Re: Help with MQ and MA10: MQ Series for MVS/ESA ISPF Utilities
Sorry for the delay.
These are SupportPacs for MQ V8. Not sure how much what version you are on
means. Like CSQ4TVH1 is supplied, listed as a Sample to play with, and offered
standalone in MA17. I have an open question with IBM about which CSQ4TVH1 to
use. I get 24/32 bit HCONN errors.

What is this MQ app whereof you speak? Is MA10 a separate product? I have a
passel of V7 MQ libraries including SCSQPNLE, but no member MQAPPS nor program
MQDLQ0.

Help with MQ and MA10: MQ Series for MVS/ESA ISPF Utilities
Dear Group,
I am trying to get the ISPF based tool MQDLQ to work with MQ V8. The
program MQDLQ0 is part of MA10 and wants a Queue Manager name as input. I have
tried ISPF PARM and ISPF VPUT. Does anyone have MQDLQ working from a panel
that supplies the Queue Manager Name?
@MQ EXEC starts this up (MQMQ.ISPPLIB and MQQM.ISPLLIB have the code):
"ALTLIB ACTIVATE APPLICATION(CLIST) DATASET('MQM.SCSQEXEC')"
"ISPEXEC LIBDEF ISPPLIB DATASET
ID('MQM.SCSQPNLE','MQMQ.ISPPLIB')"
"ISPEXEC LIBDEF ISPTLIB DATASET ID('MQM.SCSQTBLE')"

Well I left the PANEL code and invoked MQDLQ but I didn't get DLQM back from
the ISPF VGET.
In my first attempt I tried to pass a PARM(). The NEWAPPL has
something to do with the LIBDEFS.
Q). How do I pass a PARM in the )PROC section of an ISPF panel? ZSEL =
CMD(MQDLQ) NEWAPPL(MQDL) PASSLIB PARM(QQA1) results in: CMD conflicts with
another keyword. Not sure why.
On my second attempt I tried to use VPUT and VGET. My VPUT works because
when I go back in I see what I last typed for a field value.
Q). How do I pull in my ISPF VAR? I have used VGET before: ADDRESS ISPEXEC
"VGET (MYCMD)". The Default list is ASIS, I used PROFILE. My panel picks it
up, but my REXX/CLIST doesn't find it.
Yup, I know last one didn't resolve MQDLQ0 but I still am trying to get my
variable to work. I keep spinning this around but I just haven't found my way
through it.
Many thanks as always, Dave

Help with WebSphere MQ sample programs.
Dear favored listeners, We recently went from MQ V7 to MQ V8. I have been working with IBM. I was guided away from an old PUBSUB example because I was told a lot has changed and it would be uphill all the way. V8 has a new "CICS Asynchronous Consumption and Publish/Subscribe sample". I switched from IBM MQ support to IBM CICS support to get these complied. However in working with IBM they said this new "PUBSUB" also will have a lot of work needed to get this running. I am new to MQ. I have CICS and MQ tied together. I have two Queue Managers that I can ping the channels on. Q). What are other people using as a sample COBOL program to put a message to an MQ Queue? This would be point-to-point. I then could "move" the Queue to a different Queue Manager.

SYSPROC Concatenation?
Hi, I went to https://listserv.ua.edu/cgi-bin/wa and did a search on IBM-MAIN and IBM-MAIN-ARCHIVES (1986-2004). I did a search for SYSPROC and got no match. On one system I have ISRDDN showing SYSPROC with my CLIST concatenated. I can use ALTLIB (or SPROC) to add it in to the other system. But I have to manually add these and repeat it. My logon Procedure is xxxACCNT. I looked in SYS2.LOG and SYS2.CLIST(SPFALLOC) for my userid to find userid.CLIST but am not finding it. I looked through the userid.lpar.ISPF .PROFILE datasets.

Hello, I am looking for a sample program for MQ. I can find a lot of CICS COBOL samples for programs that prompt and get back text.

rsync anyone?
Hi, I have been working with IBM to identify how to move a USS directory that has files and subdirectories to a different LPAR. They said Ported Tools and the scp command. However, OpenSSH has had security issues IIRC. The other thing they mentioned was to port rsync over to z/OS. I also have directions on how to voice this as a requirement to USS development using the RFE process. Q). Does anyone have a better way to move a directory that has files and subdirectories to a different LPAR? Or do you just keep installing the same code for each instance? Q).

Re: Where is the z/OS java Book?
Kevin, I was hoping that java for z/OS had an IVP procedure documented in the Program Directory for HVJB700 (GI11-9829-00). I didn't see anything to even something to check the java version. I looked for a java samplib but didn't find anything. I see in the program directory there are Sample Jobs. AJVJMKD (MKDIR) is a sample job to invoke the supplied AJVJMKDR EXEC to allocate file system paths. I don't know if I have access to these Sample Jobs. It looks like they may have copied the jobs from the relfiles to a work data set for editing and submission. I was just curious what I needed to do for my OMVS session to take full advantage of java.

D is an alias of DISPLAY. z/OS UNIX Services do not use a couple data set if you run with SYSPLEX=NO. It seems to be that the information you're looking for is retrieved from the CDS. Specifically, the term OWNER denotes the z/OS instance that is the system that is currently responsible for the mounted file system. Ownership can be transferred to another system in the sysplex, either if the system is shutdown, or by command. Ownership in this sense does not apply with SYSPLEX=NO. You can mount a files sytem in R/W mode on one system only and this is also the owner. If the D OMVS,F... answers your request, this system is automatically the owner. A file system can be mounted in R/O mode on multiple systems concurrently, but each system is owning its own mount. They do not talk to each other regarding file system activity. -- Peter Hunkeler -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
Re: BPXOINIT and SYSPLEX Mode Question
Peter, I can get very confused reading the books. This is from the V1R13 MVS System Commands book for D OMVS,U: U=userid Displays process information for all processes associated with the specified TSO/E user ID. Use this operand when a user requests that a hung process be canceled. You can display all processes owned by the user and find the address space ID (ASID) of the process that needs to be canceled. Then use the CANCEL command to cancel the address space.

