V3/V4 program faster, in general, because it has access 
to ARCH(up-to-10), in your case, instructions which the V3/V4 compiler does not 
have access to. 

It is also able to use some optimization techniques not available with OPT in 
V3/V4 (learning for the optimizations in V5, which in turn learned from 
optimizations for Java). 

A program may be "flat" (before = after) but that would seem fairly unlikely, 
and any such program would likely not be a CPU heavy-hitter. 

Caveat. It would be possible that the ABO has initial "overhead" larger than 
the original program that affects CALLed programs. I don't know. Not seen it. 
Just sayin'.


https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/blogs/invisiblethread/entry/Give_your_COBOL_applications_A_BOost_with_the_flip_of_a_switch?lang=en


As far as I know you run your program through ABO process which can reduce the 
need to recompile with V5 and above Cobol and you can get some benefits.

Re: concat

Or you can create a standalone ALLOC you do once in ISPF.  Use LIBDEFs and 
ALTLIB in it.  Then so long as you remain in that session, you have what you 
need.

When you logoff the ALTLIB and LIBDEFs go away.

Note:  Some products do not use the ALTLIB.  You need to validate what you are 
doing can handle ALTLIB and LIBDEFs.

Enter ISPF, on the command line execute your Allocation REXX/CLIST for your 
LIBDEFs or ALTLIBs, work in that ISPF Session (if you split screen, execute 
your allocation REXX/CLIST again).  Should be good for the life or your ISPF 
environment.  Con:  If you execute another application that does its owns 
LIBDEFs/ALTLIBs may cause interesting issues.

One shop I was in had an ISPF Logon Clist.  It looked for a specific dataset 
name with a member called ALLOCME - when it was found that was executed and 
re-ordered your TSO logon Datasets putting the user files first.  Then it took 
you into ISPF

Keep in mind that MIPS stands for "Meaningless Indicator of Processor

ALTLIB can be used within an application to change the search list for 
Rexx/CLIST but only for the duration of that application. In order to change 
the library concatenation for the life of a session, a (re)concatenation of 
(SYSPROC/SYSEXEC) must be performed at TSO Ready before entering PDF. That new 
concatenation remains effective until logoff or until another reconcatenation 
occurs at TSO Ready.

As far as I know you run your program through ABO process which can reduce the 
need to recompile with V5 and above Cobol and you can get some benefits.

Do you have SAS/MXG or SAS/MICS or SAS?

Have you tried searching www.ibm.com for this information? Or any performance

MIPS Calculation formula

2016-11-30 Thread Carlos Cordero

Hi all,


Is there some formula to calculate a MIPS usage from the next kind of 
data-source and volumes estimation:


Data Type: SMF

Records procesed: X million

Data Volume:  Y GB

Total CP CPU utilization: Z seconds

Approx zIIP utilization: 1344 seconds

Avg CPU per record:  .0xy seconds


Data Type: SYSLOG

Records processed X million

Data volume: Y GB

Total CP CPU utilization: z seconds

Avg CPU per record: .xy seconds


Data Type: SYSOUT

Records processed X million

Data volume: Y GB

Total CP CPU utilization: z seconds

Avg CPU per record: .xy seconds



Thanks in advance.

Re: Automatic Binary Optimizer and application Software management product integration

Is this the product you are referring to?  If not, could you provide more 
details?

IBM Automatic Binary Optimizer (ABO) for z/OS

If it is, you should search the IBMMAIN Archives for all of the discussions of 
ABO.

It allows PRE Cobol V5 MODULES a way to run with some of the optimizations 
provided by V5 Cobol and above.

Not sure what you would need a tool to integrate it with CA-Endevor.

Re: How to Identify modules as C/C++ or Cobol, or ASM from dump (SYSMDUMP)

This matches my current understanding, strengthened from reading the links you 
provided yesterday. LE treats the case right in that it resumes the Cobol code 
from the ESPIE routine. The Cobol code would not know the 000A exception has 
happened, it will find out if an overflow occurred by testing the condition 
code, it this is needed for the Cobol statement being executed.


