Veteran sysprog asks dumb question

OK, after 25 years as a sysprog this should not confuse me, but... A previous systems programmer left these canned jobs to clone a res pack to a new one for maintenance purposes. Simple right? I run the first job, vary off, init, varyon, ipltext, setcache, etc and then the copy step fails. PAGE

Re: Veteran sysprog asks dumb question

I think Jack is on to something here. I've been here 6 weeks and I am NOT an sms guru. Could very well be the acs rules. My new peers are telling me that these cloner jobs have recently (weeks ago) run fine but only the sys1.* datasets are getting copied. All the ones like these fail:

Re: SMS Dataset Allocation Problem

Most people are running on VIRTUAL disks anyway. z/os may see a 2105 or a 2107 but in most cases its tiny little brown round and spinning in RAID 5 on the SAN so it doesn't much matter any more. We used to place datasets on disks in accordance to their activity level and distance from the VTOC. To

If you want to learn about MVS you could install a free version on a PC. Look for mvsj38 or something like that on the cbttape site. Google should help you find it. Ken Klein Sr. Systems Programmer Kentucky Farm Bureau Insurance - Louisville kenneth.kl...@kyfb.com 502-495-5000 x7011