Just hoping I could learn more about the USERIDs from BPXOINIT that are filling up /tmp. I suppose I can start a batch shell process using the OMVS segment associated with IBMUSER. Would I show up as an MVS USERID? Yup, When we move from V1R13 to V1R2 the superuser stuff will change. So far with the superuser changes we have been getting hit with OWNERSHIP issues in regards to IBMUSER in the filesystems. I just find it interesting the OMVS DISPLAY can see the PID, but not the USERID. The shell knows about the PID and about IBMUSER (or some UID=0 USER).

How can IBMUSER have PID 50331938 that's using /tmp and not be found as an OMVS USERID? There is no such thing as a TSO USERID or OMVS USERID. There are only MVS USERIDs. Every STC, job or user session runs with a specific MVS USERID (short userid hereafter). If a user wants to be able to logon to TSO, its userid needs an attachement called TSO segment. Similarly, if user, job, STC, etc. wants to use some z/OS UNIX function, the corresponding userid and the associated group need an attachement called OMVS segment. The OMVS segments, besides other attributes, hold the important UNIX attributes UID and GID. File system objects, such as directories, files, links, etc., are *owner* by a UID and belong to a GID. UNIX processes have UIDs and GIDs assigned. These are pure numbers, not names! Mostly, when UNIX ownership is displayed as result of a command, the number (UID, GID) is translated to the associated USERID and GROUP, resp. with the help of the security product. This works fine as long as you don't have any UID or GID shared, i.e. assigned to more than one USERID or GROUP. I bet IBMUSER does have an OMVS segment with UID=0. There seem to be multiple USERIDs with UID=0 in their OMVS segments. In response to the command, uid=0 is translated back to a USERID, and its just one of those having the uid that will be shown. Note this is not specific to uid=0; it equally applies to any uid that is shared between USERIDs. Try D OMVS,PID=ddd' where ddd is the *decimal* value corresponding the pid show in *hex* in the response to the fuser command. -- Peter Hunkeler -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
BPXOINIT and SYSPLEX Mode Question
Dear Friends, I've noticed on our z/OS V1R13 system that we do a F BPXOINIT,SHUTDOWN= and it works! However about z/OS V1R7 came a BPXPRMxx parameter SYSPLEX(YES/NO). We are a SYSPLEX=NO shop. So when I enter F BPXOINIT,FILESYS=DISPLAY,FILESYSTEM=/TMP I get an error: BPXM106I UNIX SYSTEM SERVICES WAS NOT STARTED IN SYSPLEX MODE. I am looking for some help after reading the books. Perhaps the UID and OWNER information is only populated with zFS ownership (rather that z/OS UNIX ownership) of filesystems. I'd still like to track down our /tmp users in a non-shared environment. Supposedly /tmp filled up the other day and we IPL'd. UID=0 can report different USERIDs if they are all UID=0. It looks like OMVS USERIDS and TSO USERIDS also reported differently. And OWNERSHIP might change depending on whether or not you have zFS Sysplex Sharing (SYSPLEX=YES). Q). It says The Modify Function Cannot Be Performed. Besides turning on SYSPLEX=YES, how can I get BPXOINIT to do a FILESYS=DISPLAY?

Help with FFST/MVS and the first failure symptoms component?
Dear Big Iron People, (Still waiting to get on the CICS-L list) FFST/MVS (First Failure Support Technology/MVS): http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/zos/v2r1/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.zos.v2r1.e0za100%2Fe0za10015.htm Q1).

It's documented in the CICS TS for z/OS 5.1 Installation Guide in Chapter 30. MVS ASREXIT - SYMREC Authorization Exit. I read the CICS Problem Determination Guide. There are quite a few references to first failure: General CICS tracing is handled by the CICS trace domain. It traces the flow of execution through CICS code, and through your applications as well. You can see what functions are being performed, which parameters are being passed, and the values of important data fields at the time trace calls are made. This type of tracing is also useful in first failure data capture, if an exception condition is detected by CICS. In addition, exception trace entries are always written to the internal trace table, even if no trace destinations are currently started. Other trace destinations that are currently started get the exception trace entry as well, but the entry always goes to the internal trace table even if you have turned tracing off completely. This function provides first failure data capture. CICS exception tracing is always done by CICS when it detects an exception condition. The sorts of exception that might be detected include bad parameters on a domain call, and any abnormal response from a called routine. The aim is first failure data capture, to record data that might be relevant to the exception as soon as possible after it has been detected. It may just look like they could be related.I didn't find a section in the CICS manuals (yet) about a CICS first failure symptoms component. Q2).

Re: Help with CICS CEMT display
Kolusu, Thank you for your suggestions. I tabbed to the beginning of the line and hit PF1 and just got the general help. I placed the cursor on TAS and hit PF1, and also on TRA and hit PF1. Yup, I also tried it with the cursor on SUS. The link is a good one. But it doesn't tell me the field names I am seeing on the display: Tas(029) Tra(JNL2) Sus Tas Pri( 255 ) Sta(U ) Use(CICMNX1 ) Uow(CDBC6D3E2D965E09) Tas(0002138) Tra(CEMT) Fac(0001) Run Ter Pri( 255 ) Sta(TO) Use(PMSBDH ) Uow(CDBE117F38E7F508) The second entry is me running CEMT.

