Re: RMF spreadsheet from WEB (Browser)

I use the RMF Spreadsheet Reporter and create spreadsheets/graphs on a monthly basis. I FTP the results over to a z/OS ZFS file and access them through my website via the HTTP server. mike Michael Schmutzok Sr Systems Programmer Shands HealthCare (352) 265-0680 x85465

Re: [Fwd: REXX and VTAM command responses]

I had this problem with multi-line output from JES2 commands (e.g. $DSPOOL). I was only getting the first line of the output. I opened an incident with IBM and eventually we came up with the solution. I had to recursively re-issue the AXRCMD command, minus the actual command itself. I went

Re: General MPF exit using SYSREXX (SySTEM REXX)

GET requests (a monitoring agent in our case). The MPF exit code [shell] is pretty generic and can be found in multiple places on the CBTTAPE. You could just lift out the system REXX code and stuff it into an MPF exit shell. mike Michael Schmutzok Sr Systems Programmer Shands HealthCare

Re: RMF Spreadsheet Reporter

I've never created the working set directly from the SMF data. I create the overview records first and then create the working set from that. e.g.: 1) Select SMF data set 2) Create overview records (submits batch job) 3) Retrieve the overview file from mainframe 4) Select the overview file and

SNMP sub-agent code is available

For those of you who've requested it, the source code for our user written SNMP sub-agent is now available as file 805 on the CBT tape in the Updates section. The source code is written in assembler. http://www.cbttape.org/ Michael Schmutzok Sr Systems Programmer Shands HealthCare sch

Re: sending snmp traps from z/OS

It can be done but it does require a lot of research and you get to become real familiar with the SNMP RFC's. We've used the DPI to create a sub-agent, register it with the agent (SNMP), send SNMP traps (also using TRAPFWD) and handle GET requests from other platforms. Don Poitras [EMAIL

Re: Sending zOS traps to Nimbus

We also have Nimbus in house and also noticed it didn't have any mainframe capabilities. So, after looking at it's possibilities, I mentioned it might be possible to send some data to Nimbus. Little did I to know what that statement would cause me... So, I wound up with the honor of finding

ABEND S530 / Wait State 040 - IEAVNPDC

Hello. Awhile ago, I applied maintenance to my test system. After an initial period of testing/burn-in, it was decided to put the maintenance into production. I did a disk copy of the test sysres volume, including the IPLTEXT and created a copy of the test ROOT ZFS dataset.

Re: ABEND S530 / Wait State 040 - IEAVNPDC

The first thing I looked at was to see what we had in GRS. The only member we have is the GRSCNF00 member and it has one statement in it (GRSDEF SYNCHRES(YES). I also thought it might be an issue with both being up so I brought the test system down and tried to bring up just the production

Simple OSA-Express question.....

For redundancy's sake, we are purchasing another OSA-Express card soon. The issue is that we only have one free ESCON channel available and the OSA card requires two (one for each port). The manuals seem to assume that you're going to define the pair at the same time. My question is, can I just

Re: Simple OSA-Express question.....

Ok, I feel stupid now (ok, more so than I usually do). I momentarily got the channel ports confused with CHPID numbers. I'm not anywhere near the 256 CHPID limit so I've got plenty of those to choose from. Case closed and thank you gentlemen for jogging my memory. :o)

Re: Lost consoles

Yes, you can get these consoles back without an IPL. This has happened to us several times and I've not had to IPL once so far. There are two situations that we get. One, you can still get a connection to the OSA-ICC from your TN3270E emulator (the OSA-ICC status information is displayed). The

RMF report - field description

I run certain daily RMF report class reports, the output of which I process with REXX. I pull out the values I need and graph them. Today I ran into a problem that I have been unable to resolve so far. When looking at the service units of a report class report, I see this: ---SERVICE IOC

Re: RMF report - field description

I'm with Ken on that one. The numbers I give in the example are real numbers - I cut and pasted them into the email. They represent an 8 hour period (second shift). Using the definitions stated earlier by others, I can't get the numbers to add up either. What has also got me scratching my head

Re: Job scheduling

I have batch Rexx execs that I use to dynamically create and submit JCL. I can schedule the primary job through our scheduler, however, since the primary job creates and submits the secondary job, the scheduler knows nothing about it. Hence, the need to control the secondary job via an alternate

Re: CLEAR SUBCHANNEL INTERRUPT MISSING on OSA ICC

We had a similar incident where we lost our ICC consoles. It took a call into IBM and a complicated procedure to get them back. Afterwards, we received an email which admitted there was a known bug and gave us a work around (unknown when patch would be out). Don't know if this will help you or

Setting speed/mode for OSA Express on the fly

I can't seem to find the answer to this in the OSA manuals so I thought I'd run it by here.. Two weeks ago, we upgraded to a z890-A04. With this z890 came two OSA Express 1000Base-T Ethernet cards. I have configured Port 0 on one of the cards for TCPIP traffic (using QDIO) and port 1 is
