One more thought: Look At he SMF30 records for one such session. You should get 
an idea of what‘s going on in that process and its child processes. There will 
be one record  for each command, i.e. when a fork()ed or spawd()ed process 
ends, and at each exec(). You may find the one program eating up all that 
storage.

Re: Storage question

2018-11-22 Thread retired mainframer
RACF protects datasets, not dataset names.  If catalog services has access
to the UCAT and the DSNs are catalogued "normally," 3.4 will list the DSNs
with no problem.  You won't be able to do anything with the datasets but
that is a different issue.

DSNs that are not catalogued normally, or at all, can still be listed by
specifying the specific catalog or volume, as appropriate.

Absolutely. To be blunt, not sure how this relates to whether case sensitivity

Heh. Another friend once wrote a program using variables that were all named 
combinations of one, eye, zero, and oh. He gave up
trying to debug it.

 

I'd have voted against such a requirement; there are opportunities in pretty 
well any programming language to get in that sort of
trouble. A VERY long time ago-almost 40 years-I was helping a user with a 
FORTRAN program. We could not figure out why it seemed
like it wasn't executing a particular statement. Finally we realized that it 
followed a block comment with one too many Cs:

 

CThis is

C  a block

C  comment that

C  goes on for a while

C  X = 3

 

Oops. Not to be confused with the user who went to great pains to ensure that 
every comment line started with a C:

 

COMPLETE THE OPERATION, TRANSFERRING

CONTROL TO THE OTHER PROGRAM, WHICH

CAN THEN...

Looked VERY weird, since the brain said, "Those aren't comments!"

What was your argument string for BPXWDYN?  Return code?  Message text?

I have used SYSCALL open /dev/console followed by SYSCALL write.

o This gives no control of routing/descriptor.

o Automation may intercept BPXF024I.

Also possible:  SYSCALL writefile /dev/console

Also possible:  BPXWDYN( "alloc path('/dev/console') filedata(text) msg(WTP) 
..." )

Peter, Mike: Yes, I remember Peter pointing at Mark's page, but for some
reason I moved on past that to some other line of enquiry.
I've now done what you said, and the results from REXXSTOR in PuTTY are:

V I R T U A LS T O R A G EU S A G E
---
 REGION REQUESTED: 55296K
 LIMIT IN-USE  AVAIL
BELOW 16M:  8168K 4K  8164K
ABOVE 16M:   2088984K   840K   2088144K

So, the 55296K is that 54M that I've been chasing
and the rest of the report shows that I've been given the maximum amount of
memory possible - 2G, right?



Have you cut some columns? There should be more. The "Limit" is a bit 
misleading, since you can only have some 1.5G, the rest is in use by the 
common area.


Anyway, this session is not about to run out of storage, because only 
840K are in use. But this is you session, not the developer's, who is 
having the problems, right.  Can you have him to run that REXX after 
login and once he got to the out of storage?



Since the problem occurs only with _BPX_SHAREAS=YES, when all the 
processes share a single address space, what exactly are they trying to 
do? What has change since it worked?

Re: Looking for an appropriate system exit

2018-11-22 Thread Steff Gladstone
Three questions regarding IEFACTRT:

1. Where is use of IEFYS for writing messages to the JOBLOG documented?
The example given in the documentation for IEFACTRT is incomplete.  Google
doesn't seem to locate the doc as well.

2. I am abending on S0C4 because getmained areas are automatically being
freed at end of step, before IEFACTRT gets control.  It is not clear to me
if SUBPOOL alone can solve the problem.  Do I need to specify
TCBADDR=TCBJSTCB on  the STORAGE macro so that the "input TCB" is the
job-step TCB?  What course is recommended?

3. The documentation says one can dynamically allocate within IEFACTRT but
the BPXWDYN routine returns a non-zero return code.  (Same code that works
fine in a regular program.)  Is this a limitation of BPXWDYN? Should I code
an SVC 99 call myself?

Thank you  in advance,

So this whole exercise along with the temporary killing of my z/OS system
*has* been a waste of time.

I'm still left with the two messages though.
And further work by one of the developers shows that the problem occurs
only when BPX_SHAREAS=YES is defined.
Setting BPX_SHAREAS=NO makes the memory problem go away, but run-time
increases significantly.