The drawback of running Cobol code with the decimal overflow mask bit on is 
shown by Tom Ross ins his 2014 Share presentation "Coding in COBOL for optimum 
performance". The code can use significantly more CPU time due to the 000A 
handling in the ESPIE routine, which would not be triggered when the mask is 
off. But the code runs no different from a logical perspective.




>So I think it reasonable to postulate that the problem only arises with 
>user-written C/C++ code, and that the "first" C/C++ user-written code gets the

Almost, at least as long a not other "low level helper package" (Smart/Restart) 
also installs error handling code. This code receives the 000A as well, and 
thinks the applpication failed. It does a roll-back, which causes certain 
things to be "closed" (data sets under its control, DB2 cursors, etc.). This is 
the real problem which then is seen as a weird S0C1 or S0C4 later when the 
Cobol code tries to work with closed "items" it does assume to be "open".


I'll have to did deeper into Smart/Restart and what it does and does not do. 
I'm convinced the longterm, stable solution lies there.



>Perhaps an initial deliberate CALL to a C/C++ program which uses CEE3SPM to

I'll give this a tought, but only as an interim solution. The next case 
modifying the program mask will surely wait around the corner :-)


Thanks everybody for the very good and informative discussion so far. It helped 
me a lot to get a deeper understanding.

>There is an assumption in the OP that the program itself "did it". Maybe

I'm relatively new to the company and am collecting information bit by bit 
about this Cobol and "decimal overflow mask" problem. It seems this is know to 
the company since quite some years, but no-one is left knowing the details 
in-depth.


What I've been given is a two pager describing the problem, and advising 
developers to find where they'd called C code directly (instead of an interface 
routine resetting the mask).


>From that I concluded that the case at hand is the result from such a case.

So, yes, Peter, you're absoultely right, it may have been cause by own code or 
not. From Bill's post mentioning that "Cobol V5 always uses C", I conclude that 
this must be the case here.


I've been reading a lot today to learn more about LE and the mask bits. I now 
understand that you could never rely on the setting of the bits in a mixed 
language environment. It was just the case so far that we (our middleware 
developers) could control this because our Cobol code was calling our Cobol or 
C code only. A glue glue module solved the issue. The same has been done for 
XML processing, I understand now from discussing with our middleware people 
today.


It probably was not a good solution as we can see now.




Our programs are run with CEEOPTS TRAP(ON). In the initial post have 
erroneously spoken about an "S0CA", where I should have said "000A program 
exception. Later I wrote 000A exception.
By that I mean to say that the program did *not* suffern from an S0CA abend, 
because the "environment" (Smart/Restart and LE) trapped the 000A and resumed.
Apologies for any confusion this may have caused.


The proper solution instead of creating glue routines woud have been to solve 
the issue with Smart/Restart. We probably now have to do this now.


More investigation is due tomorrow.

Automatic Binary Optimizer and application Software management product integration

2016-11-30 Thread Holst, Jeffrey A

A few months ago, I recall seeing something during a web search about 
integrating ABO with an application software management product like 
CA-Endevor. For some reason, I think it was from Marist college.

I thought I had downloaded it, but either I did not or I deleted it. There may 
be a new interest in ABO, and I would like to be ready with this if I could 
find it again. I did a search this afternoon and did not see anything. Has 
anyone done anything like this or know where I can find such a document?

Re: concat

Mark:

I have a REXX procedure I wrote many years ago that does the job. I can 
say that it works on z/OS 2.1, but don't have access to a 2.2 system, 
although I can see no reason why it won't run there.


I don't believe that we can attach files on this listserv, so here it is 
in source form:


/* rexx */
 /* 
Syntax:
 %ralok dsname filename 

This REXX procedure can be used to alter the existing allocation
for the file identified in the second operand. The data set
whose name is supplied as the first operand will be inserted
into the existing allocation (or replace it), depending on the
value of the third operand (as follows):

 top   - inserts the data set named as the first data
 set in the concatenation for the file

 bottom- inserts the data set named as the last data
 set in the concatenation for the file

 replace   - inserts the data set named as the only data set
 allocated to the file

arguments:
 dsname- the name of the data set to be used in altering
 the concatenation for the file.

 filename  - the ddname of the file whose concatenation is
 to be altered.