I'm attempting to assemble an information roadmap and find very little that introduces the operating system with a fairly narrow scope at a reasonably introductory level. There are books that describe bits and pieces of it, ad-nauseum, but I find little that paints all of these pieces together into a bigger picture. Some sources that I have found include Introduction to the new Mainframe: z/OS Basics and some volumes in the ABCs of System Programming series. They do a fair job of providing a technical overview of the various storage managements and IOS. I'd especially like to see something that describes components in terms of new hardware capabilities and how MVS has evolved: 1) The original dispatcher (especially RBs and interrupt management), task management (especially the difference between DUs), program management (especially the PSW and what APF means), storage management and I/O management 2) Serialization techniques over the years (WAIT/POST, ENQ/DEQ, Locks, Latches) 3) Additions to the dispatcher (SRM and WLM) 4) Storage evolution (24bit-to-31bit in XA, ARs and data spaces in ESA, 31bit-to-64bit in z/OS) 5) Centralized (shared) programming support (e.g. SVCs, subsystems, PCs) 6) Availability improvements (e.g. GRS, sysplex [XCF] and parallel sysplex [XES]) I'd appreciate pointers to any materials you deem relevant.

Re: Now IEBGENER, Was Help with IEBCOPY?
Lizette,
Thank you for your suggestion. This is a flat to PDS thing and does not
include VSAM.
I have got this to work:
'LMMREN DATAID('INDD')
MEMBER(VTAMAPPL) NEWNAME(VTAMAPPP) NOENQ'
I will look for a copy. Copy and rename can be interesting, especially with
VSAM and ADRDSSU. For VSAM I got this to work:
RENUNC(VPS.VPSMN3.VPSCKPT.V2R10, -
VPS.VPSMN1.VPSCKPT) -
IIRC, the VSAM parts came out like .I and .D instead of .INDEX and .DATA.
Still learning all these ins and outs of MVS. Probably will be for a while.
Thanks again, Have a great weekend, Dave

An interesting process might be to write a REXX using ISPF LM functions. You
can have a panel prompt for your user, and selection info. Then use ISPF To
save members
You can read and write members once you get use to the process.
It might be very helpful to invoke ISPF, unless you are going to use this as a
Batch process. You can still write it with ISPF LM functions, just some
considerations have to be kept in mind.

Dear Group,
Thank you for the discussion on this. I started trying to look
into writing a REXX exec to select my KEY input and build the dataset
members needed to continue. I used to do this using the ISPF panels by hand.
I thought the panel was using IBM code. But I was told it was not
and we did something so it was this way. Thank you for pointing out
that using IEBCOPY with REXX also pulled in some other vendor software.
I can read the same file in and massage my key for each need. I
usually build two members that have the same information in two
different formats that are static and I can go back and reference.
So, after consideration. I will go back to REXX EXECIO. I need to
massage the data anyway. It will run two steps, reading the same file
twice, but creating different outputs.
I learned more about the MVS utilities :) Was wondering if
IEBGENER allowed creating two members from the same input data, in one
step. IEBGENER appears to not loop back to the top to re-evaluate
(edit) the same input data. Amazing how copy and sort can lead down
so many paths. Need more GOBACK commands :)

Dynamic VIPA and Sysplex Distributor - Question
Dear VIPA Gurus, We are playing with dynamic VIPA and sysplex distributor on z/OS V1R13. The Network guy is puzzled with some of this and I think I got enough information from him. External users use the same VIPA to access our application no matter where it runs. Application runs in one place at a time. When the application started task tries to come up, it is managed by this routing thing (the heart of the DVIPA and sysplex distributor management which runs on one of our LPARs). The Network guy showed me some stuff on how he set this up on VTAM for TCP and IIRC he correlated the VIPA address with some kind of IP Address that wasn't the VIPA or the raw interface IP Address. Q). Should the application on the host side default to the IP Address of the stack, or should the application on the host side be configured with the DVIPA? Q). Would these IP Addresses that correlate to the DVIPA be used on the host side behind the router? Would one of these addresses be what I should configure for our application with on the host side? Q). Any experiences anyone would like to share? Thank you, Dave -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN

Help with IEBCOPY?
Dear listeners, I am trying to use IEBCOPY to copy a sequential data set to a partitioned dataset. We are running z/OS V1R13. I looked in the DFSMSdfp Utilities (SC26-7414-07). I found Example 8: Loading a Data Set. However this example says the sequential data set was created using an IEBCOPY unload operation. I found Example 9: Unload Selected Members, Load, Copy and Merge. However the sequential datasets are used as output. I tried C I=INDD1,O=OUTDD1 and S M=(DRSSKEY,KEYLRS).

Now IEBGENER, Was Help with IEBCOPY?
Gerhard and all, I have been kicking the sample around. I have been working with these control statements using IEBGENER: V1 = GENERATE MAXNAME=2,MAXGPS=1 V2 =MEMBER NAME=DRSSKEY /* V3 = GROUP1 RECORD IDENT=(8,'FIRSTMEM',1) */ V3 = GROUP1 RECORD IDENT V4 =MEMBER NAME=KEYLRS My input file is a sequential file. My output is a PDS. Both are predefined. Generate is required for a PDS. MAXNAME is set to 2 because I want to create two members: DRSSKEY and KEYLRS with two MEMBER statements. MAXGRP is set to 1 because I only have 1 GROUP statement. Not sure what GROUP1 does for me, it looks like it's just a label. Member name DRSSKEY works great. I can iebgener a flat file to a PDS member. However, I 'm lost on the IDENT. It talks about editing. If I just key GROUP1 RECORD IDENT it wants more. If I give it the 'FIRSTMEM' it appears to not match and stops with only DRSSKEY created in the PDS from the flat file. IDENT identifies the last record of a collection of records in the input data set. The first RECORD statement (GROUP1) identifies the last record to be placed in the first member. The name of this record (FIRSTMEM) appears in the first eight positions of the input record. This looks to be evaluating what's in my flat file. The remaining MEMBER and RECORD statements define the second and third members. There is no RECORD statement associated with the third MEMBER statement, the remainder of the input file will be loaded as the third member. Do I need to know what's in my input file? I just want the whole flat file as a member (or two) in a PDS. If this does editing I don't know what to do with that. Q). How can I code the IDENT so it matches and creates my second member in the PDS? Yes, I could run this process twice (or do a copy to get my second member).

