Doh!

ls -la, not la -la

Fingers faster than brain.

All this assumes that you wanted the command to list the files, rather than 
making the FTP server always list 'hidden' files. If it's the latter you want, 
I've no idea. 😊

IBM Semeru Runtime Certified Edition for z/OS, Version 11 is now available!

2021-11-19 Thread Yuan Jie Song 
IBM Semeru Runtime Certified Edition for z/OS, Version 11, is the latest 
release of Java SDK on z/OS. It provides a fundamental platform for building 
highly robust, scalable and reliable modern enterprise applications. In an ever 
connected world, as clients embark on their digital transformation journey on 
z/OS, Java 11 is essential for enabling their new workloads on premise and 
across cloud platforms. This SDK delivers support for Java 11 Standard Edition 
specification, provides new language features, and enables developers to build 
Java applications on any platforms and deploy them onto z/OS.

This release contains performance enhancements that enable companies to 
leverage the benefits of IBM Z scalability, reliability, availability, and 
serviceability, including exploitation of latest IBM Z hardware features.  It 
contains a new OpenJCEPlus security provider offering optimized performance 
through exploitation of cryptographic hardware on IBM Z and enabling the 
cryptographic algorithms required for TLS V1.3 support in the OpenJCEPlus 
provider.  It is designed to provide clients with the capability to test and 
deploy Java applications in a 64-bit environment, run Java code on zIIP 
processor engines, and use valuable z/OS functions such as a Batch Launcher for 
running Java applications as batch jobs or started tasks, and direct access to 
traditional z/OS data and key z/OS system services.

Other capabilities and performance improvements include pause-less garbage 
collection (GC) reducing GC pause-times for response-time sensitive and large 
heap applications, Data Access Accelerator, cryptographic acceleration via CP 
Assist for Cryptographic Functions (CPACF) and vector hardware instructions.  
The Java Virtual Machine (JVM) transparently exploits hardware Transactional 
Memory to improve scalability of synchronized regions within multithreaded 
application code. Furthermore, the JVM dynamically adapts to changing system 
resource and capacity from System Recovery Boost for z/OS, by auto-scaling of 
garbage collection and JIT compilation threads.

Please note that starting Version 11, IBM SDK for z/OS, Java Technology Edition 
has been renamed to IBM Semeru Runtime Certified Edition for z/OS.  This 
rebranding aligns the naming for Java on the z/OS platform with that on other 
platforms where OpenJDK class libraries are similarly powered by the Eclipse 
OpenJ9 JVM technology. The Semeru name originates from the tallest mountain on 
the island of Java in Indonesia, called Mount Semeru.

IBM SDK for z/OS Version 8 contains IBM security implementation whereas IBM 
Semeru Runtime Certified Edition for z/OS Version 11 contains the OpenJDK 
security implementation. Differences between these implementations might 
require code changes to your applications. For more details, refer to the 
Semeru Runtimes security migration guide 
. For 
additional information about compatibility and migration, visit IBM 
Documentation . IBM intends 
to deliver other z/OS-specific extensions for IBM Semeru Runtime Certified 
Edition for z/OS Version 11 over time with service refreshes.

How to obtain IBM Semeru Runtime Certified Edition for z/OS, Version 11?
IBM Semeru Runtime Certified Edition for z/OS, Version 11 is available for zero 
license charge through Shopz (5655-DGJ) SMP/E, or you can download the 
non-SMP/E here .  The 
subscription and service number is 5655-I48.

Is there a field that would reflect LPAR soft-capping?

2021-11-19 Thread Charles Mills 
I am thinking about coding an STC that would "do something" if LPAR
soft-capping kicked in. Is there a field somewhere in z/OS that gives the
MSU capacity of the LPAR *and that would change to reflect the effect of
soft-capping*?

This is for internal use, so I would be willing to bear the risks of a
non-GUPI field.

Thanks,

Charles

2021-11-19 Thread Carmen Vitullo 
we used part of Mark Zelden's IPLINFO Rexx  on MSU usage, the field we 
use is


  RCTLACS

I'd think you would need the defined MSU's (RCTIMGWU)  also and compare 
the fields?


Check Marks IPLINFO, I think that would have everything you'd need.

of course there are other tools from other vendors but I think if you 
want to build your own I'd be using the some fields Mark uses.


just my 2 cents

Re: Is there a field that would reflect LPAR soft-capping?

