Re: z/OS 2.5 and RMF - plus the migration manual from z/OS 2.4.
Thanks for the information on RMF and it was there in the doc and delivered parmlib, I simply over looked it. And thank you Marna for the link to the migration process exported from z/OSMF, and yes, after I get z/OS 2.5 up and running I will be converted to using z/OSMF.

Before my first IPL, I review the contents of it for datasets that do not exist in my current APF/LNKLST and add them. Same with LPALST00 member in same library, where you will find the SYS21.GRBLPA entry. There are actually a number of members (if not all) that you'd want to review. IFAPRD00 is another. -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN

You can query any element with SMP to determine where it is located. From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List on behalf of Richbourg, Claude Sent: Monday, November 15, 2021 4:06 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: z/OS 2.5 and RMF - plus the migration manual from z/OS 2.4. Good afternoon everyone, Two things that I noticed with z/OS 2.5 so far and I have a couple of questions for the group. Q1: RMF would not start after the first IPL of z/OS 2.5. The program ERBMFMFC is not in the SYS1.SERBLNKE library that came with z/OS 2.5. I went looking for it and found it in the z/OS 2.4 library - SYS1.SERBLINK. Now, in z/OS 2.5 there is no SYS1.SERBLPA and SYS1.SERBLINK libraries any more, only the SYS1.SERBLNKE file. What have I missed here and where is that program now located? RMF is licensed for our site, so everything needed to run it should be here in our z/OS 2.5. Q2: I don't have the migration manual from z/OS 2.4 to z/OS 2.5 anywhere in the CPAC.** files and it was not in the IBM online pdf files downloaded for z/OS 2.5. Is the only place to get it within z/OSMF? I had thought it would be available to the early serverpac installers, (before January 22), so have I missed that one as well? We do not have z/OSMF up and going yet, hence the early order.

Re: z/OS 2.5 and RMF - plus the migration manual from z/OS 2.4.
Hello Claude, A1: it is likely that you did not put SGRBLPA in the LPALST. Please see *all* the RMF parmlib, proclib, and security considerations associated with the RMF restructure in z/OS V2.5 in the z/OSMF V2.5 Upgrade Workflow, step called "RMF: Determine updates for RMF structural changes". A2. The z/OS Migration manual hasn't been provided since z/OS V2.4. In its place, is the z/OS Upgrade Workflow. I do recommend you use the z/OS Upgrade Workflow from z/OSMF itself, for the best experience. However, if you don't wish to do that, the contents of the Workflow have been exported and can be found here: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/2.4.0?topic=SSLTBW_2.4.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r4.e0zm100/Export_zOS_V2R3_to_V2R5_Upgrade_Workflow.html After your upgrade to z/OS V2.5, I hope that you plan on getting z/OSMF up and running :).

Re: z/OS 2.5 and RMF - plus the migration manual from z/OS 2.4.
Take a look at SGRBLINK and SGRBLPA datasets. They replace SERBLINK and SERBLPA that were used in previous releases of RMF. Mark Jacobs Sent from ProtonMail, Swiss-based encrypted email.