Kolusu,
I tried your link and it took me to appendix A in the ISPF Users Guide. I
tried searching for FILECMP and DELTAL. I didn't find any information on these.
I looked at the samples and the JCL has PARM=(DELTAL,LINECMP,'',''). I
searched the whole users guide for LINECMP and only found this //COMPARE EXEC
PGM=ISRSUPC,PARM=('LINECMP,CHNGL,UPDCNTL').
Q). Where can I find information on DELTAL and FILECMP? I tried using
CYTPE(FILE) but I get INVALID KEYWORD, CTYPE(FILE). SUPERC offers four compare

Re: 0C4 from TSOEXEC IEBCOMPR
Terry, Thank you for your update. I am changing course away from IEBCOMPR and moving towards ISRSUPC. I found our ISPF SAMPLIB that has ISRSCLST and ISRSPROC. I would like to automate comparing a bunch of FONT libs. Our ISPF LOAD lib has ISRSUPC. I tried TSOEXEC ISRSUPC in my EXEC. It just hung. I looked at what was required and I thought with the defaults that maybe something would complete. OK, I can do this. I'll just call ISPF from my EXEC. I tried ISPEXEC SELECT PGM(ISRSUPC). I've done some panels, but I have not done much with calling ISPF programs. This also just hung. My trace === 30 *-* ISPEXEC SELECT PGM(ISRSUPC) L ISPEXEC SELECT PGM(ISRSUPC) It looks like the example ISRSCLST. But I didn't pass LISTING, CTYPE, or PROCESS. They should default. Q). Both calls to ISRSUPC just hang. Is there something in the environment I have not taken into consideration I need to setup? Can ISRSUPC be called from either TSOEXEC and ISPEXEC?

RC 24 from ISRSUPC (Was 0C4 from TSOEXEC IEBCOMPR)
Dear Group,
Ok, I got IEBCOMPR to work:
ALLOC FI(SYSUT1) DA('PMSBDH.VPS.LRS.AFP.V2R10.FDEFLIB') SHR
ALLOC FI(SYSUT2) DA('VPS.LRS.VPS.V2R10.FDEFLIB') SHR

if cc 0 Then Do
SAY IEBCOMPR FAILED FOR AFP.V2R10.FDEFLIB
...
FREE FI(SYSUT1 SYSUT2 SYSIN SYSPRINT)
With IEBCOMPR I look for a RC of 0.
I found this site:
http://computer-programming-forum.com/38-rexx/35af2e8f164fb280.htm and this
EXEC:
/* test si version prod et approd identique */
say Test si version PROD et APPROD identique

address TSO alloc fi(olddd) da('A3WD.APPROD3.CICS(pgm)') shr reu
address tso call *(isrsupc)
if rc = 0 then
do
say version identique.
end
else
do
say ! VERSION PROD APPROD DIFFERENTES !
exit
end
Mostly this just hangs for me, but once I did get an RC of 24. In the
ISPF User's Guide it says RC 24 is ERROR. I/O Error writing to the output
listing file.
Q). Does this Example need some more work?
I found some doc that said ISRSUPC was documented in the ISPF User guide.
Vol 2. I have been looking for where the KEYWORDS are listed for ISRSSUPC. In
appendix A they list some stuff.
It says: The keywords and parameters are:
CTYPE Specifies the compare type. The parameter can be one
of the SuperC compare types (File, Line, Word, or Byte). To call the
Search-For program, use CTYPE(SRCH).
PROCESS Specifies the process options
OK, I want ISRSUPC to use a CTYPE of FILE to do a file level compare.
I tried:
CALL *(ISRSUPC) FILE
INVALID KEYWORD, FILE
CALL *(ISRSUPC) CTYPE(FILE)
INVALID KEYWORD, CTYPE(FILE)FILE
I saw PGM=ISRSUPC),PARM=(DELTAL,LINECMP,'',''). So I tried:
CALL *(ISRSUPC) FILECMP
INVALID KEYWORD, FILECMP
Q). Where are the Keyword and Parameters for SUPERC (aka ISRSUPC) found?

FREE DA('VPS.LRS.PROD.LRSKEYS')
A simple logoff/logon should also resolve *your* allocation. However, I suspect
that the dataset 'VPS.LRS.PROD.LRSKEYS' may also be allocated to the VPS
started task.
The TSO UTILITIES/COMMANDS assume DISP=OLD (or DISP=NEW) for the output
dataset. Either disposition will look for an exclusive ENQ on the dataset name.
Thus, any allocation *you* attempt will fail.
IMO, the simplest resolution would be to execute IEBCOPY in batch with a
specified disposition of SHR for the target dataset. This should only be done
if you understand, that the target dataset 'VPS.LRS.PROD.LRSKEYS' is not opened
for OUTPUT by the VPS STC.

retyped the exec and see an incorrect DNAME.
This is my new EXEC:
'LMINIT DATAID(INDD) DATASET('PMSBDH.LIB.DOC') ENQ(EXCLU)'
'LMINIT DATAID(OUTDD) DATASET('VPS.WORKSPC') ENQ(EXCLU)'
'LMCOPY FROMID('INDD') TODATAID('OUTDD')
FROMMEM(VPSBYNET) TOMEM(VPSBYNET)

'LMCOPY FROMID('INDD') TODATAID('OUTDD')
FROMMEM(VPSBYDST) TOMEM(VPSBYDST)

'LMCOPY FROMID('INDD') TODATAID('OUTDD')
FROMMEM(XESPRTRS) TOMEM(XESPRTRS)

'LMFREE DATAID('INDD')'
'LMFREE DATAID('OUTDD')'

Dear Helpers,
LMFREE doesn't have any extra parameters. I keep getting a
message about ALREADY IN USE, TRY LATER+, DATA SET IS ALLOCATED
TO ANOTHER JOB OR USER. GRS shows I'm doing this to myself. This
is my LMCOPY

LMFREE DATAID('INDD')
LMFREE DATAID('OUTDD')
The LMFREE does not generate an error. I get no errors running
the EXEC and it does what I want. Except it's doesn't free my dataset.
I added: Address TSO FREE FI(INDD OUTDD). It generated an error
FILE INDD NOT FREED, IS NOT ALLOCATED.
Q). Do I need to OPEN and CLOSE to do an LMFREE correctly?