  - explained above - determines
 where in the concatenation order the data set
 is placed. The default is top.
 */
 /*

 */

If it were me, I’d start by Googling open source web file sharing or open 
source private cloud.  I think the issue is starting with “Z” based xyz.   Most 
/ many technologies can / will run on z if they’re java / c / plain ol’ web 
type stuff - you might very well be able to port or even just install off the 
shelf one of the 10s of options in that space.

Obviously you might’nt be able to do direct xfers to MVS Datasets, for instance 
- but with all the other help / ingenuity here I’m sure you can work / code 
around that to use UNIX as the base for pickup/dropoff.

Hmmm.  I found a WWW client in Java called Lobo.  I tried it on a desktop
where it sucked so badly there was no point in trying it on z/OS.  No

Re: AW: Re: How to Identify modules as C/C++ or Cobol, or ASM from dump (SYSMDUMP)

2016-11-30 Thread Bill Woodger

Thinking a bit more, even though there may be parts, bits and pieces of C/C++ 
code to do with the COBOL program (and supporting routines) anything in the 
COBOL program is of course "COBOL" and any "COBOL routines" I'd imagine would 
also be treated as "COBOL" by LE. 

So I think it reasonable to postulate that the problem only arises with 
user-written C/C++ code, and that the "first" C/C++ user-written code gets the 
mask set, as described. With LE TRAP(ON) the issue just may not be apparent.

Perhaps an initial deliberate CALL to a C/C++ program which uses CEE3SPM to 
turn off that in the mask? LE fires it up as a "new language", sets the mask 
bit, transfers control to the C/C++ program, which then immediately turns it 
off and simply returns to the COBOL caller. As each new C/C++ program is 
CALLed, the mask bit is off, and remains unchanged.

I think that should work, whatever Smart/Restart is doing.

Test with the simple COBOL program (yet to be provided...)  doing the CALL and 
not doing the CALL, with TRAP(ON) and TRAP(OFF), both "inside" and "outside" 
Smart/Restart. Ah. Not so easy to replicate the actual issue you have with 
Smart/Restart and the DB and the 0008. So just do it "outside", and if it 
behaves as expected (S0CA without the CALL and with TRAP(OFF), no S0CA 
otherwise) then try it in the actual system.

Some possibilities for remote and secure file/dataset transfer:

z/OS OpenSSH SFTP.   Co:Z SFTP enhancements allow support for z/OS data

Interesting questions. I don't have access to V5+, so can't experiment. I would 
expect that "COBOL functionality" that happens to be in C/C++ would be aware of 
the issue for COBOL and would turn off that bit... but is that so?

I'll try to post a simple COBOL program to carry out an experient later. I'll 
have to second-guess the new optimizer, because it is much more clever than up

There is no direct equivalent of this on a pre-V5 compile listing, and the 
there's "evidence" there. When I'm home I'll try to futher locate something 
mentioning this from someone at IBM. Search-engineing for languages whose name 
consist of only one alphabetic character is... less than pleasant.

Have you looked at the setting for LE's TRAP? If it is ON, LE will deal with 
the 0008 transparently to the COBOL programs and they will not give a S0CA. At 
least TRAP(OFF) is the only way I know of (in interaction with the mask being 
on) to get a S0CA from COBOL. There may be some unintended interaction with the 
Smart/Restart, but knowing if the LE TRAP is ON or OFF is worthwhile.

Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: z/OS Web Based Dropbox ?

Your Welcome, it would be FTP or SFTP behind the scenes, if the protocol is not 
allowed because of a site restriction I think Http can still provide the 
ability via POST  / GET ?
Good luck

I have not done this, but you might try BPXWDYN 
http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSLTBW_2.1.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r1.bpxb600/bpx1rx76.htm

Something like:

ALLOC FILE(SYSPRC1) DSN(dsn1,dsn2) SHR REUSE CALL BPXWDYN 'CONCAT 
DDLIST(SYSPROC,SYSPRC1) PERMC DIAG(DIAG) MSG(MSG)'

BPXWDYN can be use in a CLIST or REXX or other language (it is CALLable from 
COBOL, PL/I, HLASM, etc).

I'd expect fewer target clients to be unfamiliar with/lack HTTPS than to lack 
(S)FTP.

