SETLOCK OBTAIN

Hi all, I have the following piece of code running on many SRBs to give serialisation. SETLOCK OBTAIN, TYPE=CML,ASCB=(11), PRIMARY ADDRESS SPACE MODE=UNCOND,

Re: SETLOCK OBTAIN

Sorry should have added. My situation, multiple SRBs in a single address space, some of which might be non-dispatchable, doesn't appear to match any of the subcodes of the S073 abend. I suspect this will be some variant of s073 but not 100% sure. Ron.

Re: Backlevel IPCS issue at z/OS 1.13

Mark, Your CLIST is almost identical to my REXX exec. Except I have to push the TSOLIB command onto the stack as it won't run under rexx, even with an address TSO in front, and I therefore also push ISPF as well. I tried typing in your commands at the TSO ready prompt. Still no joy

Backlevel IPCS issue at z/OS 1.13

Hi all, I've got a REXX exec that sets up an IPCS environment for z/OS levels other than my current release. We have SYSRES volumes for every release but don't have all the levels IPLed. With this REXX exec I can select a version of IPCS modules/panels/ for every release of z/OS

Shane, Thanks. I've downloaded the Data Areas manuals, but as you say they're a) PDF and b) not indexed into Librarian/reader, although I guess I can build an index too. Perhaps someone in IBM, or anyone else in the know, can comment on - Why the Data Areas stuff was dropped from

How to allocate multiple uncataloged datasets?

individually I get the correct, uncataloged, files allocated. If I allocate both together I get the cataloged versions. What am I doing wrong? How do you allocate multiple uncataloged versions of datasets? Thanks in advance, Ron MacRae

Re: How fast is XCF

the numbers you quote it seems it is possible for XCF to significantly outperform TCPIP, which is the question I was asking, so it is going to be worth my company's time to investigage further why our XCF response times are so poor. Thanks for your time input. Regards, Ron MacRae

Re: IPCS Dump. How can you see the stack?

of options, well worth spending the time to RTFM. There is some stuff in the MVS IPCS commands book and more in the Language Environment Debugging Guide If you need all the specific registers at all levels you need to run the R13 save area chain. Regards, Ron MacRae. On Mon, 23 Jul 2007 15:21

Appologies if anyone got this twice, it didn't seem to come through first time. Guys, At the time that real 3390s were replaced by RVA/ICEBERG DASD we threw away all our DASD allocation guidelines on blocksizes and space allocation as RVA compressed the track anyway before storing only the