Re: TSO REXX and GRS Commnad Output
Thank you for your reply. The TSO/E REXX Reference documents GETMSG. It
also provides some examples of using GETMSG. Example 4 is what I started with.
It doesn't show CONSPROF. Things are working much better with CONSPROF. A
healthy dose of RTFM has been prescribed.

I have no idea what example you were looking at, but that manual is very clear
on needing CONSPROF if you want to retrieve messages.
To use GETMSG, you must:
Have CONSOLE command authority
Have solicited or unsolicited messages stored rather than
displayed at the terminal during a console session. Your
installation may have set up a console profile for you so
that the messages are not displayed. You can also use the
TSO/E CONSPROF command to specify that solicited or
unsolicited messages should not be displayed during a
console session.
My Return code is 4.
4 GETMSG processing was successful. However,
GETMSG did not retrieve the message.
There are several reasons why GETMSG may not
be able to retrieve the message based on the
arguments you specify on the function call.
GETMSG returns a function code of 4 if one of
| | the following occurs: |
No messages were available to be retrieved
|
The messages did not match the search
criteria you specified on the function|
| | call
You specified the time argument and the
time limit expired before the message was |
| | available.|
I noticed that while I traced the above EXEC that it looked like I got
the messages back to my terminal screen.
Expected, given the rc 4.
So I tried OUTTRAP. No luck.
This is one of several annoying cases where IBM uses TPUT instead of PUTLINE; I
suspect that in this case they had no choice.

TSO REXX and GRS Commnad Output
Dear REXX people,
I am trying to get the result from a GRS command into an array. We are

shows mcode = getmsg('dispmsg.','sol',,,120). So the stem dispmsg. will have

GRS command works and produces four messages:
ISG343I 09.19.51 GRS STATUS
NO ENQ RESOURCE CONTENTION EXITS
NO REQUESTS PENDING FOR ISGLOCK STRUCTURE
NO LATCH CONTENTION EXISTS
My Return code is 4. Perhaps the return code tells me how many messages I
got back. My EXEC dies on the Do i = 1 to CNSL.0 with Bad arithmetic
conversion. CNSL.0 shows up as CNSL.0 in the trace.
address TSO 'CONSOLE ACTIVATE'
address CONSOLE 'D GRS,C'
mrc = 0
msgindex = 0
/* RETRIEVE OUTPUT COMMAND */
mrc = getmsg('CNSL.','SOL',,,3)
Do i = 1 to CNSL.0
msgindex = msgindex + 1
msg.msgindex = CNSL.i
End
msg.0 = msgindex
Do i = 1 to msg.0
Say msg.i
End
address TSO 'CONSOLE DEACTIVATE'
Q). What am I missing? Why doesn't CNSL. Get populated? I saw the EXAMPLE 4

You are authorized to use console, correct? If you do it interactively (not
tracing the REXX exec) do you get the response back at the terminal?
Have you tried to set CONSPROF as part of your exec? Try adding this:
CONSPROF UNSOLDISP(NO) SOLDISP(NO)

z/OS Static Route Advertisements
Cross posted to IBMTCP-L and IBM-MAIN. Dear group, I thought I knew what I was talking about. However, z/OS V1R13 static routes are replaceable! So before the dynamic routing gets done we have connectivity through our static route. Then the routing updates replace our static route. A static route should only be for my IP stack and it should only be for out bound traffic. I heard our static route was advertised by OUR LAN group and now it won't be. Like any route we should advertise where our routes go and what they cost. I advertise who I am connected to so when you send things to me a can forward them. If it's a direct route then there are no intervening hops (like our static route). So I am confused about dynamic (replaceable) static routes. Q). Does OSPF advertise the static route change?

). Is there an advantage to using N2 over MN1? The terminology gets confusing. I tried this just to confuse myself: I ran three jobs to print output, but I put them on HOLD. My OUTPUTS were: DEFAULT=Y,DEST=N4.U9889DP,CLASS=H DEFAULT=Y,DEST=N2.U9889DP,CLASS=H *** OWNNODE *** DEFAULT=Y,DEST=N12.U9889DP,CLASS=H I looked at SDSF O and saw: RMT is Blank and NODE is 2 for all three. DEST is LOCAL . The output for N2.U9889DP has an extra piece with DEST U9889DP (The actual payload to print). Q). Why doesn't 4 or 12 show up under NODE? I used N4 and N12. I am not sure why you are not getting answers to your questions or guidance. Perhaps no one has ever needed to do this function in an Exit. You may need to work with JES2 L2 to get this resolved.

FW: JES2 Node Question
I request for knowledge. CROSS POSTED to JES2 and IBM. From: Hansen, Dave L - Eagan, MN Sent: Wednesday, September 11, 2013 10:45 AM To: 'jes...@listserv.vt.edu'; 'i...@listserv.uark.edu' Subject: JES2 Node Question Dear Group, I have been working with IBM to Implement a JES2 EXIT 40. I am doing this without too much JES knowledge. I was asked to move output from one MVS spool to another. We had a product (VPS) that would take the print off the MVS spool and send it to remote printers. Now we don't run that software at our west side location. I just want to change N1.U1234 to N2.U1234. Then JES will ROUTE the output from N1 to N2. However the change results in N1.U1234 being modified to N2.R1234. I did some testing and things are not as I expected. Q). On the SDSF screen - With the EXIT in place, Why doesn't Node reflect my change to N2? RMT is now 1234. NODE is supposed to be the JES Print Node. I would expect the node to be the destination node. From SDSF I entered NODE. It see N2, MN1 and OWNNODE. So we are #2 aka MN1. Q). Is there an advantage to using N2 over MN1? The terminology gets confusing. I tried this just to confuse myself: I ran three jobs to print output, but I put them on HOLD. My OUTPUTS were: DEFAULT=Y,DEST=N4.U9889DP,CLASS=H DEFAULT=Y,DEST=N2.U9889DP,CLASS=H *** OWNNODE *** DEFAULT=Y,DEST=N12.U9889DP,CLASS=H I looked at SDSF O and saw: RMT is Blank and NODE is 2 for all three. DEST is LOCAL . The output for N2.U9889DP has an extra piece with DEST U9889DP (The actual payload to print). Q). Why doesn't 4 or 12 show up under NODE? I used N4 and N12. Perhaps we have something in JES setup to change something to R? We are testing this on two separate JES2 systems. They may not be the same, and I sure don't know what is normal. On one system I see SDSF output with RMT as 7298, NODE as BLANK, and DEST as U7298. Q). Why would this job have a BLANK NODE? The systems are different and I bet the jobs we ran were different also. I guess it all depends. I'm just not sure what it all depends on. The reason I ask is my assembler job is looking to match $OWNNODE to PDBDNODE. I took out that line because I have no idea what these NODEs should be. Right now I just change PDBDNODE regardless of what it was.