2021-11-19 Thread Charles Mills 
@Carmen, thanks, that is a huge help. RCTLACS is documented as

Long-term average CPU service used by this logical partition, in millions of 
service units per hour. If this value is above the partition’s defined 
capacity, the partition will be capped. It is calculated using the physical CPU 
adjustment factor (RCTPCPUA) so it may not match other measures of service 
which are based on the logical CPU adjustment factor. It is available if the 
hardware supports LPAR cluster

we used part of Mark Zelden's IPLINFO Rexx  on MSU usage, the field we 
use is

   RCTLACS

I'd think you would need the defined MSU's (RCTIMGWU)  also and compare 
the fields?

Check Marks IPLINFO, I think that would have everything you'd need.

of course there are other tools from other vendors but I think if you 
want to build your own I'd be using the some fields Mark uses.

2021-11-19 Thread Carmen Vitullo 
Charles I think the RCTIMGWU field is what you are looking for, in short 
it's defined as


Image defined MSU's -  as the softcap is changed that value is updated, 
I'm not 100% sure that's what your asking, if not sorry.


Mark's Rexx performs some calculations to report on used MSU's on a 
rolling 4hr average and the unused MSU for the 4hr average

@Carmen, thanks, that is a huge help. RCTLACS is documented as

Long-term average CPU service used by this logical partition, in millions of 
service units per hour. If this value is above the partition’s defined 
capacity, the partition will be capped. It is calculated using the physical CPU 
adjustment factor (RCTPCPUA) so it may not match other measures of service 
which are based on the logical CPU adjustment factor. It is available if the 
hardware supports LPAR cluster

Using HTTPS from JCL for file download?

2021-11-19 Thread Billy Ashton 

Hi all, I am back!
After successfully getting my FTPS and SFTP JCL set up and working right 
here, some manager got a bee in his bonnet to say that he wanted to use 
HTTPS protocol from his JCL, because he read that HTTPS was the best way 
to go. I tried to explain that HTTPS was meant for browser applications, 
and that some special application would be needed to process the HTTPS 
headers and data, but he insisted I try to find a way to make HTTPS work 
from JCL.


So...can this be done? Can a batch JCL job run HTTPS to do file 
downloads? If so, can you help a brother out and let me see how you do 
it, so I can see if we can do it here?


I appreciate this group - if it can be known, someone here will know it!

I use HTTPS from batch JCL, it works very well .

IBM provides this option on shopz once your order is placed.

my company requires us to go thru the proxy server so I have to provide 
my LAN ID and Password to pass thru the proxy


I can provide some sample JCL but that JCL is the same as what IBM 
provides on Shopz, your site requirements I'm sure are different, I've 
been as site that do not require me to use the proxy , both options work

The issue is you need an HTTPS client program to run in a job step. 
Supplied with the z/OS base there is no HTTPS client program equivalent to 
the z/OS Comm Server FTP client program.  Some applications, like SMP/E, 
have a built-in HTTPS client program to perform file download, but it is 
specific for use by SMP/E and not for general use.  I expect some folks 
will chime in to recommend CURL or similar, but you'll have to obtain, 
install, and configure that if you don't already have it.  You could use 
the HTTP Web Enablement Toolkit to write your own client program even in 
REXX, but out of the box a fully functional HTTPS client program is not 
readily available.

If your question is specific to SMP/E file downloads using HTTPS, then 
check this out:
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/2.5.0?topic=guide-preparing-secure-internet-delivery


The short answer is just add these to your  specification and let 
'er rip:
  downloadmethod=”https”
  downloadkeyring=”javatruststore”

However, if your question was for a general use HTTPS download client 
program, then see my previous post.

Thanks. IRAQVS seems to have a bunch of useful stuff in it.

The rest is NetView stuff to return the requested information back to the
caller, so I'll leave that to you!

"configure"?  Just put it in your executable search path.
Everything else is in the (too many?) command line options.

"The zEDC (zEnterprise® Data Compression) Express® adapter and the

in the zEnterprise Data Compression documentation for version 8, are not 
currently supported. As a result, the CPU consumption and performance of

affected. Support is intended to be added in a later release."


That seems... not good. Simple use of zEDC compression was one nice 
feature of Java on z/OS.
