Some people activate a Coupling Facility LPAR with a z/OS CP in dyndisp=no
mode: its weight represents the number MSU which you want consume without
billing because these MSUs doesn't enter in the SW bill.
As all functions of capping, it's a technical way. You need to search for a
financial way.
If this is only system REXX issue, there is an example of using
AXRMLWTO in the MVS Authorized Assembler Services Guide:

The reason is our EMK server on z/OS V1.9 does not
have any message IDs, so all we get is the following text:
Server is running. TCP port: 3801, SSL port: 1443
Seems like inacceptable behaviour for a software to be run
on z/OS. I'd try to open a PMR requesting identifiable messages.

I have already done that. A requirements hasw been accepted. But with

Hi,
I’ve encountered something in Syncsort, and I’m looking for an explanation.
One of our users used Syncsort to copy a dataset.
The input file had 93386 tracks in 10 extents.
The output file had 64815 tracks in 2 extents.
Both files are LRECL=27904 BLKSIZE=27998 RECFM=VB

Gadi,
May Syncsort truncate the record if trailing x'00'' or blanks are padded at
end of some of the records? I would look into the shorter records in the
file to see if they are realy shorter...

When using VB, some code will write a short block if the space remaining in the
current block is less than the DCB LRECL, even though the actual length of the
next record is unknown. This results in a lot of short blocks, particularly
when the LRECL is large, as in this case.

Our IMS system periodically submits batch jobs to offload its logs. Of
course the job never fails until we run for 9 days unattended over the
Christmas break. Some unexplained event caused the twin fiber links to
our VTS to drop offline for about 10 minutes, generating sticky messages

If you have some sort of automation package like Mainview for IMS or
AutoOperator, you could have it change your archive job to use DASD
rather than tape when it sees your VTS's go boxed. Then your IMS's
don't go belly up because they ran out of OLDS, and your archives don't
get backed up either.

Hi Ben,
We don't have IMS, but we do have other tasks that submit jobs, so pehaps this
method will be helpful - it works well for us.
We have the submitted JCL IEFBR14 allocate and catalog a dataset instead of
running the 'real' job. We tell our scheduling system (ZEKE) to submit a job

Hi Everyone,
I ran the Histogram utility on both files:
On the first file, the maximum block was a bit over 16k and most were about 2k.
On the second file most of the blocks were over 25k.
So it seems the Syncsort did some major reblocking which caused the savings in
both space and access