Re: JES2 EXIT 40 ASMA90 Parm Question
Thank You Michael and Seymour for your thought invoking responses. I will use RENT. Thanks Again, Dave -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Toole, Michael Sent: Wednesday, August 21, 2013 3:03 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: JES2 EXIT 40 ASMA90 Parm Question Reentrant code considerations are contingent on the calling environment.An exit routine called from the JES2 main task must be reentrant in the JES2 sense. The JES2 dispatching unit, commonly called JES2 processors, running under a processor control element (PCE) perform the processing for the JES2 main task. The JES2 dispatcher controls what PCE is currently active (that is, what JES2 processor is currently running). Because a JES2 processor doesn't relinquish control to another JES2 processor involuntarily, an exit routine, invoked out of a JES2 main task processor may use a nonreentrant work area; the work area is serialized if the exit routine doesn't issue a $WAIT macro or until the exit routine or service called from an exit routine does issue the $WAIT macro. When the exit routine issues the $WAIT macro directly or through a called routine, control returns to the JES2 dispatcher and the serialization on the nonreentrant work area ceases. The nonreentrant work area may also be passed between exit routines, or between an exit routine and JES2, before a $WAIT macro call. Work areas to be used across a $WAIT must either be within the processor work area established as part of the processor control element (PCE) or else must be directly owned by the processor. In the same JES2 reentrant sense, an exit routine may search or manipulate a JES2 queue providing it has ownership of the queue and doesn't issue a $WAIT macro until this action is completed.An exit routine called from a JES2 subtask, from the user environment, or from the FSS environment must be reentrant in the MVS sense. The exit routine must be capable of taking an MVS interrupt at any point in its processing. The exit routine must be able to handle the simultaneity of execution with other subtasks and user address space, or functional subsystem (FSS) routines and with the JES2 main task.The following actions may produce unpredictable results: Modifying control block fields designed for use by the JES2 main task only (for example, $DOUBLE, $GENWORK, and so on.)

JES2 Destination Node Change Question
Dear JES2 experts, I am not well versed in JES2. Node AB will no longer have printers. I need to direct the output to node CD for DESTs of U*. Wild cards can be fun. These printers are not defined to JES2 as DESTIDs == /$ADDDEST(JSV458),DEST=N1.U113 So $TOJQ,/DEST=AB.U*,QUEUE=X will select NODE AB and DEST U*. Q). Will $TOJ,/DEST=AB,U*,/DEST=CD.U* change AB.U1234 to CD.U1234 and AB.U6789 to CD.U6789? Q). Would there be a better way to point all the U* DESTs to NODE CD?

ISRE093 - In Use ** Imacro problem **
Dear Masters of MVS IMACROS,
We are running z/OS V1R13 and I have coded two macros from the ISPF Edit and
Edit Macros book.
I created ISRIMBED:
ADDRESS ISPEXEC
ISREDIT MACRO (MEMBER) /* Member name passed */
/* as input */
ISREDIT LINE_AFTER .ZL='MEMBER MEMBER' /* Add member ID line */
ISREDIT (LINENBR) = LINENUM .ZL/* Get line number */
ISREDIT COPY AFTER .ZL MEMBER /* Copy member at end */
ISREDIT (NEWLL) = LINENUM .ZL /* Get new last line# */
IF LINENBR = NEWLL THEN /* If no data was */
EXIT 8/* copied, then exit */
ELSE DO
NEWNBR = LINENBR + 1
ISREDIT LABEL NEWNBR= .FIRST /* Label first */
/* line copied*/
ISREDIT RESET EXCLUDED /* Make sure there are */
/* no previously */
/* excluded lines*/
ISREDIT EXCLUDE ALL .FIRST .ZL /* Exclude newly */
/* copied lines */
ISREDIT FIND ALL .IM 1 .FIRST .ZL /* Show lines */
FINDRC = LASTCC /* containing .im */
/* in column 1 */
ISREDIT DELETE ALL X .FIRST .ZL /* Delete any lines*/
/* still excluded*/
ISREDIT (NEWLL) = LINENUM .ZL /* Update last line*/
/* number after delete */
IF FINDRC = 0 THEN/* If .im was found */
DO WHILE (LINENBR NEWLL) /* for all remaining */
/* copied lines */
LINENBR = LINENBR + 1/* Shift all .im */
ISREDIT SHIFT LINENBR ) 8 /* lines right 8 */
END
END
EXIT 1 /* Place cursor on */
/* command line */
ISRIMBED reads LIST:
.im imbedname1
**
.im imbedname2
**
.im imbedname3
This works great!
I also created ISRMBRS:
'ISREDIT MACRO (NESTMAC)'
/*/
/* Get dataid for data set and issue LMOPEN */
/*/
'ISREDIT (DATA1) = DATAID'
'ISREDIT (CURMEM) = MEMBER'
Address ispexec 'LMOPEN DATAID('data1') OPTION(INPUT)'
member = ' '
lmrc = 0
/*/
/* Loop through all members in the PDS, issuing the EDIT service for */
/* each. The macro specified on the ALLMEMS invocation is passed as */
/* an initial macro on the EDIT service call.*/
/*/
Do While lmrc = 0
Address ispexec 'LMMLIST DATAID('data1') OPTION(LIST),
MEMBER(MEMBER) STATS(NO)'
lmrc = rc
If lmrc = 0 member = curmem Then
do
Say 'Processing member' member
Address ispexec 'EDIT DATAID('data1') MEMBER('member')
MACRO('nestmac')'
end
End
/*/
/* Free the member list and close the dataid for the PDS.*/
/*/
Address ispexec 'LMMLIST DATAID('data1') OPTION(FREE)'
Address ispexec 'LMCLOSE DATAID('data1')'
Exit 0
From a test library (PMSBDH.IMACRO.TEST), not in my concatenation I EDIT a
member named TEST and key ISRMBRS ISRIMBED. This keeps failing saying the
member is in use. I did an ALTLIB Add to concatenate my PMSBDH.IMACRO Library.
It says PMSBDH.IMACRO.TEST(TEST) is in use by PMSBDH (me). If I look at the
message ISRE093 it says Or release the member from another logical screen. I
keep logging off and back on. But this does not resolve the issue. The MACRO
appears to be running as designed. I pass ISRIMBED to ISRMBRS. I get the
dataid for the data set and issue the LMOPEN. My last instruction is EDIT
DATAID(ISR1) MEMBER(TEST ) MACRO(isrimbed).
Q). What am I missing? The only thing I saw in tracing was the MEMBER name
had blanks at the end in the EDIT DATAID Call. How did I get a lock on my own
TEST member?
Thanks again, Dave

