I've done POC but never used it in practice. XMIT in instream JCL suffers the risk that there is no digraph safe to use in DLM=. Rexx sadly lacks an instream data facility.

Re: A Million Years
We use IEBDG to generate separator recordS between concatenated XMIT files for our LINKLIB, panels, msgs, etc. That sandwich then gets converted to printable EBCDIC and imbedded within REXX code that will self-unpack those XMIT files (via TSO/E RECEIVEs) when invoked on z/OS.

Re: z16 ETS setup question - where's the best documentation?
Perfect, thank you! Thomas Ambros zEnterprise Operating Systems zEnterprise Systems Management 518-436-6433 -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List On Behalf Of Tom Brennan Sent: Monday, October 17, 2022 18:26 To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: z16 ETS setup question - where's the best documentation? WARNING: This email originated externally. Exercise caution. Think before clicking links or opening attachments. On a z16 I'm involved with I noticed the Customized Planning Aid has a section on ETS, including this paragraph: "External Time Source (ETS) IP network considerations: For redundancy and resiliency, The IP addresses ETS1 and ETS2 must be configured on different subnets. When planning the Ethernet based External Time Source network, it is required that two separate subnets corresponding to ETS1and ETS2 are routable to the desired NTP/PTP time source(s)." And maybe there's more in that chapter that might help. To get the planning aid (if you don't know), logon to Resource Link, go to the z16 section, find "Customized planning aids" and there you have to order the document for your machine and download it an hour or so later.

Re: A Million Years
We use IEBUPDTE for Assembler source change application. SUPERC can compare two source programs and generate a Delta file in IEBUPDTE format. We even use IEBDG as part of a process when packaging our product elements for customer download. Mike Shaw MVS/QuickRef Support Group Chicago-Soft, Ltd.