Isn't FileZilla just (S)FTP?

Does Apache support secure uploads/downloads?

Issue the command TSO ISRDDN;SAVE and it will give you the current

concat

2016-11-30 Thread Steely.Mark

Would anyone be able to provide a way to concatenate a library to the SYSPROC 
allocation. 

I have tried the concat program from the CBT tape file 134 that abend with a 
S0c4.
I have tried a rexx exec called ALLOCREX. This sort of works ( it adds my ds to 
SYSPROC) but does not keep the same setup of SYSPROC before the addition. 
I have tried clist SPROC from IBM but for some reason it is not working. 



Does anyone have something they can share for z/os V2.2. 

Thanks

Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: z/OS Web Based Dropbox ?

Well, we use a ZFS filesystem mounted at /usr/local/ftp for a landing 
zone for secure ftp, a cron job does the cleanup daily and weekly 
As others have mentioned FTP would be an easy protocol to use.. even SFTP

Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: z/OS Web Based Dropbox ?

We have installed Micro Focus Reflections that comes with FTP and can also do 
IND$FILE.

Not sure what 3270 emulator you are using but it may have a process you can 
use. 

Attachmate, Vista TN3270  etc

Another option might be to look at the ISPF Workstation process.  It might 
usable depending on what you are doing.

Or can you mount files on the Mainframe that the user needs rather than FTP'ing 
files?

Re: How to Identify modules as C/C++ or Cobol, or ASM from dump (SYSMDUMP)

2016-11-30 Thread Denis

Hi,
 
I once had a PMR open, where COBOL called a COBOL DLL and the program mask 
changed. Which was annoying for the assembler that later was called and 
depended on the exception bits in the PSW.
 
The outcome was:
1. Language Environment neithersaves nor restores the program mask setting 
across calls to Language Environment servicesor calls within the Language 
Environment environment.
http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSLTBW_2.1.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r1.ceev100/pgmask.htm
2. The call from NODLL Cobol to the DLL COBOL was treated as new language 
(causing IGZCFCC calling CEEBADDM service to add a new member).
The maskable program exceptions are enabled for all member languagesrepresented 
in the root or main load module during Language Environment initialization.Each 
member language informs Language Environment of itsprogram mask requirements, 
and Language Environment ORs allof the requirements together and sets the 
program mask during initialization.During termination, the program mask is 
reset by Language Environment to itsvalue upon entry to Language Environment 
initialization.
3. While the enclave is running, the program mask is influenced bythe callable 
service, CEE3SPM, and by members' requirements that arenewly-added as a result 
of a dynamic call or fetch; this is handledby the CWI service CEE3ADDM.
4. If a program expects to work with a specific program mask, it needs to set 
it to the values it requires and reset it back, because of 1.

This basically means, in an unlucky mix or with new compilers/languages, the 
program mask might be different than it was before.
 
Hope that helps.
Denis.

Bill,Thanks a zillion for this information and the pointers in there.


While it does not represent a solution to my question, it does give me most 
valuable to the problem at hand. I'll have to discuss this with the people 
responsible for the Cobol V5 migtation here.

I'm kind of alerted by the statement "Cobol V5 always uses C". That means the 
decimal overflow mask will always be set after the first (internal) call to C 
code?

Can you be more specific on it means that "Cobol V5 always uses C"?

The 000A exception causes us problems, I understand so far, in context of 
programs running under control of Smart/Restart. Smart/Restart installs its own 
error handlers, which are obviously not supposed (or prepared) to handle an 
000A exception in Cobol context. It has something to do with S/R rolling back 
the DB changes and LE then ignoring the error giving contol back to the Cobol 
code. Later, a next DB call will fail with, mostly, a 0004 exception often in 
DSNHLI, because cursors are no longer open.

(Note that this is only vague information at this time. I'll have to understand 
what really happens. I have just gotten involved in this.)

Are you running LE with TRAP(OFF)? That's the only way I know, yet, of getting 
the S0CA from a COBOL program. See the discussion here: 
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/forums/html/topic?id=a639cb05-5604-42ab-95da-2a77dfccadbf=25.
 There was an RFE raised, which is currently an "Uncommitted Candidate", 
meaning it is a possible thing for the future, for a compiler option to provide 
the S0CA, during development, for instance.