Dear List Groups, Thank you for the replies. I had a few things going on. #1). I cut and pasted the example from the book. I lost my quotes and had to put them back. As pointed out, the NOT EQUAL did not come across either. Also as pointed out, I can't EDIT what I'm already editing and a point was made for starting with VIEW instead of EDIT. #2). I changed the sample ISRIMBED to check that something valid got passed as the LIST name. I also changed the sample ISRMBRS to check that something valid got passed as the MACRO name. I identified I was trying to pass two parameters instead of one. ISRMBRS wants a MACRO name. If I gave it ISRSLREX and it worked fine because ISRSLREX didn't need any parameters. However ISRIMBED wants the LIST dataset name. I saw how they handled parameter lists in ISRCHGS. Thanks again for all the help I received on this. I also have been trying to convert from the CLIST look to the REXX look. I found some keywords like LINE needed the COL (like in ISRBOX) and I couldn't use COL.

If not, add it to the logon PROC or logon CLIST/EXEC or create a CLIST / EXEC that adds it via ALTLIB.

Re: Batch TSO COPY?
Group,
I have a copy of the old TSO DATA Utilities SC28-6765-4. I have it working.
It helps when you can find documentation. We do not have the help file loaded
and I didn't have a book or know what I was talking about.
I am still learning more about the MVS utilities. I did learn about SMC
(SMCOPY - documented in the TSO/E User's Guide etc.) thanks to Greg's post.
I was asked why I would use such an old thing. I came from the VM/VSE side
of the house and have been using COPY for a while on MVS. I now know about
SMCOPY and should probably use that.
The goal is to run a batch job to distribute files. The first job took a
printer definition and split it into two different printer definitions so job
class would now select which one to use. I have over 500 printer members and
didn't want any more practice with the 3.3 panel utility.
Thanks again for all the help and suggestions, Dave

From: Hansen, Dave L - Eagan, MN dave.l.han...@usps.gov Date: 05/15/2013 05:31 PM Dear Group, I have been looking at ways to FTP VSAM files between two z/OS systems. I learned that VSE totally supports FTPing of VSAM files, even when VSE is the server. But I don't have a VSE system to bounce my z/OS VSAM files off of. I found something called DDMFTP from the Microsoft Developers Network that works with the Host Integration Server 2004 using the stream input/output protocol of the IBM Distributed Data Management (DDM) architecture. It interoperates with a specific target DDM server implementation called IBM Distributed FileManager. The DDM server is available as a component of the IBM Data Facility Storage Management Subsystem (DFSMS). Does other software work with IBM's Distributed FileManager? I think I figured out VSAM is not supported under z/OS FTPD. To move a VSAM file it looks like I need to convert it to a flat file. Once you move the flat file you have all the VSAM work to get it back into a cluster. Q). Are there any other options (or software) I may be missing to move VSAM clusters between data centers? --- I think you will find that Connect:Direct for z/OS will do this for you. And if you configure it, you can have the data encrypted across the wire -- assuming that security is a concern. You could do an ADRDSSU to dump the VSAM cluster, then FTP the dumpds to the other z/OS system, where you can take ADRDSSU to restore it.

FW: Help with IBM Session Mgr Script
Group, Got no takers on this one. I asked IBM for help and they were very kind once again: *** Extract of IBM PMR *** The Waitappl for non-SNA sessions is looking for a 3270 WCC with the keyboard restore bit set from TSO. A non-SNA LU0 needs TSO to send the WCC to unlock the keyboard. With SNA LU2, the RU with EB (End-Bracket) or CD (Change Direction) will cause the keyboard to unlock and does not need the 3270 WCC keyboard restore flow. As for the reasons for WAITAPPL for both SNA and non-SNA, it is best to look at the actual 3270 flow for both types of sessions and then ensure the script handles the output flows. A simple method of doing this is to issue the ISM STARTSC OFF for your TSO session number to disable the startscript processing.

z/OS VSAM FTP Advice?
Dear Group, I have been looking at ways to FTP VSAM files between two z/OS systems. I learned that VSE totally supports FTPing of VSAM files, even when VSE is the server. But I don't have a VSE system to bounce my z/OS VSAM files off of. I found something called DDMFTP from the Microsoft Developers Network that works with the Host Integration Server 2004 using the stream input/output protocol of the IBM Distributed Data Management (DDM) architecture. It interoperates with a specific target DDM server implementation called IBM Distributed FileManager. The DDM server is available as a component of the IBM Data Facility Storage Management Subsystem (DFSMS). Does other software work with IBM's Distributed FileManager? I think I figured out VSAM is not supported under z/OS FTPD. To move a VSAM file it looks like I need to convert it to a flat file. Once you move the flat file you have all the VSAM work to get it back into a cluster. Q). Are there any other options (or software) I may be missing to move VSAM clusters between data centers?