Thanks for all your support on this problem, Peter - and everyone else who

Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: Storage question

2018-11-22 Thread Lizette Koehler
If you have CA (Computer Associates) products like CA1, CA DISK, CA PDSMAN, the 
list is endless

You can probably download the GMI (Graphical Management Interface) no-charge. 
It is considered SRM (Storage Resource Manager / SAMS) Lite

https://docops.ca.com/ca-1-tms/14-0/en/using/ca-vantage-gmi-graphical-management-interface

This is a nice way to see datasets and volumes.  This is a no-cost version of 
SRM.

I think CA still provides this so long as you have at least one CA Product from 
the list.

CA Vantage GMI is the graphical management interface product that allows you to 
view and manage mainframe activity from a PC. It consists of user-interface 
clients which interface with a z/OS server component to allow access to basic 
z/OS server functions.

https://docops.ca.com/ca-1-tms/14-0/en/using/ca-vantage-gmi-graphical-management-interface

You would need to verify it is still no-charge.


https://support.ca.com/us/product-content/recommended-reading/product-related-technical-information/ca-gmi-ordering-and-download-information.html

Several CA products support CA GMI. These are referred to as CA GMI qualified 
products. If you have a license for one of the CA GMI qualifying products, then 
you can order and install CA Vantage GMI on the host and its user-interface 
clients separately, free of charge. CA Vantage GMI cannot be ordered separately 
unless you have a license for one of the CA GMI qualifying products.

It's file 112. BTW, you can run it in batch.
It's allows masking by partial dsname (i.e. CONTAINING) and VOLSER 
Prefix (e.g. WORK will match WORK01, WORK02 etc.)
It will show which Datasets are CATLGd (or not) and allows for other 
selection criteria (e.g. not displaying VTOCIX and VVDS Datasets).

Do a 3.4 without dsname and volser *
SAVE list to a dataset.
Filter the HLQs with edit.
Create the required (IDCAMS?) statements from the dsnames.

All proposed solutions take some effort and time.

Re: z/OS 2.3 and WebSphere application server v7

2018-11-22 Thread Timothy Sipples
Duncan Brown wrote:
>I know that the 'official' answer from IBM is that WebSphere v7
>is not supported under z/OS 2.3, but we will not be off WebSphere
>application server for z/OS v7 for at least a couple of years.

To my knowledge that statement is correct only because WebSphere
Application Server for z/OS Version 7 reached End of Service on April 30,
2018. z/OS 2.3 became generally available on September 29, 2017. As far as
I know, that release combination was officially IBM supported between those
dates (and could still be officially IBM supported if you have obtained
Extended Support for WAS for z/OS V7 from IBM, which might be possible).

I don't see anything in the z/OS 2.3 Migration Guide that jumps out as a
problem, although there are a couple possible migration tasks that can be
indirectly related to WAS.

I would strongly recommend applying the latest available fixpack(s) to
bring the WAS release level up to 7.0.0.45 along with the corresponding
Java fixpacks (which should be included) for both the 31-bit and 64-bit
JVMs. The Java release level would then end up as SR16 FP60 with a build
date of 20180213. If IBM Extended Support is available and contracted there
may potentially be newer builds. (Ordinarily Extended Support is available
for up to 3 years, so through April 30, 2021, in this case.)

The Version 6 Java SDKs for z/OS reached End of Service on September 30,
2018. FP70 was the final release, and FP70 for z/OS still available for
download here (as I write this):

https://developer.ibm.com/javasdk/support/zos/

I would go grab all 4 builds (Version 6.0.0 31-bit and 64-bit, and Version
6.0.1 31-bit and 64-bit) *now*, just in case you need them. You might be
able to "hack" FP70 onto a WAS 7.0.0.45 installation on z/OS, and that
would cure whatever issues were resolved between Java V6 SR16 FP60 and SR16
FP70. However, 7.0.0.45 + FP70 wasn't an officially supported combination,
at least not under standard service. Nonetheless, you might decide to run
that custom combination, still at your own risk.