However, would that, even if available, help you find the errant C/C++ 
program(s)? If the first C/C++ program set the bit and only the 300th COBOL 
program actually had an overflow?

Are you, ideally, looking for a list of the C/C++ programs which have already 
been "used" in the run-unit so that you can manually inspect them for the 
setting? That, as you are probably aware, won't give you anything for C/C++ 
program which just haven't been loaded yet, but will be.

How are the C/C++ programs setting the program mask? Do they use CEE3SPM, or 
some other method? If CEE3SPM, it shouldn't be too difficult to identify 
modules using that, although if you have 30,000 C/C++, 200 used (potentially) 
in your run-unit, and only four actually do the nasty of out 1,500 doing it in 
total...

There is an LE User Exit, CEEBINT, but since that is executed at the start of a 
program, even trying to check there won't quickly lead to the C/C++ program(s). 
Prog Z is CALLed by a chain of 25 other COBOL programs (try to guess what they 
are each named), Z CALLs a C/C++ program, which sets the mask, but no ill 
effect on Z (immediately, at least) and then a few GOBACKs and it arrives at 
Prog E, which then CALLs E1 which starts another huge chain, and eventually 
E1431A gets a S0CA. No help at all.

Re: How to Identify modules as C/C++ or Cobol, or ASM from dump (SYSMDUMP)

2016-11-30 Thread Peter Relson

>Can PER trap on a mask setting?

No. I suppose you could trap on (or trace) "all branches" or "all 
instructions" and then have the SLIP trap examine the 
time-of-PER-interrupt PSW to look at the program mask, but that would 
degrade things so much that you might never get there. 

There is an assumption in the OP that the program itself "did it". Maybe 
it did. But maybe it did not do it directly.
The expectation is that the (E)SPIE service manages the PSW program mask. 
But it is true that any program can change the program mask to whatever it 
chooses.
If LE has asked for (E)SPIE management of program interrupt 10, then you'd 
expect the program mask bit for decimal overflow to be on.
The (E)SPIE protocol is to save the returned token from "set" and use that 
on "reset" to reset things to the previous environment.
I use the term "environment" loosely. If an application is "playing" with 
the program mask while (E)SPIE is managing it, all bets are off.

I do not know what drives LE to specify what options when it uses (E)SPIE.

FWIW, because of the program mask, almost all system code must use logical 
arithmetic rather than decimal arithmetic when managing a field that could 
"wrap" (AKA overflow), in case it happens to be running with a non-0 
program mask.

And Dropbox - like Evernote, OneNote, iCloud - has user-friendly user

Yes, we could build our own based on FTP. It wouldn't be pretty and might 
not have many of the attributes of these ecosystems. For instance 
"scanning to FTP on z/OS with OCR" as a use case would take some assembly.

E1431A gets a S0CA. No help at all.

Even if there is a handy "table" of modules with their entry-points, you'll
still miss those that have not yet been CALLed.

Because the mask can be set and, if coded like that, it sticks, and COBOL
"ignores" it, unless you use TRAP(OFF), yet COBOL (actually LE) consumes time
ignoring it when it occurs, any C/C++ which is used by COBOL just has to "set
it back" (can be PUSH, SET, POP for if the C/C++ may also be used by C/C++ or
something else which likes S0CA) it is tricky. Getting COBOL to do the PUSH,
SET, POP (either manually or by compiler change) would be "overhead" that would
be paid for on every CALL.

Perhaps contact IBM. At least if there is a handy LE table of
module/entry-point, you could look at that at the end of the run and get
something from there to prioritise a list. And bear in mind that any one run
may not have exercised all the C/C++ programs that can potentially be CALLed.

If it is not directly documented that for COBOL to C/C++ the C/C++ mustn't
return to COBOL with the mask on, then perhaps that could be addressed as well.
But, for your C/C++ programs, identify (all), prioritise (yours, if you can
work it out), fix source and recompile.

More information may lead to some more targeted suggestions, but at the moment
it seems like (another) sticky issue for you.

Yes, I know that. The problem is that the module I'm looking for is not in the