But what's different is for ACTIVE SNA sessions. For these I see a waitappl DISPLAY and a pause. The waitappl is the last waitappl so it will default to DISPLAY. Q). Why do I need a waitappl for both the ACTIVE SNA and ACTIVE NON-SNA sessions when in the First part (above) we only do a waitappl for ACTIVE NON-SNA sessions?

Load Balancing and Interface Statements - LanGroup?
Valued helpers, We are running z/OS v1R13 and I am now looking at LanGroups. We changed from DEVICE/LINK statements to INTERFACE statements in our TCP/IP Config. Now I have one LanGroup and one VipaOwner instead of four LanGroups and four VipaOwners. I have looked through the IP Config reference and guide and I didn't find anything on LanGroups. I looked in the IP System administrator's commands under the Netstat Devlinks report and it talks about the IPv4 LAN Group Summary. It says The stack creates a LAN group when it detects redundant connectivity to a LAN. With DEVICE /LINK definitions: NETSTAT DEVL - LanGroup: 0001 NameStatus ArpOwnerVipaOwner --- --- - -- OSA9100LNK ACT OSA9100LNK Yes LanGroup: 0002 NameStatus ArpOwnerVipaOwner --- --- - -- OSA9000LNK ACT OSA9000LNK Yes LanGroup: 0003 NameStatus ArpOwnerVipaOwner --- --- - -- OSA9300LNK ACT OSA9300LNK Yes LanGroup: 0004 NameStatus ArpOwnerVipaOwner --- --- - -- OSA9200LNK ACT OSA9200LNK Yes With INTERFACE definitions: NETSTAT DEVL - LanGroup: 0001 NameStatus ArpOwnerVipaOwner --- --- - -- OSA9500LNK ACT OSA9500LNK No OSA9600LNK ACT OSA9600LNK No OSA9400LNK ACT OSA9400LNK Yes OSA9700LNK ACT OSA9700LNK No Q). Do these new LAN group assignments and VipaOwner assignments have any impact on Load Balancing across the four OSAs? Should we be concerned about these changes?

Valued Readers, I never heard back on this and called IBM. For a long time every time I print my IBM service request the first two lines of the next page are ‘missing”. However where these two lines should be printing is a big black bar that does not show up when viewing the SR. The big black bar only shows up at the top of the document when you view it before printing. I turned off headers and trailers and that only got rid of the “Page 1 of” at the top and the “https” at the bottom. I think this has been this way for a while.

I believe that static routes are always preferred over dynamic routes ... No. You need to become familiar with the description of the (NO)REPLACEABLE parameter of the ROUTE statement which, since it's not too much, the text of which follows: quote REPLACEABLE | NOREPLACEABLE Indicates whether or not the static route can be replaced by OMPROUTE and router advertisements when a dynamic route to the same destination is discovered. NOREPLACEABLE Indicates that static routes cannot be replaced by dynamic routes. The static route is always used to reach the destination, regardless of when dynamic routes are available. This is the default setting. This parameter can be abbreviated as NOREPL. REPLACEABLE Indicates that the static route can be replaced by OMPROUTE and router advertisements when a dynamic route to the same destination is discovered. This parameter can be abbreviated REPL. Restrictions: - Only one type (replaceable or nonreplaceable) of static route can be defined to the same destination. All static routes defined to a destination must match the type of the first static route defined to that destination. Any definitions that do not match that type are rejected. - Replaceable static routes cannot be defined to destination addresses that correspond to dynamic VIPAs for which the TCP/IP stack is a sysplex distributor target. Tip: You can use the Netstat ROUTE/-r RSTAT command to display all replaceable static routes currently configured. /quote http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/F1A1B4B1/2.9 With OMPROUTE (OSPF) does CommServer override ... a static route? Yes, if permitted by the specification of REPLACEABLE on the ROUTE statement. I am told the static routes in CommServer are only honoured until the dynamic routes get in the routing tables.[1] You have been told correctly - perhaps by someone who has read the description of the ROUTE statement - assuming, of course, that REPLACEABLE has been specified on the ROUTE statement. And then I'm told these dynamic routes will take preference to the static routes. The issue - and I mean issue in its traditional sense, not the recently emerged euphemism so favoured between the shining seas but most regrettably spreading throughout the supposedly English-speaking world - does not arise. The replaced static routes will have disappeared. Check the display of the routing table, the actual one, NETSTAT ROUTE, not the OMPROUTE one. Perhaps you need to appreciate that the IP logic of Communications Server provides an API for OMPROUTE to use in order to manage the routing table. I first encountered probably a rudimentary version of this API when teaching myself the socket API from the description of the C sockets API, the only API - not counting Pascal - at the time. Among the options of the ioctl() call, you find the so-called commands SIOCADDRT and SIOCDELRT. That - together with the rtrouteh.h structure - told me all I needed to know about how dynamic routing protocol programs worked. Does this mean that CommServer's OSPF can override ... a ... route that ... was established with a static definition? Yes. Be aware that the operation of the routing table can these days be adjusted by use of Policy-based routing - I assume based on the name of the function. This is a function with which I have yet to acquaint myself. http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/F1A1B3B1/1.6.17 - [1] Note that, since I was obliged to correct a couple of typos, I took a liberty in correcting another! - Chris Mason On Fri, 23 Nov 2012 11:42:27 -0600, Hansen, Dave L - Eagan, MN dave.l.han...@usps.gov wrote: Group, We are embattled over the question of static routes.