I'm really not sure why you're held back on WAS V7, though. Ordinarily any
"hold back," if it exists, is grounded in the underlying Java version. WAS
8.5.5 supported Java 6 -- the Java 6 part now past tense (see above), but
WAS 8.5.5 is still in service. So you should be able to move all the way up
as high as 8.5.5.13 with SDK 6.0.1 at the SR8 FP55 level, the very end of
the standard service road for the Java 6 line in WAS. Details here:

http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27005002#WAS855J6

Same thing with "hacking" SR16 FP70 into your WAS 8.5.5 installation --
that might be technically possible, and it would resolve known issues in
the SDK up through FP70, but the combination was never officially
supported, at least under standard service.

If you're indeed sticking on the SDK Version 6 part but can move forward to
WAS 8.5.5, that'd be much better. There's no End of Service date announced
yet for WAS 8.5.5, and it may be possible to get Extended Support just for
the SDK Version 6, a narrower proposition, through September 30, 2021, if
you need to go that long. Again, I'm assuming it's the Java version that's
holding you back, which is ordinarily the case if anything is holding you
back.

My recollection is that WAS 8.5.5 + Java 6 was sufficient to run
applications in Liberty Profile, and that might be a good idea. Let's
suppose for example that you have one lagging application that'll take a
couple years to remediate because there's something that breaks with Java 7
or higher, and code changes are required that are taking longer than you'd
like. Meanwhile, your other 68 applications (or whatever number) are
forging ahead and now run on WAS 9.x for z/OS. Instead of running two full,
separate WAS instances (or multi-instances since you're probably clustered)
at different release levels, maybe you could reduce the footprint of the
laggard by running it in a smaller, backlevel-Java Liberty instance (8.5.5
+ Java 6). The laggard application would need to be repackaged and
redeployed, but the code wouldn't have to change. Or you might move the
laggard into a backlevel-Java CICS Liberty instance. That approach, if
viable, should cut down on some memory use if nothing else.

Re: Region size for OMVS tasks

2018-11-22 Thread Sean Gleann
Thanks to all that have responded - we're back and running again, but not
due to any work on my part.



My description of the failed system was not complete, for fear of confusing
the issue - it is a guest z/OS under z/VM that is supplied by a.n. other
party. I contacted them and the bad IEFUSI was renamed by a techie at their
end.



Rob: thanks for the referral to cbttape. I wasn't aware of that particular
file there. I'll take a closer look later. I've had the comfort of a
recovery system in the past. Sadly, that wasn't an option for me in this
case.



Peter: "...[54m value] has no meaning and will later be replaced..." Yes -
Overnight I began to understand that.

No matter what I've done so far, that SMF30RGN value continues to report
'54M'. I 'new' thought for me in the course of this work is that SMF30RGN
is the REGION size that was _requested_ (as per the documentation). It is
not the size actually _given_ after IEFUSI/SMF/JES, etc have finished their
meddling. As far as I make out, there is no such 'after the fact' value
logged in any part of the type30 record (or any other).

Which basically means that all this work has been a waste of time, based on
a misconception.



Peter again: [paging space related to the problem]... sorry - my poor
description there. The alternate SYS1.IPLPARM(LOADxx) member leads to an
incomplete definition that does not specify any paging space, so it won't
IPL.



Carmen and Peter: I simply did not think about the possibilities of SETPROG
EXIT..., My mind was chasing itself in circles at the time. And then the
supplier's technician fixed things up.





I must re-visit my failed 'back-out' LOADPARM member and make sure it
brings up a minimal system - possibly with whatever I find on the cbttape.

And abandon this line of effort - I'm pretty certain that SMF30RGN point
above is correct.



Unfortunately, that leaves the cause  of the original IEW4000I and CSV031I
messages unsolved. I will have to think of a different way to attack the
problem.

Storage question

2018-11-22 Thread Sankaranarayanan, Vignesh
Hello again List!

Is there a way to produce a listing of datasets (given the HLQs) based entirely 
on VTOCs?
The assumption would be that the following are no longer available:

  1.  RACF profile HLQ.*
  2.  RACF user/group named 'HLQ'
  3.  Alias named 'HLQ' defined to some UCAT

When the above 3 are true, I would think that we can't find the datasets in 
3.4, but can from the ISMF Dataset screen.
My luck with the ISMF Dataset screen is inconsistent.. so would prefer another 
scalable or repeatable approach.

Thanks!
